Governor Koike Holds Regular Press Conference
Explanation of Toyosu, Olympics and other issues
Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike speaks during a regular weekly press conference at the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building on October 21, 2016, Tokyo, Japan. Koike who is aiming to reduce the cost of hosting the Games visited a potential alternative venue for the rowing and canoe sprint events 400km north of Tokyo in Miyagi Prefecture last Saturday. The cost of constructing the original proposed Sea Forest venue in Tokyo has risen to 49 billion Yen and Koike sees this as an area where savings could be made. (Photo by Rodrigo Reyes Marin/AFLO)
