Japan set the target to double the Foreign Direct Invest into Japan to around 5% of GDP by 2010, and promotes further FDI which brings new technology, management know-how and opportunity of employment. The Expert Committee on FDI Promotion issued "Five Recommendations Toward the Drastic Expansion of Foreign Direct Investment in Japan" in May 2008. Japan also revised "the Program for the Acceleration of Foreign Direct Investment in Japan" in December 2008 in order to incorporate the Five Recommendations in the program.
