Dan Harada and I go at it again this Friday because the evolution of Japanese politics is unfolding so rapidly. Join us for this update 10 days before the Diet recollects to elect again(!) a new Prime Minister! Who will it be... and what does this portend?
The time-tested coalition of the LDP and Komeito is skidding: Komeito lost their brand-new leader within days specifically due to LDP machinations. A new driving force in Japanese politics is emerging; maybe not firing on all 8 pistons but what/who will be that engine? Dan Harada and Timothy Langley deliver insiders' views this Friday over lunch, November 1st, 12 noon Tokyo. This is still very much a moving target for sure: tune-in to stay up.
