On the 3rd, Hyogo Prefecture Governor Saito expressed his intentions at the first regular prefectural assembly meeting since being re-elected in the gubernatorial election, stating that he would approach running the prefecture’s affairs with a humble attitude, and indicated his intention to quickly establish a whistleblower hotline and to work on creating an organization free of harassment. Governor Saito lost his position in September this year after the prefectural assembly unanimously passed a vote of no confidence, but was re-elected in November’s election. On the 3rd, he made a statement at his first regular prefectural assembly meeting since his reelection, saying, “Since taking office three years ago, I have poured my heart and soul into challenging myself with new business developments and reforms for the people of Hyogo and the prefecture, but in the process, I may have become arrogant and conceited. “I will approach running the prefecture’s affairs through polite dialogue and a humble attitude.” He then commented on the issue of the allegations of power harassment, saying, “It is extremely important that I be accountable to the people of the prefecture, and I will respond sincerely to investigations by the 100-Article Committee and other bodies. “We will take immediate steps to outsource our reporting system and establish strict rules on accepting items, and work to create a corporate culture free of harassment.” He then said, “I would like to build relationships of trust with the prefectural assembly, cities and towns, and prefectural officials, and open the door to the future as one team, with all of Hyogo working together.” This regular session will run until December 13th, with representatives of each party holding questions on the 6th. nhk news web December 3, 2024 13:17.
If you oppose me, I’m afraid Tachibana will be working behind the scenes and making up all sorts of things on social media like YouTube that aren’t true. It seems like a more terrifying workplace than a shady part-time job.
When the section chief committed suicide, was it power harassment to prevent a donation (from volunteer employees) from being made to the family of the deceased?
If Tomoko, who was the deputy director of the Industrial and Labor Bureau and the affair partner of the prefectural government’s director, Watase, becomes mentally ill after her husband sues her for infidelity and commits suicide after the director, is that also Governor Saito’s fault?
