Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi (at the time) had, when he was young, been hospitalized in a psychiatric hospital for mental illness, and he had the term "seishin bunretsu-byo" (the old Japanese term for schizophrenia) hunted down and replaced with "togo shicchō-shō" (the current Japanese term for schizophrenia)…
I read, back in the day on the internet, so many times that my ears practically grew calluses, the story that Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi (at the time) had been hospitalized in a psychiatric hospital when he was young due to mental illness, and that it was Koizumi who conducted a word-hunt on the term “seishin-bunretsu-byo” (schizophrenia) and forced it to be changed to “togo-shitchosho” (schizophrenia), but now, even if I search for it, almost nothing comes up. ○ Moving companies and the like, when parking a medium-size truck near a work site, always attach wheel chocks (wheel-stopping devices) as a countermeasure against parking enforcement, but regarding the regulations on these wheel chocks, in the written tests at driver’s license centers of as many as 16 prefectural police departments, erroneous questions were asked, and after pointing out and instructing by the National Police Agency, the questions were corrected and 95 people who had been marked as failing were promoted to passing. It is said that they were deleted in the revised Road Traffic Act.
