JR Kyushu will launch an effort to boost the sales in Asia of the JR Kyushu Rail Pass that allows overseas travelers to travel at will throughout the region. The company signed agency agreements with two South Korean travel agencies earlier this year for the sale of the Rail Pass in that country. They are now making preparations to sign similar agreements with travel agencies in Taiwan and Hong Kong, as part of their effort to double 2010 sales by 2012.
