Political Background: Abe-Aso Cabinet leaders to support smoking
In June 2017, the former Minister of Health, Labor and Welfare Shiozaki
has said that the anti-smoke law should
not be ashamed before the world. The minister stressed that many citizens
still suffer serious second-hand smoke
in public facilities,such as restaurants and workplaces. He also said,'
For the 2020 Tokyo-Olympic, we are
responsible for succeeding the tradition of the Olympic without tobacco.
If a restricted exception was set up at a small-scale restaurant, the Minister
said that the principles and exceptions
would reserve and in most restaurants and bars, and the user can put a
cigarette at a food-serving shop.

The flow of politics has changed greatly toward unfavorable direction,
in August 2017.Prime Minister Abe and
Finance Minister, Aso dismissed Minister Shiozaki, because he disagreed
to a request of LDP members who
admit smoking in the restaurant and bars. As a result, the Tobacco Chairperson
of LDP was nominated as
a Minisiter in demand of Tokyo Olympic Games. He is the brother in law
of Finance Minister Aso. At the same time,
Representative Kato, who claims a separate smoking booth in a restaurant,
was newly appointed as the next
Minister of Health.

Mr. Aso was in good humor in a pub, before he resigned in 2009.
政治のトップのものの発言と思われないような失言が多い。2兆円あまりの選挙目当ての給付金のばらまき行政といい、
後のことを考えないで行う思いつきの政治を行っている。タバコ規制とかタバコ税値上げに賛成する医師らを牽制したい
心の葛藤が、こうした「医師は常識が欠落」発言となって表面化したのであろう。タバコを吸いながら物事を考え、
行動しないから、こういうことを引き起こしたとも推測される。支持率の低迷後、麻生内閣は2009年9月に総辞職した。
喫煙行為をサポートし、JTはたばこからの収益を、国は税収を守る
