Japan: More Than 1 Million Dollars Were Spent On Shinzo Abe’s Funeral
The ceremonial funeral of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe would cost the Japanese government a total of one million and eighty-three thousand dollars. On July 8, a shooting took place during an election rally in which Shinzo Abe, Japan’s longest-serving prime minister, was killed. Even though his last rites have already been carried out, the government has decided to carry out the ceremonies once more on September 27 with official honors.
