  • JAPAN: the Silence Defeated Suga, As Eyes Turn Now to Kono
    Asia | September 3, 2021 JAPAN: The silence defeated Suga, as eyes turn now to Kono ● Strategic silence from Abe and Aso undermined Yoshihide Suga, but the prime minister’s own gambits hastened his departure. ● Taro Kono is set to enter the race as the favorite, and Kishida may now be joined by Ishiba and other candidates. ● The LDP’s prospects for the general election will now improve, as will the likelihood of another stimulus package The dominos all fell quickly at the end. Perhaps the chief factor in Yoshihide Suga’s decision to step down from his positions as party president and prime minister was the ongoing silence of two of the kingmakers, his boss of eight years and former PM Shinzo Abe, and his current deputy PM and Finance Minister Taro Aso. Their lack of public support created the space for doubts to fester in Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) circles about whether the factionally-unaligned premier would secure the votes to repeat his unlikely victory of 12 months ago. Suga also hastened his own departure with two consequential gambits this week – first floating the idea of a snap September election that resulted in blowback from jittery party colleagues, then presenting several prominent names with a back-me-or-I’ll-sack-myself ultimatum with his plan to reshuffle top posts only weeks before the party vote. Environment Minister Junichiro Koizumi and others ultimately seem to have concluded that Suga’s offers of promotion were akin to being given front-row deck chairs on the Titanic. The leadership race opens The incumbent’s withdrawal leaves the field open in the party leadership race.

  • Administration of Joseph R. Biden, Jr., 2021 the President's News
    Administration of Joseph R. Biden, Jr., 2021 The President's News Conference With Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga of Japan April 16, 2021 President Biden. Well, good afternoon. The Prime Minister has brought the sun out, so he can do about anything. Mr. Prime Minister, thank you for being here. It's been my pleasure to welcome Prime Minister Suga to the White House. This is our first in-person meeting here, the first head of state that I've asked in my administration to come to the White House. Yoshi, thank you for making the long trip to Washington. We've already met several times virtually on—at a G–7 meeting and a Quad leader summit, but I greatly appreciate the chance to spend time with you in person and to make our—exchange our ideas face to face. There's no substitute for face-to-face discussions. We are still talking—taking COVID precautions, being careful. But our commitment to meet in person is indicative of the importance and the value we both place on this relationship between Japan and the United States, this partnership. We had a very productive discussion today. When nations as close as ours get together, we always look for operations and opportunities to do more, and today was no exception. So, Yoshi, you'll probably be seeing a lot more of me in the future. And today Prime Minister Suga and I affirmed our ironclad support for U.S.-Japanese alliance and for our shared security. We committed to working together to take on the challenges from China and on issues like the East China Sea, the South China Sea, as well as North Korea, to ensure a future of a free and open Indo-Pacific.

  • Japan's Way Forward: the Prospects for Political Leadership and The
    From Looking for Leadership: The Dilemma of Political Leadership in Japan, 2015 Japan’s Way Forward: 8 The Prospects for Political Leadership and the International Implications James GANNON and Ryo SAHASHI he success that Shinzo Abe had after his 2012 election in breaking Japan’s pattern of one-year premierships offered hope to some that a new era of effective political leadership was at hand for Tthe country. However, it appears that any respite from Japan’s “leadership deficit” will be temporary. As the authors of this volume argue, there are bound to be exceptions to the parade of short-lived prime ministers who struggle to advance their agendas—strong premiers such as Yasuhiro Nakasone, Junichiro Koizumi, and Abe are likely to emerge from time to time—but without further changes to the political system, powerful institutional factors will continue to make it difficult for prime ministers to exercise political leadership in a sustained and effective manner. Of course, Japan has never been renowned for having charismatic, strong political leaders. However, the challenges associated with political leadership are particularly worrying now because over the past quarter century, societal shifts, political reform, and voter expectations have elevated the profile of Japan’s prime minister, making the individual holding that post and the performance of that person increasingly conse- quential. Furthermore, in recent decades, the rise of summit diplomacy James Gannon is the executive director of the Japan Center for International Exchange (JCIE/USA), and Ryo Sahashi is an associate professor at Kanagawa University. 181 182 LOOKING FOR LEADERSHIP and advances in communications technology have expanded the diplo- matic role of heads of government.

  • Who Is Yoshihide Suga, Japan's Next Prime Minister?
    THE BROOKINGS INSTITUTION THE CURRENT: Who is Yoshihide Suga, Japan’s next prime minister? Tuesday, September 15, 2020 Host: Adrianna Pita, Office of Communications, Brookings Guest: Mireya Solís, Senior Fellow and Director, Center for East Asia Policy Studies, Philip Knight Chair in Japan Studies, Brookings (MUSIC) PITA: You’re listening to The Current, part of the Brookings Podcast Network. I’m your host, Adrianna Pita. After last month’s surprise resignation of Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, Japan’s Liberal Democratic Party has elected its Chief Cabinet Secretary, Yoshihide Suga, into leadership, all but assuring he will become the next prime minister following a parliamentary vote on Wednesday. With us again with some insight into what to expect from Mr. Suga’s leadership is Mireya Solis, director of our Center for East Asia Policy Studies and the Philip Knight Chair in Japan studies. Mireya, thanks for talking to us again. SOLÍS: It's wonderful to be here. Thank you, Adrianna. PITA: So, who is Mr. Suga, and what do we know about him? SOLÍS: Well, he has an interesting biography. I think I would start first by pointing out that he is a self-made man. It's a very important characteristic of Japan that political lineage matters a great deal. It is very common to have second-generation politicians who inherit the family name. That is not the case for Mr. Suga. He comes from Akita prefecture, rural Japan. His father had a strawberry farm and therefore he started in the political world without any connections, without any advantages, and he now has risen to the top.

