The Tokyo District Public Prosecutor’s Office and the Japan Fair Trade Commission recently launched a search of the homes of advertising giant Hakuhodo and others in a bid-rigging case involving bids for the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics test competitions. Following the largest company, Dentsu, the situation developed into a situation where major companies in the advertising industry were suspected of being involved one after another. The Special Investigation Department and the Japan Fair Trade Commission have just launched a search for Hakuhodo, a major advertising company. The Special Investigation Department and the Japan Fair Trade Commission suspected collusion with regard to 26 bids for the 2018 Olympic test competition, which was ordered by the Organizing Committee of the Games and participated by nine companies and one organization, including Dentsu. On the 25th of this month, Dentsu and the event company “Celespo” are being searched. In this bidding, it is known that there is a suspicion that the former executives of the Organizing Committee’s Tournament Management Bureau, who placed the order, and an employee who was seconded from Dentsu to the Tournament Management Bureau, were aware of the company’s wishes in advance. , many of the bids had only one company participating. A company that received an order for the planning work of the test tournament through bidding will then receive an order to operate the venue for the main tournament under a non-bid contract. The Special Investigation Department and the Fair Trade Commission are expected to clarify the actual situation of what kind of exchanges occurred before the bidding. ▼TBS NEWS DIG official website https://newsdig.tbs.co.jp/ ▼Please subscribe to the channel! http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6AG81pAkf6Lbi_1VC5NmPA?sub_confirmation=1 ▼Provide information here “TBS Insiders” https://www.tbs.co.jp/news_sp/tbs-insiders.html ▼Provide video Click here for “TBS Scoop Post” https://www.tbs.co.jp/news_sp/toukou.html
