This week's news

 This week, I covered the news about the retirement age in Japan, which is my debate topic. 


Daito Kentaku, a major Japanese company, has decided to introduce a selective retirement age system until the age of 65. Now it is a 60-year-old retirement age, but from next year, it seems that you will be able to choose when to retirement between the ages of 60 and 65. As the number of workers is decreasing, it seems that one of the goals is to propose a flexible way of working for veterans and secure workers. 


 I think it's a good system.  Because they have the right to decide on their own, both employers and workers can work within a reasonable range by working according to their own circumstances. It is believed that the social security system will be damaged if the number of workers continues decline for a long time, so I thought that it was a very big step for Japan that major companies came up with such a policy.

This week's news

 I found some surprising news. Due to the recent rise in prices, some places are now selling popular takoyaki without the octopus. That's very sad, and can we even call it takoyaki? According to the article, they substitute octopus with sausage. I too have noticed an increase in prices recently when shopping. As this article states, I am very concerned about the rising prices of food items such as eggs and octopus.  Refference:  https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/8a87b3711b4eacdfba495fd9cc5a43e030706d05

24-hour restaurant

 Recently, I saw the news that a 24-hour restaurant, Nakau, is going to stop operating 24 hours a day. The dicision was made to keep the store clean. I think this policy will have a great economic impact on both restaurant and employees. Since this restaurant is a chain, closing it for even a few hours would result in a huge loss. Employees will also earn less than they did before the policy. I work part-time at a 24-hour store, so I'm worried about what will happen next.

This week's news

 This week I saw the news that even paper bags at the register are now charged. I understand why there is a charge for plastic shopping bags, but not for paper bags. According to this news, charging for paper bags is also having the effect of encouraging people to use their own bags. I thought this was a very good idea. I would also like to promote the use of eco-friendly bags.
