>Labour shortage was particularly serious in the hospitality industry, as labour shortage of full-time employees was seen in 65.4% of hotels and ryokans (51.1% on average), and labour shortage of part-time employees in 75% of hotels and ryokans (31% on average)
Would there be labor shortages if they began to charge tourists more money and raise the normal wage of all staff?
