“In the resort industry, demand for both domestic and overseas travel dropped, which resulted in drastically reduced numbers of tourists due to the impact of coronavirus and the travel restrictions imposed by each country. The business plan for the fiscal year ending on March 31, 2022, is based on the assumption that demand will gradually recover throughout the fiscal year despite the impacts of coronavirus.”Venir de Tragamonedas Gratis Online
