Period of Increased Security

Obama was in Tokyo last week for an official state visit. There was massive additional security and in some places it seemed that you couldn't walk a hundred meters without seeing a policeman. Various news agencies including Yomiuri Shimbun and USA Today, were reported that an additional 16,000 police were on patrol the city for Obama's 36-hour visit.

These signs were posted in the subways and train stations all over the city. This one was spotted in Nogizaka last week.
