7. Closing remarks

”Don’t fantasize, act. Don’t doubt, act. Don’t narrate, act.” These are the words of the seventh mayor of Tokyo, Shinpei Goto, who advocated that “activity is the greatest truth.”

The Grand Reform of Tokyo aims to build a sustainable New Tokyo as the population shrinks and grays. To realize this goal, it is crucial that we share our aspirations for Tokyo’s bright future with you, the members of this Assembly and the citizens of Tokyo, and combine our strengths. We wish to act together with you and promote Tokyo’s grand reform, to take Tokyo to even greater heights as a mature city. The understanding and cooperation of the members of this Assembly and the citizens of Tokyo shall be greatly appreciated.
Including the matters to which I have already referred, a total of 37 proposals have been presented to this regular session of the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly, including 13 proposed ordinances and 18 proposed contracts to be deliberated among the Assembly members.

This concludes my policy speech to the Assembly. Thank you.
