This week’s topic ties in nicely with YU’s comment on the last entry about English translations on restaurant menus. <\/p>\n
I read an article the other day about plans that are being made to make Japan more “visitor-friendly” in time for the Olympic games, and including English on menus was one of the suggestions. <\/p>\n
Personally, I think that is one area in which Japan is already outstanding because of the common practice here of having models of all the food displayed in the window and\/or photos of everything in the menu. <\/p>\n
I also think Japanese public transport is quite visitor-friendly. It is definitely more so than my own country’s public transport, which is, quite frankly, baffling even for natives!<\/p>\n
To be honest, I cannot think of any major changes that Japan has to make, apart from making sure that there are enough translators in key places like police stations and hospitals. <\/p>\n
Based either on your own experiences in foreign countries or on the experiences of people you know who have visited Japan, how ready do you think Tokyo is for the big event? What changes would you make if you were in charge?<\/p>\n
Look forward to hearing your thoughts. <\/p>\n
