Japanese Media Attention On Tokyo Bay
Courtesy of All-Nippon News Network, Tokyo Bay, Japan.
While there is plenty of inspirational news and interesting information about the
2020 Tokyo Olympic Games throughout the global media, the Japanese media is offering a significant amount of attention on the warm water temperatures and pool water quality that is found in
Tokyo Bay where the Olympic triathletes and marathon swimmers and Paralympic triathletes will compete in July – August 2020.
The Japanese-language (only) information flow has been constant and comprehensive on Japanese television, magazines and newspapers and in online publications.
This week, the Tokyo governor publicly expressed her concerns about and countermeasures to help make the
Odaiba Marine Park and Tokyo Bay as presentable and reasonable as possible for the
Olympic and Paralympic athletes.
