EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australian Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LOCAL INFORMATION
GEOGRAPHY AND POPULATION Japan is made up of four large islands (Hokkaido Honshu Shikoku and Kyushu) and about 6000 smaller ones including the Okinawa chain of islands Much of the population of about 1277 million is concentrated in the major cities of Tokyo Yokohama Osaka Nagoya Kobe and Kyoto Japan is the tenth most highly populated country in the world and also amongst the most densely populated at 338 people per square kilometre In Tokyo population density is around 6000 people per square kilometre
LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party The principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorism in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 implemented heightened security measures at key facilities including on public transport and at ports of entry
Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents ofbag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have
FOl1501415 25 Serial 1
daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECTRICITY The electricity supply in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US sty Ie
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7 -Eleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7shyEleven) EFTPOS facilities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash only
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the $A The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10shy15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlucky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and non-official circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms
FOI 1501415 26 Serial 1
with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730

The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park

Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australian Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party The principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorism in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 implemented heightened security measures at key facilities including on public transport and at ports of entry
Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents ofbag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have
FOl1501415 25 Serial 1
daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECTRICITY The electricity supply in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US sty Ie
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7 -Eleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7shyEleven) EFTPOS facilities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash only
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the $A The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10shy15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlucky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and non-official circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms
FOI 1501415 26 Serial 1
with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECrRICITY The electricity suppLy in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US style
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7middotEleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7-Eleven) EFTPOS facUities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash onLy

The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australian Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents ofbag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have

FOI 1501415 26 Serial 1
with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australian Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party The principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorism in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 implemented heightened security measures at key facilities including on public transport and at ports of entry
Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents ofbag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have
FOl1501415 25 Serial 1
daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECTRICITY The electricity supply in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US sty Ie
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7 -Eleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7shyEleven) EFTPOS facilities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash only
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the $A The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10shy15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlucky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and non-official circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms
FOI 1501415 26 Serial 1
with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECrRICITY The electricity suppLy in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US style
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7middotEleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7-Eleven) EFTPOS facUities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash onLy

The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australian Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents ofbag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have

daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECTRICITY The electricity supply in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US sty Ie
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7 -Eleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7shyEleven) EFTPOS facilities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash only

FOI 1501415 26 Serial 1
with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australian Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party The principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism

Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents ofbag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have
FOl1501415 25 Serial 1
daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECTRICITY The electricity supply in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US sty Ie
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7 -Eleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7shyEleven) EFTPOS facilities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash only
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the $A The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10shy15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlucky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and non-official circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms
FOI 1501415 26 Serial 1
with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location

LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECrRICITY The electricity suppLy in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US style
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7middotEleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7-Eleven) EFTPOS facUities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash onLy

FOl1501415 Serial 9
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australian Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LOCAL INFORMATION
GEOGRAPHY AND POPULATION Japan is made up of four large islands (Hokkaido Honshu Shikoku and Kyushu) and about 6000 smaller ones including the Okinawa chain of islands Much of the population of about 1277 million is concentrated in the major cities of Tokyo Yokohama Osaka Nagoya Kobe and Kyoto Japan is the tenth most highly populated country in the world and also amongst the most densely populated at 338 people per square kilometre In Tokyo population density is around 6000 people per square kilometre
LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party The principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorism in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 implemented heightened security measures at key facilities including on public transport and at ports of entry
Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents ofbag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have
FOl1501415 25 Serial 1
daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECTRICITY The electricity supply in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US sty Ie
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7 -Eleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7shyEleven) EFTPOS facilities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash only
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the $A The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10shy15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlucky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and non-official circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms
FOI 1501415 26 Serial 1
with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LOCAL INFORMATION
GEOGRAPHY AND POPULATION Japan is made up of four large islands (Hokkaido Honshu Shikoku and Kyushu) and about 6000 smaller ones including the Okinawa chain of islands Much of the population of about 1277 million is concentrated in the major cities of Tokyo Yokohama Osaka Nagoya Kobe and Kyoto Japan is the tenth most highly populated country in the world and also amongst the most densely populated at 338 people per square kilometer In Tokyo population density is around 6000 peopLe per square kilometer
LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECrRICITY The electricity suppLy in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US style
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7middotEleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7-Eleven) EFTPOS facUities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash onLy

FOl1501415 Serial 9
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australian Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents ofbag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have

daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECTRICITY The electricity supply in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US sty Ie
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7 -Eleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7shyEleven) EFTPOS facilities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash only

GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlucky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and non-official circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms
FOI 1501415 26 Serial 1
with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australian Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

