The chief executive officer of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic organising committee, Toshiro Muto, has warned fans that next summer’s rearranged Olympic Games will go ahead in a “simplified” format.
Speaking in a news conference on Wednesday, Muto said that the rearranged Olympics will “not be done with grand splendour”, but will instead be simplified.
The Olympics, which were originally set to take place in July 2020, were postponed until next year following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.
And now it seems plans for the rearranged Games will involve major changes as the organizers look to streamline the event to reduce costs and ensure it passes off without a hitch next summer. (RT)
