日本政府为安保政策宣传设定3亿日元经费上限：「夫妻漫才」式宣传在国会引争议
东京—日本政府11月5日在参议院外务防卫委员会会议上透露，着眼于年内修改《国家安全保障战略》等三份安保文件，政府为安保政策宣传设定的经费上限合计达3亿日元。内阁府负责人说明，宣传按目标人群分为年轻群体和中老年群体两部分，上限各为1.5亿日元。
政府计划通过在互联网与社交平台发布视频、播放电视广告等方式加强安保政策信息发布。其中面向中老年群体的一项宣传已于10月26日在「政府广报在线」网站上线，由吉本兴业的「夫妻漫才」（夫妻双人相声式表演）角色讲解安保与日常生活的关系，主要面向40岁以上女性；面向年轻群体的宣传仍在制作中。
这一做法在国会引发质疑。立宪民主党参议员田岛麻衣子在委员会上表示，安保是关乎人命的事情，把它做成漫才是否合适「非常值得怀疑」。内阁府方面回应称，政府广报的目的是让国民通俗易懂地理解重要政策，此次宣传旨在让国民更深地理解日本所处的安全环境与日常生活的密切关系。
据介绍，此次安保三文件修改预计涉及新的作战方式与应对长期事态的持续应对能力等公众尚不熟悉的内容，防卫费也预计大幅增加，政府希望事先营造社会舆论。

Japan Sets ¥300 Million Cap for Security-Policy Publicity; 'Comedy Duo' Campaign Draws Diet Criticism
TOKYO — The Japanese government disclosed at a Senate Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee meeting on November 5 that it has capped publicity spending for its security policies at ¥300 million in total, ahead of a planned revision by year-end of the three security documents including the National Security Strategy. A Cabinet Office official said the publicity is divided by audience, with a ¥150 million cap each for younger audiences and for middle-aged and older audiences.
The government plans to step up security-policy publicity through videos on the internet and social media and through television advertising. One campaign aimed at middle-aged and older audiences went online on the Government PR Online site on October 26, using a Yoshimoto Kogyo 'married-couple manzai' comedy act to explain how security relates to daily life, aimed mainly at women over 40. The youth-oriented campaign is still in production.
The approach drew criticism in the Diet. Constitutional Democratic Party Senator Maiko Tajima told the committee that security is a matter of human life and that turning it into a comedy act was highly questionable. The Cabinet Office replied that government publicity aims to make important policies easy to understand, and that this campaign is meant to deepen public understanding of how Japan's security environment is closely tied to everyday life.
The planned revision of the three security documents is expected to cover unfamiliar topics such as new operational concepts and the capacity to sustain a response in a prolonged contingency, while defense spending is set to rise substantially, and the government hopes to prepare public opinion in advance.
