Shukan Post: Tokyo Fire Department Reveals Troubled Emergency Calls

The Tokyo Fire Department disclosed that it engaged in 660,000 emergency operations last year based on emergency calls made by Tokyoites. However, it was found that 90 percent of their emergency operations were for cases which did not need such operations. .
