Today, no earth and sand were shipped out of Awa and Shiokawa. The construction of the new base is suspended completely. Most likey to prevent COVID-19 from spreading widely.
The number of infected cases is 116 as of 19th. It is expected to increase, and resuming the construction is not likely to happen in the near future. A vast amount of our tax money should not be spent to build a US military base. A wise political decision would be to invest it in prevention of further spread of the virus infection.
