Abe's "national funeral" spending the Queen of Super Yingxin Questions

The "national funeral" of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe will be held on the 27th, and related controversy in Japan is still fermenting. Last week, the funeral of the Queen Elizabeth II of Britain was held in London, and the heads of state and dignitaries attended. The comparison of "national funeral" only one week after two games has become the focus of Japanese public opinion.

Comparison

According to the BBC report on the 24th, it is unclear what the national funeral cost of Elizabeth II is currently unclear, but some media speculate that about 8 million pounds (about 1.3 billion yen, 100 yen, about 4.9 yuan, about 4.9 yuan ), The Japanese government's previously announced "national funeral" cost was 1.66 billion yen. In this regard, Japanese netizens have said, "How can the cost of Abe's funeral be more than that of the British Queen Kingdom?" In social media, many netizens believe that according to the precedent of the final cost of the Tokyo Olympics, Abe " The cost of national funeral may be higher than the budget. Some people commented, "I don't believe it is only 1.6 billion yen, and it will eventually become 4 billion yen."

The BBC said that in Japan, the British Ceremony, which was reported by large -scale reports, showed the grief of the British citizens and people's love for the queen. This is in sharp contrast to the attitude of Japanese public opinion on Abe's "national funeral". Abe is the second Japanese Prime Minister who enjoys the "national funeral" treatment after former Japanese Prime Minister Yoshida Mao. Some Japanese media compared the costs of "national funeral" twice. In 1967, the Japanese government's cost of "national funeral" for Yoshida Mao was 18.096 million yen, which was about 70 million yen, which was far lower than Abe's "national funeral". cost of. At present, due to the rise in raw material prices and the depreciation of the yen, Japan's price has reached a new high in 31 years.

In a polls conducted by Kyodo News from September 17th to 18th, 72.5%of the respondents thought "inappropriate" for Abe's "national funeral" about 1.66 billion yen.

Japanese media reported that about 700 political leaders representing different countries, regions and international organizations attended Abe's "national funeral", including Indian Prime Minister Modi, Australian Prime Minister Albunse, and US Vice President Harris. Prior to the "national funeral" on the 27th, Japanese Prime Minister Kishida Saka will carry out a three -day "hanging diplomacy". However, Kyodo News previously reported that the national funeral of the British Queen Elizabeth II, which was attended by the heads of state of the world, received widespread attention, making the Japanese government worry that Abe's "national funeral" was dwarfed. Japan's domestic "national funeral" was mixed. In order to avoid "hanging diplomacy" as one of the reasons for the "national funeral", Kishida was questioned and tried to achieve the results of diplomacy.

However, Kyodo News reported on the 25th that Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau announced on the 24th local time that the disaster brought about by the hurricane "Fiona" canceled the plan to attend Abe's "national funeral". Trudeau was originally the only head of the Seventh Kingdom Group (G7) to visit Abe's "national funeral" leader in Japan, and plans to hold talks with Kishida Wenxiong during the visit to Japan. In this regard, Japan's "J-Cast" news website commented that because there are few current government leaders in Japan, the results of "hanging diplomacy" are difficult to expect.

The Japanese current Affairs News Agency reported on the 25th that on the 27th, there were multiple groups of protests on the day of Abe's "national funeral".
