PR spokesperson Shusaku Kannan said, "The decrease can be attributed to the fact that there were no events in December last year on the scale of the Tokyo Motor Show held in 2011. The negative trend which began in September has subsequently steadily improved. Adspend was up in 9 categories and down in
11. The industry sectors that showed increases included Information/Communications, Government/Organizations and Distribution/Retailing, but Home Electric Appliances/AV Equipment, Automobiles/Related Products and Beverages/Cigarettes were among those that registered declines."
