Tokyo Metropolitan government to promote trips to Fukushima
June 1, 2019
Tokyo--The Tokyo metropolitan government will launch a campaign to promote trips to Fukushima Prefecture for people who participate in international conferences and other events in the Japanese capital, Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike said Friday.
Koike is set to conclude an agreement on the campaign with Masao Uchibori, governor of the northeastern prefecture, on Thursday.
The campaign, intended to support reconstruction in Fukushima following the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami, will include providing information on tourist spots and suggesting routes for sightseeing.
"Enjoying sightseeing before and after business trips is receiving some attention. I want to meet this demand," Koike said at a press conference.Jiji Press
