Slum Upgrading:
Slum upgrading is to improve the poor living of people who live in slums. Many slums don’t have basic local services such as safe drinking water, sanitation, wastewater and solid waste management. Many people do not believe that slum upgrading is successful. They point to the difficulties in providing the necessary resources either in a way that is helpful to the slum-dwellers or in a way that has long-term effectiveness. Alternatives to slum upgrading include the construction of other apartments for people living in slums (rather than fixing the arrangement itself) or the forced removal of slum dwellers from the land.

Health
Health standards in Tokyo are similar to those found in other highly industrial countries. Restaurants are most often really clean,
and the food is safe to eat and the water safe to drink everywhere. Noise and pollution are stubborn problems in the city. Electronic billboards report sound levels and air pollution. Air quality has gotten better in recent years and oontinues to improve.

These results shows that Tokyo does not have a smooth flow of traffic. New York and London have a much smoother flow than Tokyo.
