Immigration Policies Spark Campaign.

Ahead of the upcoming election, the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and its coalition partners have unveiled a new policy package aimed at stricter immigration controls. The proposals include a goal of zero illegal immigration. More stringent rules regarding land purchases by foreign nationals. A potential population strategy to be drafted by 2027 that would set numerical caps on foreign residents. These measures are designed to address public anxiety over the rapid increase in foreign workers, though they face pushback from industries reliant on international labor.
