The catastrophic incident of Japan last March had pulled down the numbers of tourists into half from visiting them. As we recall the said incident, it was first an earthquake that triggered a tsunami that also causes for a nuclear disaster at Fukushima Dai-ichi Power Plant. It was reported that almost 20,000 had been confirmed dead and more than 80,000 were forced to moved because of the radiation concerns from the nuclear plant.

With this, Japan Tourism Agency came out of a desperate idea in order to tempt tourists back on visiting Japan. They proposed an unprecedented campaign of 10,000 free round-trip tickets.

But how are we going to avail this tempt?

You just need to exposed to the public or publicize your trip to Japan on blogs and social media sites. Simply write the details of your travel to Japan and also explain what you were expecting to get from the trip. If ever you got lucky and grab a ticket for your round trip to Japan, please be informed that you will be the one to pay for your own accommodation and meals. After your trip, you will be required to write a review of your travel experiences and scatter it online.

Japan Tourism agency says that they're planning of opening a website where interested parties can submit their application for the free tickets. They also requested more than a billion yen to pay for the tourism blitz. "We are hoping to get highly influential blogger-types, and other who can spread the word that Japan is a safe place to visit. If lawmakers approve the funding, visitors could begin signing up as early as next April," said Kazuyoshi Sato, with the agency.
