"I have committed dozens of different thefts in the prefecture."
You dingbat.
in which thieves broke into stores during the early hours of the morning and stole cash and other items.
the items, I can understand.
But the cash? don't these stores do daily deposits of the day's earnings in the bank? or at least lock up what's there, in a safe?

Posted in: Elementary school boy drowns during swimming class in western Japan See in context
at a swimming pool in a nearby junior high school as his elementary school's swimming pool could not be used due to an equipment failure
this information is key.
I recently went to my child's elementary school, they had an open swim day. The pool was the same depth all around, shallow enough so that even the first graders could stand up in it without problem. Which means it would be nearly impossible to drown.
JHS, I am assuming is NOT all the same depth, and there are parts where smaller kids can't stand up in.
This as well as teacher negligence led to this horrible incident. I doubt this will lead to any changes in the system, but there sure should be. Fast.

Sounds exactly like his situation in Japan.
He should be right at home, then.
IDK how Kish does it, week in and week out.
Doesn't he ever get tired of going to so many different places, and saying so many things, yet accomplishing absolutely nothing in the process?
Sounds like he deserves a rais....................wait a minute.
Didn't the entire Diet just give themselves self declared raises?
Well...........mission accomplished.

So we have to wait over two years for this? And then will it actually be enforced?
Maybe if the worthless cops, actually did their job and patrolled the streets once in a while (and not in a group on specific days only), AND THEN actually enforced laws and handed out penalties, maybe there would be some decline in such accidents.
On any given day there are over a dozen horrible drivers out there, yet no one gets penalized.

People in Kyoto are unhappy because taxpayers cannot board municipal buses, and their daily lives are being disrupted.
This has been the issue, well before the current tourist boom and corona. Nothing significant has changed in at least the last 25 years, as far as public transportation goes.
Until they step up and start making plans, it will probably the same for the next 25 years.
