Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida Visual China Picture
On August 10, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida will reorganize the cabinet on a large scale and make adjustments to the personnel of the Liberal Democratic Party. How will he treat the "Abe faction" led by former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe during his lifetime become the focus of this time.
According to Japan Kyodo News on August 9, Japan Liberal Democratic Party held an interim high-level meeting and general affairs meeting on the 48th, and decided that the party's senior personnel shall be fully responsible for the people. Kishida will implement cabinet restructuring and senior party personnel arrangements on the 10th. It has been finalized that the party’s vice president Aso Taro and Secretary-General Toshima Motegi Toshima is retained. In addition, it is being coordinated to allow financial minister Shunyi Suzuki to remain in office, and the government backbone remains unchanged.
reorganizes the cabinet. In addition to Suzuki, Chief Officer Hiroichi Matsuno, Foreign Minister Fushimasa, and Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transportation from the Komeito Party, Saito Tetsuo are also planning to remain in office, and more than half of the cabinet may be replaced. There is a plan to propose that economic and industrial factors remain in the cabinet, or to serve as the president of the political and regulatory affairs committee and other important positions within the party.
Kishida government is mainly supported by the Mogi faction, the second largest faction of the Liberal Democratic Party, the third largest faction of the Aso faction and the fourth largest faction of the Kishida faction. How to build a whole-party system while taking into account the largest faction "Abe faction" that was shaken after the death of Abe has become the focus of this personnel adjustment.
It is worth noting that among the four major positions within the Liberal Democratic Party, the current president of General Affairs Fukuda Dhafu and the president of Political Commitment Sae Naoki Takashi are likely to be replaced. Although Takashi had no faction, he was close to Abe during his lifetime. Kyodo News also pointed out that the stay and departure of Abe's younger brother and defense minister Nobuo Kishi has also attracted much attention. Kishi Nobuo is in poor health like Abe. He is currently working in a wheelchair. " Yomiuri Shimbun " also stated in a report on August 6 that Nobuo Kishi may be replaced due to health problems. In addition, Abe was assassinated because he was too close to the "Unified Church", and Nobuo Kishi also admitted that he had something to do with the "Unified Church".
Kishida Fumio once said that whether there is a relationship with "unified education" is also a factor in his consideration when making personnel adjustments. The Ministry of Education and Culture Science Aimatsu Nobusuke's political funding voucher was purchased by a church-related person, while the Ministry of Economics and Industry Aima Hagida Koichi admitted that he had delivered a speech at related activities. Nobuo Kishi, Sumatsu and Haginoda all belong to the "Abe faction". Many of the Liberal Democratic Party members who were exposed to have a relationship with the church are also "Abes".
At present, the Kitan government faces multiple challenges. The epidemic in Japan is severe and prices are rising. After Abe was assassinated, Kishida announced that he would hold a state funeral, but the public opposed it and the support rate dropped. Kishida therefore advanced the cabinet restructuring, which was originally scheduled to be carried out in September, in order to overcome the crisis.
Akichi Nakano, a professor of political science at Ueto University in Japan, previously pointed out in an exclusive interview with Pengpai News that whether the cabinet restructuring can proceed smoothly is the first test Kishida faces after Abe's death. If the reorganization can proceed smoothly, it means that when Abe leaves, Kishida can hold considerable dominance. But if the rightist forces rebound, or the appointees are forced to resign due to the (with the Unification Church) scandal, it means Kishida has failed, which will further lead to a decline in Kishida's support rate.
