On the 27th, the Minister in charge of the Expo Inoue will visit Osaka for the first time since taking office and will visit the planned site of the Expo.
The Minister in charge of the Inoue Expo was scheduled to visit Osaka for the first time after taking office on the 19th of this month for the 2025 Osaka / Kansai Expo, but a member sitting next to him at the plenary session of the House of Representatives was infected with the new coronavirus. Therefore, the visit was postponed.
At a press conference after the Cabinet meeting, Minister Inoue visited Osaka on the 27th to inspect the planned site of the Expo, as well as Governor Yoshimura of Osaka Prefecture and Osaka City. It has been revealed that it will meet with Mayor Matsui and others.
Minister Inoue said, "I would like to see with my own eyes the planned venue and the progress of preparations, and listen to ideas and worries at the site. The society will change under the influence of the new coronavirus. I would like to think about a new type of Expo with an eye on it. "
