IAG AUG 2019年8月 亞博匯 42 By Tomo Yamamoto GATEWAY TO JAPAN Nagasaki has been a gateway to Japan since antiquity and now it is trying tomake a space for itself on the central stage once more. Japan’s first IR will open somewhere between 2024 and 2025. Sasebo City’s Dutch inspired theme park Huis Ten Bosch meets the criteria and is considered a key candidate site for one of the three IRs that will be built across the country. But will Nagasaki clear the final hurdle? 通瀛崎門 長崎自從古時就已經是日本的一道門戶，而當地現在就嘗試讓鎂光燈 再次聚焦在自己身上。日本的第一間綜合度假村(IR)大概將會在2024 至2025年之間開幕。佐世保市內那個從荷蘭取得靈感的主題公園豪 斯登堡就符合了多項準則，並被認定可以成為日本全國未來三間IR其 中一間的落腳地。可是，長崎真的能夠突破最後的關卡脫穎而出嗎？ 文 山本智行 JAPAN
