According to the Henley Passport Index, compiled by global citizenship and residence advisory firm Henley & Partners, Japan now has the most powerful passport on the planet.
根据由全球公民和居住咨询公司亨氏顾问发布的《亨利护照指数》,日本护照是目前全球效力最强的护照。Having gained visa-free access to Myanmar earlier this month, Japanese citizens can now enjoy visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to a whopping 190 destinations around the world -- knocking Singapore, with 189 destinations, into second place.

中国目前排名第71位,较2017年初上升了14位。Christian H. Kalin, Group Chairman of Henley & Partners, commented in a statement on "the extraordinary results that states can achieve when they work hand in hand with their global peers to build a more interconnected and collaborative world."
亨氏顾问集团董事长克里斯蒂安·H·卡林在一份声明中评论道:“当各国与全球其他国家携手合作,共同建设一个更加相互关联和协作的世界时,它们就能取得非凡的成果。”"China and the UAE exemplify this kind of progress, with both states among the highest overall climbers compared to 2017, purely as a result of the strong relationships they have built with partner countries around the world."
“中国和阿联酋就是这种进步的例证。相比2017年,阿联酋和中国都是整体攀升率最高的国家,这是因为两国与世界各地的伙伴国家建立了牢固的关系。”
