福岡県議会の蔵内議長が議長と議員辞職が報道されましたよね。
県で海外視察に3年間で23回、2億６5百万円使ったという話から始まり、20万円/泊ハワイのシェラトンホテルスイートに泊まるなど全金の無駄使いに始まり、お金を「渡した」「もらってない」など
領収書も受け取り書もないお金のやり取りをしていた。
まー、本当に、こんなことが今も続いているのかと、恥ずかしくなります。
でも、今回の辞任で一番、恥ずかしい、おかしいと思ったのが
辞職の理由が「若手に迷惑をかける」ということです。
税金をもらって仕事をしているにも関わらず、あくまでも、同じ党員の若手に迷惑がかかるのが一番の理由なら、本当に、県民を見ていないと思われてもしようがないですよね。
本来なら「県民に迷惑をかけた」「議会の停滞を招いて、申し訳ない」というべきもんではないんでしょうか！
福岡知事も言っていましたが、「辞めて済むものではない、しっかりと説明責任を取ってほしいですね」
福岡県民がもっと、怒ってると思うのですが、
それを報道しないのは、何故なんだろう？？？
It was reported that Mr Kurauchi, chair of the Fukuoka Prefectural Assembly, has resigned from his posts as chair and as a councillor, wasn’t it?
It all began with reports that the prefecture had spent 265 million yen on 23 overseas study tours over three years, followed by revelations of a complete waste of public funds—such as staying in a suite at the Sheraton Hotel in Hawaii at 200,000 yen per night—and the exchange of money without receipts or acknowledgements of receipt, with claims of ‘I handed it over’ and ‘I didn’t receive it’.
Well, honestly, it’s embarrassing to think that this sort of thing is still going on.
However, what I found most embarrassing and absurd about this resignation was
that the reason given was ‘causing trouble for younger members’.
Despite being paid from taxpayers’ money to do their jobs, if their primary concern is causing trouble for younger members of their own party, then it’s no wonder people think they’re completely out of touch with the prefecture’s residents.
Shouldn’t they really be saying, ‘I’ve caused trouble for the residents of the prefecture’ or ‘I’m sorry for bringing the assembly to a standstill’?!
As Governor Fukuoka also said, ‘Resigning isn’t enough; I want them to properly fulfil their accountability.’
I imagine the people of Fukuoka Prefecture are even angrier than this,
but why on earth isn’t this being reported???
