However, the former prime minister, who aimed to balance the economy and infection control, resigned just a year and a few months after he took office, saying it caused the worst spread of infection in history.Įvery country seems to be struggling with economic resumption and fighting against the pandemic.Īt this month's meeting of the International Fugu Association, the aim of promotion activities in both countries for the fiscal year is as follows. Local journalists say that the Malaysian government decided to restart the economy amid the spread of the infection was the economic downturn caused by the lockdown. If you don't have a vaccine passport, you can't go anywhere, so I hear that you have to get a vaccine for your freedom. The number of seats is limited to 50% of the regular seatings. It seems that restaurants are now open, and serving alcoholic drinks is allowed, but it is limited to vaccinated people. Many people are seemingly going out from home. However, the number of cases has peaked out at present, but it is still high at about 8,300 people/day (equivalent to 31,000 people based on the Japanese population).įrom September 10, the Malaysian government lifted the lockdown in the metropolitan area, and economic activity is recovering gradually. Malaysia has taken steps to relax restrictions ahead of Japan. Singapore, which has the highest vaccination rate in Asia, is drawing attention for future measures. Up to now, eating out was allowed for up to 5 people, but it is limited to 2 people.

It has long been said that Fugu is in season from the equinoctial week in autumn to the equinoctial week in spring, so we want to expect the opening of a full-scale Fugu eating season. In the morning and evening, we feel the signs of autumn more strongly. The seasons change, so saury, matsutake mushrooms, sweet potatoes, among others, are appearing more in mass retailers. Still, it is likely to be postponed because there are also prime minister elections and lower house elections. We hope that the Japanese economy will recover by quickly creating a system such as a vaccine passport, taking overseas as an example. The Japanese government will probably lift The state of emergency at the end of this month, but it will still take some time to get back to normal life.
