JAPAN SELECT® is an English-Japanese app for Japan’s foreign residents, foreign visitors and internationally minded Japanese. The first edition of the monthly magazine “J SELECT” (Japan Select) was published in 1974 by Business World Corporation; the leader in English-language publications in Japan since 1971. BWC publications have been adopted as the official English-language medium during visits to Japan by world leaders such as HM Queen Elizabeth II and HRH Prince Charles of England, U.S. presidents Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan, and the heads of government of the G7 and G8 member nations. JAPAN SELECT features articles on dining, culture, travel, business, society, beauty and fashion, and events, as well as interviews and more. Each point of our J Select star logo corresponds to the five major continents of the world. Our purpose in publishing this magazine is to showcase the best information from Japan to the world.
