  • In the past, the election period has been a time to “broadcast the candidate’s views,” that is, to tell voters what the candidate thinks one way or the other. I believe that this time around we can use technology to make it a period where people’s opinions are heard. In the world of digital democracy, we call this “[broad listening”. Through this broad listening, I would like to make the election period a time for everyone to think about ideal policies.

  • My number card to verify your identity and achieve one-person, one-vote voting.
  • and
  • Audrey Tang has commented on this.
    • “I like the way Mr. Anno combines broad listening, the my number system, and the open source spirit.”

Finally, in running for office, I consulted with Audrey Tang, former Taiwanese Minister of Digital Development and a leading expert on digital democracy. She gave me warm words and specific advice. I would like to introduce some of them here. “I like the way Anno-san combines the broad listening, my number system, open source (software, etc.) mentality.” “Mr. Anno is not protesting. I like that very much. He is saying, ‘We can change for the better’.” Mr. Audrey Tan was 33 years old, the same age I am now, when she took up the challenge of the administrative world. I am very happy that I was able to take on this challenge at such a time and that she sent me these words. I feel that Tokyo has great potential to become a world-leading city. I believe we can change for the better.
