Citizen Tamaki “The government has no sense of crisis or speed”

National Democratic Party representative Tamaki told reporters, `` I asked the Budget Committee about rent support, but I found that the government was not in a sense of crisis and speed. We want the parties to quickly compile a new emergency economic measure that includes the issuance of “bonds” and raising 100 trillion yen in financial resources. One of the options is to set it to 0% with a time limit. "
