As the spread of the new coronavirus has made it an issue to correct the overconcentration in the Tokyo area, the Minister for Economic Revitalization Nishimura visited Bungotakada City, Oita Prefecture, which is working to promote migration, and improved the local environment. In order to do so, he expressed his intention to proceed with discussions such as digitization.
On the 19th, the Minister for Economic Revitalization Nishimura visited Bungotakada City, Oita Prefecture, which is actively working to promote migration from urban areas by enhancing child-rearing support measures.
Then, in order to secure the same learning opportunities as in urban areas, we observed cram school teachers and city officials giving lectures to students at junior high schools on weekends.
After this, Minister Nishimura told reporters, "I was impressed by the various efforts of the city and residents. The government has also set up support measures for migration, but there are some aspects that are not being used so much, so I verified it. However, I would like to think about how to support it. "
On top of that, he said, "If the environment is set up, it will greatly lead to migration to rural areas and regional revitalization. I would like to proceed with discussions at the government's future investment conference for new daily life," he said, and there is no difference with urban areas. He expressed his intention to promote discussions such as promotion of digitalization in order to improve the local environment.
