Japanese Kyodo News Agency on the 6th showed that the 124 newly elected or re-elected Japanese parliamentary senators who were elected or successfully re-elected in July last year were 18.35 million yen (about 170,000 US dollars), a record low.

Compared with the last (2017) property declaration results, the market prices of real estate such as financial assets, land and houses reported by the senators this time shrank sharply by 38.6%. This is also the lowest level of per capita property declared by members of the Senate and House of Representatives since Japan's law requiring members of Congress to publicize their property in 1993 came into effect.
Kyodo News reported that many people identified loopholes in the property declaration system of Japanese lawmakers because they did not have to submit evidence to confirm the amount of their declared property, nor did they have to declare stocks held by their spouses or children, as well as ordinary deposits and cash they held.
According to personal property ranking, Liberal Democratic Party Senators Shunji Furukawa and Lin Fangmasato have more than 100 million yen, reaching 296 million yen (2.74 million US dollars) and 117 million yen (1.08 million US dollars) respectively. Senate Speaker of the Speaker of Shandong Akiko ranked third with 88.15 million yen (816,000 US dollars). She is also the richest female senator.
According to party rankings, the Liberal Democratic Party senators have the largest per capita property, reaching 27.57 million yen (255,000 US dollars).
