小池さんでいいと思うよ。

 小池さんでいいと思うよ。

大きな失敗はないし、お金の問題もない。知事の給料を半分にする、という公約を掲げて知事に当選したけど、2期目の今でもそれを実行している。おかげで、小池知事の給料は、全国の知事の中で一番少ないというだけでなく、都議会議員の平均よりも少ない。それでも、仕事には熱心で、倒れちゃうほど仕事をする。 小池都政の実績も意外に多い。石原都政が生んだ豊洲移転問題を小池がしりぬぐいをして最終解決。東京都公文書管理条例の制定。東京都受動喫煙防止条例の制定。東京都児童虐待防止条例の制定。都政のデジタル化(ペイパーレス・ハンコレス・キャッシュレス)。都庁における自律改革システムの導入。都政の情報公開(情報公開ポータル)。グリーンボンド導入。 小池都政になって東京の経済は極めて順調(東京都のGDPが104兆円から115兆円へ4年間で11兆円増加)。 小池都政のもとで犯罪数(刑法犯件数)が半減してる。 よくアンチ小池派に誤解されている「ゼロを目指す改革」の公約は実はすべて達成している。たとえば、満員電車解消を目指す改革(テレワークシステム、時差出勤システム)、待機児童解消を目指す改革(大幅改善)、無電柱化を目指す改革(センター・コアでほぼ100%完成)、ペット殺処分ゼロ達成、花粉症対策のための森林植え替えプロジェクト 等々。


I think Koike-san is a good choice.

There have been no major failures, and there are no financial issues. She was elected governor with a pledge to halve the governor’s salary, and she continues to fulfill this promise even in her second term. As a result, Governor Koike’s salary is not only the lowest among all governors in Japan, but it is also less than the average salary of Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly members. Despite this, she is dedicated to her work, working so hard that it’s almost overwhelming.

Koike’s administration has surprisingly many achievements. She resolved the Toyosu relocation issue, which was a problem inherited from the Ishihara administration. She established the Tokyo Metropolitan Public Document Management Ordinance, the Tokyo Passive Smoking Prevention Ordinance, and the Tokyo Child Abuse Prevention Ordinance. She pushed for the digitalization of Tokyo’s administration (paperless, hanko-less, cashless systems). She introduced a self-reform system within the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and enhanced transparency through an information disclosure portal. She also introduced Green Bonds.

Under Koike’s administration, Tokyo’s economy has been extremely favorable (Tokyo's GDP increased from 104 trillion yen to 115 trillion yen, a growth of 11 trillion yen over four years).

The number of crimes (penal code offenses) has halved under Koike’s administration.

The “Reforms Aiming for Zero” pledge, often misunderstood by anti-Koike factions, has actually been fully achieved. For example, reforms aimed at eliminating overcrowded trains (telework systems, staggered work hours), reforms aimed at eliminating waiting lists for daycare (significant improvements), reforms aimed at eliminating utility poles (nearly 100% completion in the central core area), achieving zero pet euthanasia, and forest replanting projects for pollen allergy countermeasures, among others.
