LDP Governor Election 3 Continue activities to expand support for candidates 11:46 on September 10
Former Secretary-General Ishiba, Chief Cabinet Secretary Suga and Chairman of Kishida's political affairs who are running for the LDP presidential election electing to replace Prime Minister Abe will continue to support them by going to the provinces and calling on councilors to cooperate on the 10th. We are developing activities for expansion.
Mr. Ishiba
Former Secretary-General Ishiba will visit Miyagi Prefecture and Fukushima Prefecture, which are areas affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake, on the afternoon of the 10th, and exchange opinions with the affected people and local chiefs.
Prior to this, Mr. Ishiba told reporters in Tokyo that it will be 10 years from the occurrence of the Great East Japan Earthquake next year. "At that time, the LDP was an opposition party and I was the chairman of the government affairs investigation. The fact that I went to the disaster area and stayed overnight was the starting point that led to the proposal for the establishment of the Reconstruction Agency. I am appealing for the establishment of the Ministry of Disaster Prevention, but I would like to return to the origin again." ..
In addition, Mr. Ishiba commented on the method of disposing of water containing radioactive substances such as tritium, which is increasing at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, "If released into the sea or the atmosphere, it must be understood by the international community. First of all, I would like to share with you today what the government should do to inform the public and the world that it is safe."
Mr. Kan
Chief Cabinet Secretary Kan visited the offices of the members of the party individually and called for their support in the morning of the 10th and on the 9th.
Of these, at the office of the Aso-based office of the House of Representatives and the House of Representatives, Mr. Mudai encouraged, "Please do your best. All my local Liberal Democratic Party branch offices will do their best with Mr. Kan."
In response to this, Mr. Suga answered, "Thank you. I will do my best, so please give me a little more."
Mr. Suga, while acting as the Chief Cabinet Secretary, will meet online with local councilors on the afternoon of 10th and call for their support.
Mr. Kishida
Chairman Kishida, visited Kurihara City, Miyagi Prefecture, and exchanged opinions with local farmers.
Among them, a rice farmer's man requested, "It is said that we will soon be reaping the harvest, but the price will drop due to the surplus of commercial rice due to the new corona. We want the price to stabilize."
In response to this, Mr. Kishida responded, "I understand that there is a big impact. If price adjustment is difficult, we need to take further political measures. I want to fulfill my political responsibility."
After that, we talked while eating rice balls using local rice by the side of the rice field, and Mr. Kishida said, "Not only does agriculture make money, but it also has a role to support the region in terms of disaster prevention functions and cultural aspects of accumulating water in paddy fields. I would like to create an environment in which young people can participate."
Mr. Kishida will visit Fukushima Prefecture later to exchange opinions with those involved in the tourism industry.
