John Coates to get $475k from AOC despite 20 per cent pay cut

Such a nice man! He is so nice to accept a paycut! Not! This guy is TRASH!

Coates revealed a Tunisian official at a recent rowing event in Tokyo tested positive for coronavirus, but said that only proved the tough measures were working."

He tested okay before he left Tunisia, tested okay on arrival then three days later tested positive," 

Someone from a foreign country bringing the Virus into Japan IS NOT measures working. This is just one person! Imagine how many will test positive and bring different COVID mutations when THOUSANDS of people arrive..The Gov't is out of touch with reality.

Can someone break down a Japanese wage for me, and how you are paid..bonuses, etc.

Stop trolling. The mods have already deleted your fake news once. Next will be a timeout.lol

@Tom

In America you can walk into a pharmacy and get a shot. Just wait 15 minutes after and go home! There was even vaccineation stations in a grocery store!

Have no fear Pappa Suga has a plan Japan!

@Tora

I have a multimillion pension from the US...This is not even my own investment. It can also be called "compensation", if you will. And it's alot of compensation. I do live in Japan. However Japan's pension system is a complete joke. I don't want anything from the joke of a system and will never apply, even though I can.

Some scientists have suggested otherwise, and an editorial last month in the British Medical Journal said the Olympics should be "reconsidered."

Don't listen to the experts! Listen to those that profit from the Olympics so they can fund their expensive steak dinners, and their buy me drinks outings!

The average worker gets 365,804 yen?

This is laughable! My monthly retirement check I get every month until I die, then it goes to my wife is more than that! And I retired after only 14 years of work!

@chico3,

It is not even posibble to deliver that number of shots an hour..This has clearly been shown with 1% of the population gettting the vaccine. Not only can they not deliver, but they also can not convince people that the vaccine is safe...including me. Count me out! You can have quadruple!

Do these people not get embarassed when they don't meet their goal? Or even 10% of the goal? I have lived here a long time, and have seen almost any goal that was set, NEVER met.

Wait! I was told Japanese are VERY patient! This article proves that they are humans as well. Time to make some changes to society!

Aiming for 1 Million shots a day

Reality: 1,500 shots a day

Trump was the one to call COVID "the China virus". His followers are the ones doing this. Looks like taking my wife and kids to the US won't be safe after COVID. I guess we will have to go to singapore instead! It is more beautiful there, and peaceful anyway! The US can keep their virus!

Imagine that! Running LESS trains, with the same amount of people traveling would cause an increase in each trains capacity! Whoever made this decision is a clown.

That is an insane amount of money is you have more than one child. A loan? Sure! Great idea! Let's loan money to the people who already can't afford it! There should be some type of assistance for low income families.

You know the ol saying, "whatever goes up, must come down" ? Well it seems whatever goes down, must come up!

We don't need a SOE in Tokyo! All they need to do is run less trains, pack them to 280% (previously they were 180%), and the problem will be solved Japanese Gov't thinking!

What should happen is they need to run MORE trains, so the trains are not as packed. I know I sound crazy, but I am just a rocket scientist!
