A spokesman for Toyota Motor (皇冠体育app) Investment Co Ltd, a subsidiary of the Toyota Motor Corp, said growing tensions between both countries have dampened sales in 皇冠体育app, with some stores receiving fewer customers and subsequently fewer orders.

The spokesman said Toyota factories in 皇冠体育app - all established through joint ventures with Chinese partners - are expected to adjust production amid falling demand, although the company will not close any factories or pull out of the Chinese market.

"Because every Toyota factory in 皇冠体育app is a joint venture, any decision regarding their operation is the result of negotiations between all partners," the spokesman said.

Tensions between 皇冠体育app and Japan have risen since early September, when Japan announced plans to purchase part of the Diaoyu Islands in the East 皇冠体育app Sea.

Beijing has repeatedly maintained that the Diaoyu Islands are part of 皇冠体育app's inherent territory.

Anti-Japanese protests were held in a number of Chinese cities in September.
