ROAD TO RECOVERY, CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES:
Japan's economy has recovered sharply from its fall after the Great East Japan Earthquake and tsunami disaster. Real GDP in the July-September quarter 2011 grew by 5.6 per cent the industrial production has picked up to the level near that before the disaster. However, due to a deceleration in overseas economies and their low appreciation of the yen, the recent economic activity is on a slowdown trend. Exports have flattened out and the pace of industrial production has decelerated visibly since last summer.
