Mori to women: “You take a lot of time”.

Yoshiro Mori, 86, a former Prime Minister of Japan and currently Head of the Olympic Paralympic organizing committee said in the interview that women are “taking a lot of time” during the committee meeting. 


During the committee meeting, there were 24 members and among them, 5 women were present. This “inappropriate” remarks of Mori triggers opposition leaders and government officials. 


Kazuo Shii, leader of Japanese Communist Party, tweeted that the statement of Mori is “Stupidly Shameful”.



Fukuyama of The constitutional democratic party also expressed this disappointment to Mr.Mori. He said that he wont ignore this social issue of Japan and this is a reason why gender equality has no development at all.




Tokyo Governor said that it is really up to the person. Ikegawa Yuuichi, a Tokyo councilor tweeted


When asked by journalist the reason why he said those remarks, he said and quote “I DON'T TALK TO WOMEN THAT MUCH LATELY SO I DON'T KNOW", WHEN ASKED WHETHER HE THINKS WOMEN TALK LONG”.


How world reacted on this?

  JAPAN PINAGBABAWAL ANG “DUAL CITIZENSHIP” | Social  January 21, 2021 Nagdesisyon ang korte ng Japan kanina umaga(January 21) na ipagbabawal ang pagkakaruon ng dual citizenship sa bansa. Base sa kasulukuyang panuntunan ng Japan, pinapapili ang mga Hapon na may dalawang citizenship sa ibang bansa kung ano ang nationality ang gagamitin habang nasa Japan. Katulad nalang ni Tennis Champion Osaka Naomi na may dalawang nationality. Isa iyang Japanese at Haiti. Sabi ng mga mayroong dual citizenship, ito panuntunan na ito ay isang malaking paglabag sa constitution’s right to pursue happiness and protection of equality under the law.  Sa 50 bansa, Japan lamang ang nagpapabawal nito .  Source: GMA News https://www.gmanetwork.com/news/news/world/772717/japan-court-upholds-ban-on-dual-citizenship/story/?utm_source=GMANews&utm_medium=GMANews&utm_campaign=Twitter
