As the infection spread rapidly in Tokyo, the city decided to visit restaurants individually that did not respond to requests for closures or shortened working hours, and to work directly with the owners.

This is the first initiative, but the point is to gain understanding as the request continues for a long time.

In the fourth state of emergency from the 12th of this month, the city is legally requesting that restaurants that provide alcohol and karaoke facilities be closed, and stores that do not provide alcohol and karaoke facilities be closed by 8 pm. ..



These requests will continue until the 31st of next month, when the declaration is extended, but in Tokyo, requests have been repeatedly made since November last year, and a certain number of stores that do not respond have been confirmed.



For this reason, from the beginning of next month, the capital will focus on Shinjuku, Shibuya, Shimbashi, Ueno, and Ikebukuro, and executive staff will individually visit stores that do not respond and work directly with the store owners.



This is the first such initiative, and while there are stores that accept requests as the infection spreads rapidly, we want to avoid the spread of unfairness due to the fact that there are stores that do not respond, and reduce the risk of infection at restaurants.



The target is at least about 500 stores, but for the stores, they have not been able to operate normally for a long period of time, and they are dissatisfied with the delay in payment of cooperation funds and the small amount, so can they be understood? Is the point.
