Over 80,000 apply to be volunteers at Tokyo 2020 Games

44 percent are non-Japanese citizens

44%????? Wow, probably not Japantoday readers.

You have to work 8 hours a day for at least 10 days and receive NO MONEY, except 1,000 yen train ticket voucher per day.

You cannot watch the games while you are working. It is just amazing.

I am planning to be outside Japan exactly during the Tokyo Olympics. Not interested at all.

You cannot watch the games while you are working.

For some, that's a plus.

Because they are old and have nothing to do.
