Governor Yuriko Koike of Tokyo
Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike announced on the 18th that she will provide cooperation money to restaurants, etc., requesting to shorten business hours as a countermeasure against the new corona virus, to major companies that are not covered. .. Until now, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government has requested shorter hours regardless of the size of the commercial operator, but the 60,000 yen per day payment is limited to small and medium-sized commercial operators, and major companies have complained.
Governor Koike noted that he said: “We have received cooperation from 80 to 90% of stores” regarding the request for time savings until 8:00 pm, but “has not yet connected to safely suppress the flow of people”. “We have instructed large companies to consider providing payments for further cooperation,” he said. The start time was “asap”.
So far, the capital has limited the payment of cooperation funds to small and medium-sized enterprises with “capital of 50 million yen or less or 50 employees or less”, assuming that large companies have management strength. Given the impact on the city’s finances, he was cautious about expanding into major companies.
However, the three prefectures of Saitama, Kanagawa and Chiba, where emergency declarations have been issued, also provide cooperation funds to major companies. Only the capital remained, and the large companies developing restaurants demanded that the payment be made.
