Telework that received the new coronavirus seems to be spreading in Australia as well. Since the new Corona, more and more people are "escape" from the big city of Sydney. In Australia, where there are many immigrants from abroad, the population tends to be concentrated in urban areas where there are jobs. One guideline is the rate of increase in house prices. In eight cities such as Sydney and Melbourne, the rate of increase was 2%. But in rural areas other than these big cities, it was up 6.9%. When house prices rose, it was common for urban areas to outpace rural areas. A popular area is the Kilkea area, which is about an hour and a half drive from Sydney. Although it is expensive at 130 million yen for 4LDK, it is a popular property. Telework has become commonplace with the new Corona, and it seems that more and more people are focusing on their lifestyle.
Similar to Australia, there is a population outflow in Tokyo. With the spread of the new Corona virus, the population is flowing out of Tokyo. The number of people who moved out of Tokyo in November 2020 was about 28,000, an increase of 19% from the same month of the previous year. It seems that the area where they are moving is within 50 to 100 km from central Tokyo. The emigration destinations are around Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture, Sagamihara City, Nagareyama City, Chiba Prefecture, and Utsunomiya City, Tochigi Prefecture. Some local governments see the crisis as an opportunity. We see this as an opportunity to attract excellent human resources to rural areas. Some local governments have a system to subsidize 1.5 million yen when they move from Tokyo and conclude a housing acquisition contract.
A densely populated area is an area that is susceptible to infection. It was a karaoke shop that was troubled by this fact. Certainly, if you sing in a group, you will meet the condition of three infections. But there are people who take advantage of the crisis and try to do new things. In Corona, people devise ways to relieve and relieve stress. From a different point of view, the karaoke shop is a safe place. If one person uses one room, the environment will be similar to that of a house, even if it is a closed room. The karaoke shop created a menu called "Morning Song" and made it available from 300 yen for 30 minutes. Before going to work, some people used the karaoke shop alone to relieve stress instead of the coffee shop. Some of the people who went higher were those who brought in musical instruments and used them instead of soundproof rooms.
Some people find a way to get through it well and happily even if they get into trouble. They think that you should choose multiple favorite things at work, like a buffet dining room where you can choose and eat what you like. If you can secure multiple sources of income, you will be motivated to try what you want to do. A man in his thirties who retired from a financial business realized his longing to move to a rural area. With the skills he has cultivated in the financial industry, he supports local companies in finance and marketing consulting. This salary will be 150,000 yen. In addition, as a village supporter in the town, I earn 170,000 yen a month. And he earns 10,000 yen for mowing. He seems to be doing more than 30 different jobs in this area. They stabilize their income by having multiple jobs. If you can secure multiple sources of income, there seems to be a local environment where you can live if you reduce fixed costs to some extent.
It was reported that all major restaurant stocks were bought in the market the other day. There is a growing expectation that the corona excess will subside and that we will be able to enjoy the return of food service demand in the future. Certainly, if the corona overrun calms down, tourist destinations will be filled with tourists, as in last year's "Go to Travel." Looking at the entire Japanese household, households are swelling by about 25 trillion yen from normal times due to curbing consumption and obtaining benefits. When people are deprived of their freedom, they become more stressed and worried. And this suppressed stress tries to release. Everyone expects that if this is released, demand should come back in a "double". As the infection subsides, it is predicted that money will go to travel, eating and drinking, which have been refrained from until now. Those familiar with stocks seem to anticipate travel and food explosions. They take this explosion and dissipate and relieve stress well. The entrepreneur will have a mechanism to continue traveling and eating. In a sense, it's a business opportunity.
The tide of side jobs has changed dramatically in the last few years, and it is becoming more common for people to have side jobs. Recently, "multi-workers" who handle many jobs in parallel are playing an active role. If multi-work works well, the effect of risk diversification will be great. In addition to increasing income and improving skills, the effect of risk diversification can be expected. It is known as a rule of thumb that new value is created by bringing together irrelevant separate things. Although the types of jobs and incomes are different, it is becoming possible to earn a profitable livelihood by combining a large number of jobs. Among the multi-workers, there are relationships skills, social contribution skills, money earning, and more. In some cases, the network of one job can lead to a virtuous cycle, such as being able to use it for another job.
Agricultural policies of countries around the world provide subsidies. Many subsidies have been given to farmers who have increased grain production and who have raised a lot of livestock. However, recently, some countries are subsidizing businesses that are not directly related to the production of agricultural products. For example, Switzerland is increasing new subsidies to farmers to protect the natural landscape. Measures are being taken to enrich the region by combining agriculture and tourism. Agricultural areas are also enriched by the management of guest houses that take advantage of agriculture and natural landscapes. Areas with a high sense of well-being seem to have not only single-track systems but also double-track systems. Areas that value happiness are rich in cultural quality and creativity. In such areas, it seems that working for oneself enhances the affluence of the area and builds a mechanism that leads to environmental protection.
