word cloud




Above is a word cloud created from http://www.rappler.com/sports/specials/olympics/37863-2020-olympics-candidate-cities-preview.

As you can see in the image, the words "weaknesses" and "economy" are written in a relatively large font. This site explained about the strengths and weaknesses of the three candidate cities for the 2020 Olympics, and by just looking at the word cloud, it is easy to guess that each city had weak points. Economy is one of the biggest concerns for a candidate city, since many of the games don't bring much long lasting positive economic effects these days.

results of my survey

イメージ
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". Instead, the issue with the new National Stadium came in first. This could be because there was recent news that a man working at the site committed suicide from overwork. This is the result of the matrix question. As you can se...

Tokyo Olympics from four perspectives: 3. tourist from America

The next perspective is from a tourist from America. *Please note that all perspectives are imaginations based on true circumstances or events. -------------------------------------------------- I'm a tourist from America, and I'm planning to visit Japan again in 2020 to watch the Olympic games, and also go sight-seeing around Tokyo. From my first visit, I felt that Japan is a relatively safe country with various types of public transportation, so I'm not so concerned about my next trip, but I do have some things that I'd prefer it changed so that I can have the best experiences. One important suggestion; they should write the public signs in English, and NOT in Japanese in Roman Letters. For example, there is a station called Shinjuku-sanchoume. If you are not a Japanese speaker, you probably won't be able to understand what "sanchoume" means. So, I would like it if all of it is translated, like, "Shinjuku 3rd Street" so that it...
