Introduction of us and the topic


   We are university students in Japan studying about controversial issues, and we chose the Tokyo Olympics as our topic.

   There are many controversies relating to the up coming 2020 Tokyo Olympics. The committee holds numerous problems such as plagiarism, over budget, lack of sites, and so on. Although people have been longing for the Olympic games to be held in Tokyo again, the project is proceeding with difficulties since the project kicked in to gear after the announcement by the IOC.

   We are going to focus on three specific controversies; safety, sites, and symbols, and will introduce and discuss about them from various perspectives.

So, what do we need to get done before the games start?

results of my survey

I got 12 answers to my survey, and the results are as below. _____________________________ Surprisingly, only a single person was not supporting Tokyo for the 2020 Olympics host city. Since most of the people who answered the survey lived in Tokyo and other neighboring prefectures, I predicted that less people support it because there has been many negative voices on the news. Instead, there are 4 people for "neither", and reasons for this, they commented that they "don't really care", or "will not have the advantages that claimed so enthusiastically during the bidding process", etc. This result was surprising too, because my prediction was that answers will concentrate  on "soaring budgets".

This is the result of the matrix question. As you can se
