PM Takaichi explains criticism over staying home, claiming she is "too busy with housework"

Only 8 field inspections in the approximately 10 months since taking office
(During the same period, former PMs Kishida and Ishiba conducted 31 and 22 inspections, respectively)
Of those, 3 were for receiving foreign leaders, and the rest were for atomic bomb memorial services...
Even during the early stages of the Iran-US war, no cabinet meetings were held
(At that time, the South Korean President even convened an emergency cabinet meeting at dawn after a tour of Southeast Asia)
Takaichi frequently claims she is busy with housework every time
And that she only gets 2 hours of sleep a day,
But Japanese people are saying, "That is nothing to be proud of,"
And suggesting she should leave the housework to staff and focus on state affairs
She tried to use power naps and being a "working mom" as selling points,
But it is not working at all in modern Japan
