B: Why is that? What happened?

B: Wow, that's serious! What should we watch out for?

A: They suggested paying attention to announcements from the Chinese Embassy and Consulate-Generals in Japan.
B: That sounds like a good idea. I wonder what caused this?

A: It seems like it's because of some comments made by Japan's Prime Minister, Takaichi Sanae, about Taiwan. She said that a military emergency over Taiwan could threaten Japan's survival.

A: Yup, that's what I heard. Japan is usually very popular among Hong Kong travelers, with about 2.68 million visitors from Hong Kong in 2024. Hopefully things get better soon!
