TOKYO -- Japan's passport
has been named as the
"world's most powerful"
for the second
consecutive year
for visa-free travel.
Japanese passport holders
visit 190 countries and
regions visa-free,
or by
applying for one on arrival.
Singapore tied for first place,
followed by South Korea,
whose passport holders
can visit 188 countries
and
territories visa-free.
However, Japanese have
shown comparatively little
interest in traveling
abroad.
The share of Japanese with
a passport is the lowest
among
the Group of Seven
and Japanese students
studying overseas have
declined from the peak.