GEOGRAPHY AND POPULATION Japan is made up of four large islands (Hokkaido Honshu Shikoku and Kyushu) and about 6000 smaller ones including the Okinawa chain of islands Much of the population of about 1277 million is concentrated in the major cities of Tokyo Yokohama Osaka Nagoya Kobe and Kyoto Japan is the tenth most highly populated country in the world and also amongst the most densely populated at 338 people per square kilometre In Tokyo population density is around 6000 people per square kilometre
LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party The principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorism in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 implemented heightened security measures at key facilities including on public transport and at ports of entry
Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents ofbag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have
FOl1501415 25 Serial 1
daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECTRICITY The electricity supply in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US sty Ie
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7 -Eleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7shyEleven) EFTPOS facilities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash only
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the $A The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10shy15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlucky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and non-official circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms
FOI 1501415 26 Serial 1
with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australian Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents ofbag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have

daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECTRICITY The electricity supply in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US sty Ie
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7 -Eleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7shyEleven) EFTPOS facilities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash only
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the $A The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10shy15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlucky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and non-official circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms
FOI 1501415 26 Serial 1
with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australian Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LOCAL INFORMATION
GEOGRAPHY AND POPULATION Japan is made up of four large islands (Hokkaido Honshu Shikoku and Kyushu) and about 6000 smaller ones including the Okinawa chain of islands Much of the population of about 1277 million is concentrated in the major cities of Tokyo Yokohama Osaka Nagoya Kobe and Kyoto Japan is the tenth most highly populated country in the world and also amongst the most densely populated at 338 people per square kilometre In Tokyo population density is around 6000 people per square kilometre
LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party The principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorism in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 implemented heightened security measures at key facilities including on public transport and at ports of entry
Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents ofbag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have
FOl1501415 25 Serial 1
daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECTRICITY The electricity supply in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US sty Ie
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7 -Eleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7shyEleven) EFTPOS facilities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash only
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the $A The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10shy15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlucky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and non-official circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms
FOI 1501415 26 Serial 1
with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LOCAL INFORMATION
GEOGRAPHY AND POPULATION Japan is made up of four large islands (Hokkaido Honshu Shikoku and Kyushu) and about 6000 smaller ones including the Okinawa chain of islands Much of the population of about 1277 million is concentrated in the major cities of Tokyo Yokohama Osaka Nagoya Kobe and Kyoto Japan is the tenth most highly populated country in the world and also amongst the most densely populated at 338 people per square kilometer In Tokyo population density is around 6000 peopLe per square kilometer
LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECrRICITY The electricity suppLy in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US style
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7middotEleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7-Eleven) EFTPOS facUities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash onLy

FOl1501415 Serial 9
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1

with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australian Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents ofbag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have

FOI 1501415 26 Serial 1
with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following Rrovides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediately shelter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hold on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is undetway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks ofa tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely low
Immediately after the quake has su bsided you would be moved outside to an open area Exit would be by stair - lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles would move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staffwould move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event ofan injury - you would immediately be transferred to a nearby medical centre
FO15014115 23 Serial 1
Open areas for evacuation according to location at time of incident
Prince Park Tower - move to Shiba Park (Shiba-koen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to Imperial Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australian Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LOCAL INFORMATION
GEOGRAPHY AND POPULATION Japan is made up of four large islands (Hokkaido Honshu Shikoku and Kyushu) and about 6000 smaller ones including the Okinawa chain of islands Much of the population of about 1277 million is concentrated in the major cities of Tokyo Yokohama Osaka Nagoya Kobe and Kyoto Japan is the tenth most highly populated country in the world and also amongst the most densely populated at 338 people per square kilometre In Tokyo population density is around 6000 people per square kilometre
LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party The principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorism in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 implemented heightened security measures at key facilities including on public transport and at ports of entry
Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents ofbag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have
FOl1501415 25 Serial 1
daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECTRICITY The electricity supply in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US sty Ie
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7 -Eleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7shyEleven) EFTPOS facilities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash only
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the $A The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10shy15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlucky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and non-official circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms
FOI 1501415 26 Serial 1
with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730

The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECrRICITY The electricity suppLy in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US style
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7middotEleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7-Eleven) EFTPOS facUities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash onLy

FOl1501415 Serial 9
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is considered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and anns at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sipped directly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is considered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park

GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden

GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden

ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECrRICITY The electricity suppLy in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US style

The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LOCAL INFORMATION
GEOGRAPHY AND POPULATION Japan is made up of four large islands (Hokkaido Honshu Shikoku and Kyushu) and about 6000 smaller ones including the Okinawa chain of islands Much of the population of about 1277 million is concentrated in the major cities of Tokyo Yokohama Osaka Nagoya Kobe and Kyoto Japan is the tenth most highly populated country in the world and also amongst the most densely populated at 338 people per square kilometer In Tokyo population density is around 6000 peopLe per square kilometer
LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECrRICITY The electricity suppLy in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US style
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7middotEleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7-Eleven) EFTPOS facUities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash onLy

FOl1501415 Serial 9
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECrRICITY The electricity suppLy in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US style

FOl1501415 Serial 9
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECrRICITY The electricity suppLy in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US style
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7middotEleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7-Eleven) EFTPOS facUities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash onLy

