Ken Hasebe, the mayor of Shibuya Ward, Tokyo, held a press conference before Halloween next weekend, and every year during Halloween, the area around Shibuya Station is packed with a large number of young people, for so the spread of the new corona virus is spreading. To avoid this, we made an unusual “please refrain from coming to Shibuya” call.
In this, Mayor Hasebe said: “This time, the corona virus has spread and we must avoid the density. While the event also abstained, I want you to refrain from coming to Shibuya to ensure safety.” I made an unusual call.
Mayor Hasebe said, “Regardless of whether you dress up or not, please refrain from making noise or drinking in the street all night. I devised a way to feel Shibuya even if you don’t come. I want you to enjoy it at home.”
This will change like this
In Shibuya Ward, in order to clarify the position of calling to refrain from visiting for the purpose of Halloween, we will take different measures from last year.
Specifically, we will not install a temporary bathroom or changing room that was installed until last year.
On the other hand, to prepare for people who visit Shibuya for Halloween, even if such a call is made, we will spend around 100 million yen to strengthen the security system and in 42 liquor stores in the neighborhood on the afternoon of the 31st. We ask that you refrain from selling liquor from 6 am to 5 am on November 1st.
The trash bag is transparent “pumpkin”.
Every year during Halloween, the executive committee that creates Shibuya Ward and local shopping streets envisions decorations made by hollowing out pumpkins for volunteers who collect garbage and people who visited Shibuya. He was handing out an orange garbage bag.
However, this year we stopped distributing this garbage bag and decided to prepare about 10,000 transparent and colorless garbage bags.
Kazuo Morita, manager of the Shibuya District Environmental Improvement Division, said: “Until last year, we prepared a pumpkin garbage bag to summon a modest Halloween. However, since we asked for self-control, we decided to use a bag of transparent trash. I don’t feel like a festival anymore. “
A series of problems such as garbage and drinking in the street.
Tens of thousands of people are said to gather in Shibuya Ward every year, and not only on Halloween day on October 31, but also on the most recent weekend, a large number of people gather, and the area around the jumbled intersection in front of Shibuya station is so still. It will be crowded.
Due to a number of issues such as noise, a large amount of garbage and drinking on the street, the district budgeted around 90 million yen for the first time last year as expenses for security and other Halloween-related measures.
Shibuya District began taking action in 2015.
It was triggered by complaints such as the avalanche of people disguised as toilets in stations and commercial buildings, mainly among young people, and the surrounding walls and floors that were soiled with blood.
We’ve taken steps like setting up a tent to change clothes and put on makeup in a nearby park, but two years ago, on the weekend just before Halloween, a truck flipped over and I was drunk. Last year, the district enacted an ordinance prohibiting drinking on the streets and in parks, such as on Halloween, and has strengthened its countermeasures so that related problems do not go away.
