DIE Olympic Games It did not happen in Tokyo in 1940. After the attack on China, Japan no longer seems to accept reception abroad. Tokyo was cancelled in 1938 out of self-interest. The missing games, as they say, are reminiscent of a disgraceful past and are often covered up in Japan.

The 1964 Tokyo Olympics was the first Olympic Games in Asia, bringing democratized Japan back to the list of countries respected internationally. From the timing of the stadium to the high-speed Shinkansen trains, Japan has demonstrated the most advanced technology and has made huge and expensive efforts to transform the capital into a modern metropolis. Tokyo in 1964 allowed the world to foresee what was later frightening under the slogan of “Japan AG”, and is now negotiating under the slogan of “Asian Century”.
What is the significance of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics in Friday’s competition? Coronavirus pandemic Open one year late? The Olympic Games were designed to serve as a symbol and impetus for the second time in 1964. The government hopes to show the world that Japan has overcome decades of deflation and reconstruction of the Tohoku after the devastating earthquake and flood in 2011, despite the nuclear Fukushima site.
Strange recording
There is very little left of these plans, both financially and humanly. There are not hundreds of thousands of tourists and tourists who have the purchasing power and confidence to flock to the streets of the capital.However, in Tokyo, people are afraid to travel Pandemic And anger towards the government. In the absence of spectators, and under strict anti-coronavirus rules, the paint of the game has peeled off before the first batch of athletes compete for medals.
Japanese politicians can use the most advanced words to warm their hearts. President of the International Olympic Committee, Thomas Bach, Praising the most prepared game ever. Tokyo became the first Asian city to host the Olympic Games twice, winning the title a few months earlier than rival Beijing. In terms of the number of male and female athletes, the 2020 Tokyo Olympics is by far the most gender-fair Olympic sports festival. This is the first Olympic Games to be postponed. This is the first Olympic Games held during the pandemic.
These records sound strange. They did not hide the fact that Japan and the organizers are taking certain risks for the game. The mass control, testing and vaccination of most Olympic participants should ultimately prevent international sporting events from becoming a corona collapse. But the risks and fears among the people still exist.
Many Japanese ask what is the meaning of the game and why. For athletes, the standard answer is. When the Delta variant is rampant and Japan has not made rapid enough progress in vaccination, there are many problems.For finances International Olympic Committee And the advertising revenue of American TV stations? As we all know, Mrs. Watanabe, who takes care of family finances in Japan, doesn’t care.
For the domestic economy? The demolition and new construction of hotels and stadiums have ended. Without spectators and tourists, there will be no gain. For the country, former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe whispered in a political context, he brought the game to Japan, wearing a Super Mario costume. But his intervention hardly attracted people’s attention. For spectators who are not allowed to enter the stadium? As a symbol of human unity against the virus? Asking a question implies a negative answer.
The Japanese government and the International Olympic Committee forcibly promoted the Tokyo Olympics without really listening to the people’s concerns. The damage to the reputation of the Japanese Olympic movement is more serious than the cancellation of the game under the sign of Corona. However, residents of future candidate cities will also pay close attention to events around Tokyo 2020. Japan will hold general elections in the fall.
12.30 noon every day
The government will be dissatisfied with these games, whether or not they mutate into corona slings. But the opposition is weak, and Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga’s party rivals are taking cover. Suga’s position does not seem to be in danger yet.
A successful Olympics requires people to walk with them and let themselves be inspired by the spectacle. Despite the corona, the 2020 Tokyo Olympics ignored this in the willingness to save the game unconditionally. Japanese athletes need to achieve many amazing successes to make up for this failure.
