Meeting with reporters on June 30, Komeito Chief Representative Natsuo Yamaguchi praised the government’s expanded financial assistance program for smaller business operators, including those working on a freelance basis. He noted that the expansion grew out of Komeito’s extensive network of local and prefectural legislators who serve as frontline listening posts to the woes and worries of such businesses. He called on those eligible to receive aid to “proactively take advantage of the program” and for public agencies dispensing the aid to do so in a positive and helpful manner.
