Tokyo ramen shop owner sets "Japanese only" rule as countermeasure against coronavirus

However, in the wake of last week’s announcement of Japan’s first fatality from the virus, one ramen shop owner has established an even more strict ban: Japanese only.
This new rule was put in place at Tokyo ramen shop Sanji, located within Ueno district.
Owned by @sanji_kinchan, who we will refer to as Kinchan, their newest social media post has caused quite a stir among Japanese Twitter users.
It should be noted that Japan passed a law against hate speech in 2016, however, no parts of this law specifically detail a punishment for hate speech nor does it outline as to what may constitute as hate speech.
Instead, some localities such as Kawasaki have stepped up to the plate to self-determine their own hate speech laws.
