The other day, we discussed political news in Japan. The follows are its summary and my opinion.
There will be Olympic Games at Tokyo in 2020 and some big troubles have happened. One of such troubles is Tokyo’s National Stadium. What is problem is an original constructional plan, made by Zaha Hadid, is too cost to construct. In fact, it costs more than two hundred and fifty billion yen, so many people opposed this plan. In addition, because of its massive size and ultra-modern shape, there is nothing for it but to return to the blank. Therefore, the construction may not be ready by 2020, and then, Hakubun Shimomura took responsibility and resigned his post.
In my opinion, construction of Tokyo’s National Stadium is a complex problem. At first, where the responsibility lies is unknown. Yoshiro Mori, who is present of Tokyo’s organizing committee, and who prevent Shimomura’s resignation, said that we are not related with the problem and also said that two hundred and fifty-two billion yen is relatively cheap. I think he didn’t fulfill a responsibility of explanation. He must be front line of the trouble. And Shimomura should have not escape. Second, it’s unclear who to take charge of the cost. Ultimately, the citizen will do, but now Tokyo Metropolis don’t agree with the Nation, Tokyo’s organizing committee. There are a lot of cost’s problems such as support of the earthquake and pension benefit, hence, it is necessary to cooperate together for solution.
