On November 14th, China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a travel advisory, stating that social security in Japan has been unstable this year, with frequent criminal cases targeting Chinese citizens. There have been multiple incidents of Chinese nationals being attacked in Japan, some of which remain unsolved, and the security environment for Chinese citizens in Japan continues to deteriorate. Recently, Japanese leaders have openly made provocative statements regarding Taiwan, which has seriously worsened the atmosphere for China-Japan exchanges and brought significant risks to the personal safety and lives of Chinese citizens in Japan.
