Japan passed a law to finance the reorganization of American forces in the country and help move thousands of marines from Okinawa to the United States territory of Guam. Japan is to pay $6 billion for the transfer of troops, while Washington is to contribute $4 billion. Under the legislation, local governments will receive financial rewards if they are willing to be hosts for United States troops.
