The Louvre Museum

Image
 The Louvre Museum in Paris, France, the largest museum in the world, was forced to close on June 16, 2025 due to a sudden strike by employees. The staff claim that the museum is about to be crushed by a large number of tourists. The Louvre has a variety of problems, including water leaks, temperature fluctuations, aging infrastructure, and visitors far exceeding the tolerance range.  I strongly understood that Japan is not the only country where overtourism is a hot topic. I don't hear many examples of strikes in Japan, but I feel that there are many overseas. If there were many Japanese people who could express their opinions strongly, such a case would also occur, and in such a case, I feel that Japan is more crowded with people than other countries. https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/19fe2fae24e4b064aa809f7e4067f99b58afd64e?page=1

inbound

 "OSAKA Satellite EXPO 2025", a festival event for inbound tourists, will be held from July 1 to October 31, 2025, set at major tourist spots such as Umeda, Shinsaibashi, and Osaka Castle in Osaka. At the event, in addition to free distribution of the original "Happy Happi" that allows you to receive special benefits such as discounts at the target store by wearing it, "Mirai Sketch Park" where you can enjoy digital drawing on an LCD tablet, the operation of the inbound bus tour "The XR RIDE", the gift of cosmetic samples, and the implementation of a mystery walk of the popular anime "Detective Conan". I felt that holding such an event in Osaka, which is attracting attention at the Expo, was effective. In addition, I felt that the number of booths that seemed to be popular with foreigners was good. https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/6621ce52accd6e0c24d2c073578120b58e724581

 The order sale of goods in collaboration with Sanrio and Chiikawa, which are very popular among young people in Japan, has been announced. The order sale of goods in collaboration with Sanrio and Chiikawa, which are very popular among young people in Japan, has been announced. SNS was full of posts expressing frustration and sadness for those who could not buy it. After reading this news, I felt that such products, such as selling out in just a few minutes and being sold to order in a few days, are an industry that can expect great economic benefits. Also, when I chose this news, I was attracted by the cuteness and motivated to buy it. I felt that popular and cute character goods are amazing things that make me want to buy them as soon as I saw them at first sight. https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/329c5ad42f458fc3a40b6979eb81f4fd913b8d0b

animate

 Animate is a specialty store for Japanese anime, comics, and games. Japanese culture such as anime is popular all over the world, and there are animates around the world, mainly in the Asian region. It was announced that such a store would open as a pop-up store in Paris. Seeing this news, I felt that Japanese anime culture, which had spread to Europe, was very amazing, and that it could be regarded as an important export. Interest in this culture, which does not stop increasing in popularity at home and abroad, arose even more. Recently, there is a high awareness of inbound in the world, so I think it is a very hot topic. https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/67f13dc579bd064914ce8e9b2a013c844e351eca

mister donuts

 Mister Donut, a popular donut shop, has launched a new product called Mochurin. Mochurin is a product that sells a new texture that is different from mochimochi. Many people gathered at Mister Donut in search of this Mochurin, and some stores were sold out. After seeing this topic, I realized again that new products are very economically effective. I thought it was difficult to create a new product that was highly talked about, but it was important. https://trilltrill.jp/articles/4108974

Rice shortage

Image
 Japan is now seeing a significant increase in the price of rice. Therefore, the government is taking measures to release the reserve of rice. However, the release of stockpiled rice is not only good, but also causing bad things. The warehouse company that stores the stored rice has been damaged. This is because the company has not received the storage fee that it can receive.  I realized the reason why the stock of rice is not released in large quantities at once. I reaffirmed that the market mechanism is difficult. https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/87e9ba42f6688f4d7bef01747124590d6d837914

Reflection

Image
 After listening to Ms.Duquette presentation, I learned that it is important to have experience. Her final activities and present are the revitalization of the region and the transmission of charm. However, I was very surprised to hear that she had visited and worked in many countries until she reached it. When I heard that my girlfriend, who was not good at studying English in that life, was able to speak English, and I felt that I wanted to do my best. And what she noticed when she returned to Japan was, "The merchandise you love was what you can sell the most easiest." Hearing that, I had a strong sympathy. Because I thought that what I like was the most understandable and introduceable. So I thought about making my group's activities based on my likes and experiences. Also, I learned that the key to the SDGs is who buys from the supply chain and what it consumes. I think this is also important in learning economics. I also learned that tourism and education have an in...
