Support rising in Japan for Tokyo Olympics this summer: Poll

TOKYO: About a third of Japanese now back holding the Olympics, up from just 14 per cent last month, a new poll showed on Monday , though a majority still prefer cancellation or postponement because of the pandemic.

Organisers have ruled out postponing the Games again, and the first Olympic athletes have already arrived in Japan. The shift in sentiment will be welcome news for organisers, who are expected to announce later Monday how many local fans, if any, will be in the stands for the Games.After a coronavirus state of emergency ended in Tokyo on Sunday, new restrictions limit audiences at large events to 5,000 people or 50 per cent capacity, whichever is smallest.

Nevermind,let greedy evil one get paid by what they did! They want2suffer more,let it,c who laughs more After d outcome. Like Bible said: What they plant, what they'll get lo!World Ending V soon bc of too many idiot!
