As people watch the world especially America and how business closures are happening today with retail and shopping malls etc are closing due to the fear that governments had put upon people to stay at home and order everything online making homemade couch potatoes a true fact in life now and made online retailers very rich. The same thing is happening in Japan as street shopping and retailers are now going to try their hand at saving Rycom, Parco city, and Depot Island as i have seen many retailer leave stores and head to these places hoping for a turn around in profits. That leaves places like Kokusai and other prefectures that had really good street markets hanging out to dry and turning those prefectures into ghost towns. There is another true fact i just found yesterday and that's the numbers of how many military personnel are on Island and the numbers are shocking but the Okinawan people wanted lease military and Gov. Tamaki as well and it seems their getting it. As of today there is only 25,000 troops and family members but cannot get exact number of families so the US troop count has dramatically declined and so has their tourist money to spend as well. It's really sad but i'm sorry to say Kokusai street is just another street now and will never be the same and it seems that Okinawa is turning into a corporate island and a shipping hub than a little Hawaii Resort Island that Tamaki thought he could make but failed like every other governor because they are to busy spending Okinawa's revenue on stopping Futenma and Schwab. By spending Okinawa's cash flow for many years from many governors the toll has finally caught up with the fact that Okinawa is broke and the money that governors loved so much having to fight Futenma and Schwab is finally coming to an end because there is no cash flow.</blockquote>
