Koike Akira · Communist Party Secretary General (remark)

(Regarding the measures against the heat of the Tokyo Olympic Games and former Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori 's proposal to introduce daylight saving time) Because the Olympic Games do not do it only in the morning, what will be solved by introducing daylight saving time? I think that it is a story. Since there is competition in the daytime, if you worry about countermeasures against heat, you should change the timing of the Olympics to September or October. Because it will be in time. That's a measure of the heat.

If you introduce daylight saving time only during the Olympic period, it will be a mess in the middle China. It's not just a little fitting the alarm clock. From the computer to what, the whole system, you have to change the time.

Generally, the day of physical education is October 10 (at the time of enactment). Because the opening ceremony on October 10 is the Olympic Games in 1964. I wish I could do that. That's the way of athlete first. (At a press conference within the National Assembly)
