Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): philgoddard, Yvonne Gallagher

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

foray

While the economic opportunities in Japan may still be robust enough to draw companies there, any foray by a foreign corporation into the country must take into account the regulatory environment and compliance risks of doing business there

Incursion

I see no reason not to go with 'incursion' itself, though context is key.
Both words mean a sudden raid, but 'foray' stresses obtaining something; to my way of thinking, it involves grabbing and running.
Incursion has a slightly less hasty sense to it in terms of its duration.
So...context.

agree neilmac : I think this (and "intrusion") are closer to the intended meaning, and both work better in the list format of the query IMHO.
