From the article:
Japan is set to ease its stringent COVID-19 entry ban on foreigners next month ahead of the new university academic year on 1 April.
Strict border controls have kept out thousands of international university students, dealing a blow to the internationalisation of Japan’s higher education, and many universities are concerned that damage has already been done to Japan’s reputation as a country that welcomes international students.
