Economists skeptical Japan can grow its way out of debt: Nikkei survey

A survey conducted by Nikkei indicates that economists are doubtful about Japan's ability to reduce its debt-to-GDP ratio through its current fiscal strategy, which depends on achieving high economic growth. The Japanese government has been promoting public-private investments as part of its efforts to stimulate growth and lower the national debt burden. However, experts remain skeptical about whether these measures will be sufficient to meet the stated objective. This uncertainty highlights concerns over the effectiveness of Japan's economic policies in addressing its significant public debt.
