To all readers of Tonbori News:

We sincerely thank you for your continued support and patronage.

Tomorrow marks the start of Golden Week. While we are seeing a steady recovery in travel demand this year, there is also a noticeable trend towards "saving money and staying close to home" due to rising prices.

Since last year's World Expo, Dotonbori Shopping Street has been welcoming many customers every day.

Due to the increase in inbound tourism, awareness campaigns are being conducted in cooperation with the Osaka City Construction Bureau and the Osaka Prefectural South Police Station to address illegal use of public spaces. The Seika Rengo Shinko-cho Association also conducts similar activities regularly.

Our shopping association is steadily preparing for the general meeting in May, while continuing to hold active discussions within the owners' committee.

Although the situation remains unpredictable due to the tense global situation and the successive natural disasters in Japan, we will work together with you to create a safe and vibrant town.

I hope you all have a fruitful Golden Week.
