japan’s pm kishida reprimands aide for outing same sex couple
Tokyo: Although a Tokyo court upheld a ban on same-sex marriage from November, it said the lack of legal protection for same-sex families violated their human rights. Recent act in Japan…..
On Saturday the Prime Minister of Japan Fumio Kishida reprimanded one of his secretaries. The reason behind this is that he did not want to live with gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender couples. The secretary said people would flee Japan if same-sex marriage was allowed.
Masayoshi Arai, a Japanese government bureaucrat, made comments to the media on Friday in which he said he does not even want to see same-sex couples. Let me remind you that he is a bureaucrat who has worked for Kishida since October.
His statement on same sex couples is one of the reasons for heat waves among the nation!
The PM Kishida said about his comment that- “His comments are outrageous and completely inconsistent with the administration’s policies,”
The PM of Japan showed his anger on the bureaucrat Arai and said in front of the media that he might fire Arai for making such misleading remarks and creating an environment of insecurity for the people of Japan ,he should apologize.
Prime Minister Kishida told parliament that gay marriage needed careful consideration because of its potential impact on family structure.
