Tokyo Olympics Organizing Committee's Selection of Show Director Reveals Lack of Governance

(This article is a reprint of a Facebook post published on the 22nd at 11:03 a.m.)
The Simon Wiesenthal Center has taken action regarding Olympic show director Kobayashi Kentaro's Holocaust joke.

Saori Imai of Yahoo! News记事So, "Urgent petition: Prime Minister Suga, take disciplinary action against Olympic show director Kobayashi by today. Before the Tokyo Olympics are forever tainted."¹If the show produced by that person is held at the Olympics and Paralympics, he may be stabbed later, so the show will be canceled and replaced with a moment of silence.²I think it's something like that. Victims of the coronavirus, victims of the earthquake, the Holocaust of the past and the present³directed at the victims.

And then there's "disposal."I've said this before.This series of events clearly shows that the Olympic Organizing Committee has a governance problem.⁴So I think that those who supported the current governance system need to be changed completely, including the top management.
