I attended the "Designated City Summit" held in Kitakyushu City.
We adopted seven requests, proposals, and requests, such as "Recommendations of Designated City Mayors' Association for Early Realization of Diverse Large City System," and exchanged opinions with Masanobu Ogura, Minister for Children's Policy.
On the same day, the Mayors' Association of Designated City, where I serve as a subleader, also held a project to realize diverse metropolitan systems. Based on the discussions at the meeting, designated cities will work together to promote activities aimed at realizing various metropolitan systems, such as legislation of the special municipal system, which will lead to fostering momentum throughout the country. .
