Ken Hasuda, director of Jikei Hospital, said, "We accept that 80% of the cases of confidential births in Japan, which are not legal, have been completed. After the second case, we decided to treat them more promptly. I want it. "
In addition, Kumamoto City states, "We will respond carefully and politely in order to achieve the best interests of our children."
