2020 Olympics will be watched over by the 1/1 scale Gundam

"When in Rome..." seems to be the mindset of some of those bosses. They do genuinely want to be more friendly and outwardly appealing to foreigners but not too much and in not too much of a foreign way. "This is Japan, therefore, do it like the Japanese." I just wonder what the bureaucrats' response will be when hordes of foreigners come to Japan and start acting like foreigners.

Thank you for many great videos! Do you know of any articles writing and reflection on the same dilemmas that you bring up in this video? Keep your great work up! Enjoying your videos at lot!

To Japanchanneldotcom. You are right with your observations. Especially with the "old guard culture" running the show. I completely agree with your observations but am also interested in what you think are solutions to closing the gap.

You are right. It will be busier for the period that the games are hosted. BUT there is no other city in the world that has the infrastructure in place ready to cope with it. As JCDC says the harder issue will be with the culture factor goes. That is a main point. Communication will be key. I wholeheartedly think that the Japanese will have to adapt more than the other way around. No doubt about it.

Yeah Australians like to win a lot. Every olympics it's consistently about winning gold. Silvers dont even get a mention haha.

the Olympics.....
-
And what is supposed to happen?
-
I hope to go to the 2020 Olympics
-
people whined about china and it was amazing.
-
Yeah transport is going to be pretty screwed-over by the presence of the Olympics, the population density and overall traffic is already pretty intense.
-
6 Years * man. I'll definitely be there.
-
I will go to this mark my words...
-
Japan is just fine the way it is. But I don't live there.
-
Tokyo was the less expensive project of the 3 candidate cities for the 2020 Olympics, and Japan is doing well in the economy right now so it was a good choice.

In Canada (Ontario at the very least) you have compulsory English/French classes (depending on which language school you go to), and many people are still terrible at the other language.
