Hello,
This is Hirokane at Local Travel Partners.
Today, I would like to share you about the situation of covid-19 in Japan.
The situation is getting worse than before.
Many Japanese now believe that postponing the Tokyo Olympics was the right decision.
The Japanese government is asking us not to go out as possible as we can.
Many restaurants, travel agencies (like us), bus companies, taxi companies, hotels are in the very serious situation.
At this moment, no one knows when this situation will be converged.
The Tokyo governor asked people to stay away from bars, karaoke, to slow coronavirus spread.
