Taiwan News: Japan to Allow Taiwan Citizens Visa-Free Entry
Nikkei reported on August 1, 2005 that Japan House of Representatives
(Shugiin) has passed a bill to make it permanent to waive the visa requirements for Taiwanese visiting Japan in short terms (shorter than 90 days). It will become law after Japan House of Councillors (Diet) also passed it on Friday. Currently Taiwan visitors to Japan are included in the temporary visa-waiver program from March to September for the Aichi Expo 2005. South Korea is also on the list for the temporary program.

So it's not about being grateful on the part of the Chinese. |
