Chako: Hey Log, did you hear about the discussion on abolishing the temporary gasoline tax rate?
Log: Yeah, the Constitutional Democratic Party is proposing a bill together with the Japan Innovation Party and the Democratic Party for the People.
Chako: Exactly! I hope this will lead to a decrease in gasoline prices!
Log: Definitely, it’s something that should be welcomed as it eases the burden on the public.
Navi: Just to add, since the temporary tax rate is added on top of the gasoline tax, its abolition is expected to directly lower prices.

Admin’s Note

The proposal to abolish the provisional gasoline tax is an important issue that directly affects people’s lives. Especially in the current tough economic climate, reducing the burden on citizens is a pressing concern for many. In the conversation between Chako and Log, the importance of alleviating the people’s burden was emphasized, and I want to closely watch how the implementation of such a bill will impact everyone.
