With the state funeral for former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe scheduled to be held at the Nippon Budokan in Tokyo in September, the government is gearing up to host leaders and dignitaries from around the world.
Due to the circumstances surrounding the fatal attack on Abe, the government intends to take all possible precautions regarding the security and protection of guests. A team will soon be established at the Cabinet Office that will coordinate the details of the ceremony.