FOl1501415 Serial 9
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink

Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

GEOGRAPHY AND POPULATION Japan is made up of four large islands (Hokkaido Honshu Shikoku and Kyushu) and about 6000 smaller ones including the Okinawa chain of islands Much of the population of about 1277 million is concentrated in the major cities of Tokyo Yokohama Osaka Nagoya Kobe and Kyoto Japan is the tenth most highly populated country in the world and also amongst the most densely populated at 338 people per square kilometer In Tokyo population density is around 6000 peopLe per square kilometer
LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECrRICITY The electricity suppLy in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US style
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7middotEleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7-Eleven) EFTPOS facUities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash onLy

FOl1501415 Serial 9
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

EARTHQUAKE ADVICE
The following provides a general guide to procedures to be followed in the event that a major earthquake - possibly followed by a tsunami - affects the Minister and party
IN TOKYO At the onset of a major earthquake you should immediateLy sheLter (under a table or desk or stand within a solid door-frame) hoLd on and stay there for the duration of the quake Do not attempt to move around or leave a building while a major quake is underway unless directed to do so Even a major earthquake is unlikely to Last more than five minutes It will be fairly clear whether an earthquake is serious enough to require sheltering Due to the geography of Tokyo Bay the risks of a tsunami threatening the Minister andor party in Tokyo are extremely Low
Immediately after the quake has subsided you wouLd be moved outside to an open area Exit wouLd be by stair lifts are designed to stop in a major earthquake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff wouLd escort you to a secure location
If travelling by road the vehicles wouLd move to an open area if possible and then stop for the duration of the quake After this depending on the specifics of the situation Japanese authorities andor Embassy staff would move the Minister and party to a secure location
In the event of an injury - you would immediateLy be transferred to a nearby medicaL centre
Open areas for evacuation accordins to location at time of inddent
Prince Park Tower - move to Shfba Park (Shibakoen)
Ministry Buildings in Kasumigaseki - move to ImperiaL Palace outer gardens or Hibiya Park
Australjan Embassy - move to the rear garden
Movement to secure location - if considered safe you would be moved to the Australian Embassy until the situation could be assessed further

LANGUAGE AND CULTURE The national language is Japanese English is not widely spoken Interpreters and Japanese speaking Embassy staff will be available to assist the Ministers party rhe principal religions are Shinto and Buddhism
SECURITY Japanese government authorities cannot rule out the threat of terrorim in Japan As a counter-terrorism precaution the Japanese government has since July 2005 impLemented heightened security measures at key facilities incLuding on public transport and at ports of entry Japan generally has a low rate of crime although there are sporadic incidents of bag snatching and pick-pocketing in crowded shopping areas on trains and at airports Credit card and ATM fraud can occur in Japan
TIME The whole of Japan is on the same time which is GMT +9 hours This means Japan is one hour behind Canberra Japan does not have daylight-saving time Since Tokyo is located in one of the most eastern points of Japan daylight begins soon after 530 am in early October and nightfall is around 1730
ELECrRICITY The electricity suppLy in Tokyo is 100-110 volts 50Hz Plugs have two flat pins - US style
MONEY AND BANKING Foreign debit cards with Maestro and Cirrus functions are accepted at ATMs in 7middotEleven convenience stores Japan Post bank Shinsei bank and Citibank ATMs are available in Tokyo 24 hours a day but only at some bank branches and some convenience stores (such as 7-Eleven) EFTPOS facUities as you know them in Australia are very limited Credit cards are accepted at major shops restaurants and hotels but many smaller businesses still accept cash onLy

FOl1501415 Serial 9
The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion

ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink

The national currency is the Yen with approximately 80 yen to the SA The value is clearly indicated on all notes and coins Japan has a 5 consumption tax You may encounter a service charge of 10-15 in top-end hotels or restaurants
GIFTS Knives combs gifts in sets of four or nine (unlLCky numbers) and gifts with an image of lilies camellias or lotus flowers (associated with funerals) are not considered appropriate in Japanese culture
ETIQUETTE The Japanese are conscious of protocol and seniority in both official and nonshyofficial circles Informality does not come easily It is not possible or even regarded as appropriate to get on first name terms with many Japanese but this does not necessarily mean that a good or even close relationship has not been established In Japanese society punctuality is conSidered essential The Japanese are almost always early for appointments and functions On meeting it is polite to bow from the waist with eyes down and arms at your side Shaking hands is also common Bowing is not expected of foreigners
Chopsticks are the most common eating utensils although some dishes may be served with a knife and fork or spoon Chopsticks should never be left standing upright in the bowl as this is a funeral custom Japanese-style soup can be sippeddirectly from the bowl and slurping is common as it is consiiered an indicator of ones enjoyment of the meal
Drinking etiquette involves waiting for an official toast before drinking and pouring drinks for others before they have finished their glass Pouring drinks is considered a mark of respect If someone indicates they wish to pour a drink for you it is not necessary to finish your drink It is more polite to leave a full glass on the table than to refuse a drink
Tipping in Japan is not necessary and can lead to confusion
