Her objective is to increase the visitor count from Japan through the development of literature and other initiatives in the Japanese language. Nishitani made the arrangements for the meetings but was en route to Japan when we attempted to contact her later. The numbers of Japanese tourists to U.S. destinations are on the rise and we can capitalize on our tropical destination and golf courses which are very high on the list of Japanese tourists. Among items discussed with Business Journal publisher Mel Plaskett and his managing editor and marketing director are plans to translate the Blazing Photos-Business Journal Internet Photo Web Tour into Japanese.

Business development is also high on the list of possible joint cooperative efforts.
