With 575 days until the 2020 Olympics and Paralympics, and a law passed earlier this month that opens the door for 340,000 foreign workers to enter the country over the next five years, Tokyo is about to see a lot of new faces.

Tokyo Gov. Yuriko Koike hopes that the new legislation will benefit incoming foreign nationals, she said in an interview with The Japan Times on Wednesday.

The governor said more than 540,000 foreigners live in Tokyo at the moment, and that about 30,000 more move into the city every year.
