According to various Japanese media reports on October 14, a recent report from the International Monetary Fund predicts that Japan's gross domestic product will be surpassed by India and the United Kingdom in 2027, and the global ranking will drop from the current fourth to sixth place. According to Japanese media analysis, the decline in Japan's ranking is mainly affected by two factors. On the one hand, Japan's economy is sluggish, and its growth rate is lower than that of India and the United Kingdom; on the other hand, the yen continues to depreciate and is “compressed” when converted to US dollars in terms of GDP. Another Japanese netizen criticized, “The reason for this situation is that Japanese politicians only pursue self-interest and have never thought about the future of the country.”
