ガラガラ
この週末、木・金と東京出張。但し木曜は夕方からの会合であったため、朝１０時ごろの大阪発の新幹線。それにしても驚いた、私の乗った車両は殆ど空席、何か間違ったところに乗ったのかな？と思ったくらい。そこで、他の車両はと思い覗いてみたが、これもガラガラ。
政府は何とかこのコロナ禍の中で経済対策を・・と、必死でゴーツートラベルなる苦肉の策で、打撃の大きかった観光産業に寄与しようと必死であるが、笛吹けど踊らずなのか、驚くほどの情景であった。
１車両に３～４しか乗車してなく、気持ちが悪いくらい。復興には今少しかかりそうですね・・・。
The train is empty.
This weekend, I traveled to Tokyo on Thursday and Friday. As I had a meeting on Thursday evening, I took the Shinkansen from Osaka at around 10am. To my surprise, the train I got on was almost empty. I even wondered if there were any other cars in the car. So I looked in to see if there were any other cars, but they too were deserted.
The government was desperately trying to take economic measures in the midst of the corona disaster, and they were trying desperately to contribute to the hard-hit tourism industry with a desperate measure called “Go-to-Travel”, but it was a surprising scene.
There were only three or four passengers per carriage, and it was a sickening sight. The reconstruction will take a little while now…
