Saburō Kawabuchi, 84, former president of the Japan Football Association, may take over as the chairman of the Tokyo Olympic Organizing Committee.

On the 3rd of this month, Yoshiro Mori said at the Provisional MPs of the Japan Olympic Committee: “It takes time to have a large number of women to join the council.” This discrimination against women has aroused a large number of opposition in Japan and abroad.
