Criticized by the public, it has been said that the state is spending too much money on funerals.
According to foreign media, the cost of Shinzo Abe's funeral is public money, for which public protests have been held and many people have opposed the event.
According to the media, 1.3 billion yen was spent on the funeral of the British Queen Elizabeth, but the cost of the funeral of the former prime minister of Japan is much more than this amount - 1.66 billion yen.
At the same time, the Japanese people also expressed concern over the government's spending on the Olympics games in Tokyo, saying that $13 billion was spent on the event, which was twice the budget of the event.
