Talk about a BIG public works project!

Japan ponders a capital move TOKYO (AP) - Just down the street from Parliament is the Imperial Palace. A stone's throw from that is Asia's biggest stock market. In and around Tokyo are Japan's best schools, its media centers, the bulk of its wealth and nearly a quarter of its population. So much of what makes Japan tick is concentrated in Tokyo that it's scary - and that's why the government wants to move the capital. Worried that everything could come crashing down with a massive earthquake under Tokyo's notoriously shaky ground, officials feel its time to move the government to a more stable place. But while momentum is growing in Parliament for a long-debated government relocation plan, it is also running up against a formidable obstacle - Tokyo City Hall.
