TOKYO: Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi moved from the House of Representatives members’ dormitory in Akasaka, Tokyo, to the Prime Minister’s Official Residence on Monday (Dec 29), two months after taking office, in a move intended to make her more prepared to fully manage any crisis that might arise.
The residence is just a one-minute walk from the Prime Minister’s Office, which is located on the same grounds, whereas the dormitory where she has resided is about 400 metres away, requiring her to travel by car.
