British Principal Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport visits the governor

On Tuesday, November 18, Mr. Sajid Javid, Principal Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, paid a courtesy call on Governor Masuzoe.

Speaking to the culture secretary, the governor said, “Last month, I traveled to London where I met with Mayor Boris Johnson and was shown several London 2012 venues, which was very helpful. When Tokyo hosts the Games in 2020, I not only want to focus on sports, but also culture, and show Japan’s culture to the world. Tokyo also has an arts council, and I hope to continue developing the cooperative relationship with the Arts Council England. Your support in this area would be greatly appreciated.”
