๐ Japan's Foreign Student Enrollment in Higher Ed Up 30%
Japan's international student enrollments at higher education institutions increased by over 30% between 2014 and 2019, driven by government initiatives and the growing appeal of Japanese universities. This consistent rise reflected Japan's push to attract global talent. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, enrollments dropped by 7% from 2019 to 2021, as travel restrictions and health concerns impacted student mobility.

In 2022, Brazil led electric vehicle (EV) sales in Latin America, with over 40,000 of its EVs being hybrids. The majority of EVs in Latin American countries are hybrids, largely due to the region's limited charging infrastructure and longer distances between cities. Brazilโs leadership in EV sales is driven by its large market and supportive policies, with hybrids being the most popular option for many consumers in the country.

Even as the population remained stable, the doctor-to-population ratio continued to improve, ensuring better access to medical care across the country.