  • Prime Minister Suga on Chinese Trade Threats, Olympic Moments
    ２０２１年８月１１日付、ニューズウィーク誌（米国）電子版 Exclusive: Prime Minister Suga on Chinese Trade Threats, Olympic Moments BY BILL POWELL ON 08/11/21 AT 5:00 AM EDT As the Olympics played out in Tokyo, Japan's Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga sat for a wide-ranging Zoom interview with Newsweek's Global Editor in Chief Nancy Cooper and Chief Washington Correspondent Bill Powell. Some excerpts: Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga AKIO KON/BLOOMBERG/GETTY On widespread Japanese opposition to holding the Games in the midst of the pandemic: There have been issues prior to the Games, but after the Olympics have started, many Japanese citizens have been very impressed and inspired by the power of sport with the great performances demonstrated by the athletes. Many people are viewing the Games and cheering the athletes on TV, and we're not hearing so many voices of opposition. On Japan's economic policy priorities going forward: Ever since I assumed the office of prime minister, deregulationhas been one of my highest priorities. We must advance deregulation, tearing down vested interests so that we can make a breakthrough to the next stage of growth. In order for the Japanese economy to lead growth, Green and Digital will have to be hand in hand. After I became prime minister I decided on the target of going carbon neutral by 2050. Global warming measures should not be a constraint on economic activity. We made a drastic change in our perspective, thinking that such measures could generate new investment in innovation. So what we have done is, we have put together our green growth strategy.

  • JAPAN: Suga's Cabinet Offers Bland Continuity but Honeymoon Is Still Likely
    Asia | September 16, 2020 JAPAN: Suga’s cabinet offers bland continuity but honeymoon is still likely ● Yoshihide Suga was officially selected as Japan’s prime minister by the Diet on Wednesday, 16 September. ● Suga’s cabinet retains ten members from its predecessor, but the new members contain few politicians who will raise excitement about the government. ● The new government will still enjoy healthy approval ratings, which could tempt Suga to call a snap election. In his first press conference Wednesday, Suga stressed that combating the Covid-19 pandemic and helping the economy recover its consequences after a historic contraction will be his top priorities, signaling that he wants an orderly transition from the Abe administration. However, while Suga will likely enjoy a honeymoon period at the outset of his government, he faces a challenging policy environment and the new cabinet lineup, announced on Wednesday, could contain some potential liabilities. The most notable feature of the new cabinet is personnel continuity. Half of the cabinet – ten of 20 ministers – are holdovers from the Abe cabinet, with new Chief Cabinet Secretary Katsunobu Kato and new Administrative Reform Minister Taro Kono moving over from the Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare (MHLW) and Ministry of Defense (MOD) respectively. Other notable holdovers included Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi, Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Taro Aso, Economy, Trade, and Industry Minister Hiroshi Kajiyama, Economic Revitalization Minister Yasutoshi Nishimura, and Environment Minister Shinjiro Koizumi. In other words, the top-tier posts – and the posts most relevant for managing the most urgent issues he faces – were mostly left unchanged.

    Number 536 | October 21, 2020 EastWestCenter.org/APB Measuring Shinzo Abe’s Impact on the Indo‐Pacific By Dr. John Hemmings Last month’s news that Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe was stepping down came like a thunderbolt from the blue. Once again, a health condion that had compelled him to step down in 2007, resurfaced. Whatever else one might say about Abe ‘the polician’ or Abe ‘the naonalist’, one cannot refute the fact that Abe the ‘grand strategist’ has had the most impact on Japan’s security posture since the Second World War. Of course, the queson will be how Yoshihide Suga ‐ his successor ‐ adjusts Japan's grand strategy in coming months before he calls an elecon. One thing is already obvious, Suga – and, indeed, the next generaon of future prime ministers – will have to live with Abe’s legacy in one form or another. Dr. John Hemmings, This is all a long way from 2007, when Abe’s one‐year premiership was already in the rear‐view mirror.

  • Japan's New Prime Minister
    Japan’s New Prime Minister drishtiias.com/printpdf/japan-s-new-prime-minister Why in News Japan recently elected Yoshihide Suga as its new Prime Minister. He belongs to the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) of Japan. Key Points Key Challenges Ahead: The new PM has to battle with the Covid-19 pandemic, rebuild the economy and also plan the Olympics scheduled to take place in Tokyo in 2021. Political System of Japan : Japan has a multi-party, bicameral, parliamentary, representative democratic constitutional monarchy. Constitution: It has a unitary model with supremacy of constitution. The Constitution of Japan is the fundamental law of Japan, enacted on 3 rd May 1947. It is one of the very few democratic constitutions in the world having fundamental duties, apart from India. 1/3 Government: The Government of Japan consists of a legislature, executive and judiciary. The Emperor is the Head of State and the Prime Minister is the Head of Government and the Head of the Cabinet (executive). The Emperor holds nominal ceremonial authority. For e.g. The legislature is known as the National Diet. Its members are directly elected by the people. The Diet has two houses- upper House of Representatives and lower House of Councillors. The Prime minister is designated by the National Diet but only the Emperor has the authority to appoint the Prime Minister. Feature Borrowed in Indian Constitution: The Indian Constitution derives its “Procedure established by Law” component from the Japanese constitution. The expression occurs in Article 21 (Right to Life and Personal Liberty). It means that law duly enacted by the legislature or the concerned body is valid only if the correct procedure has been followed to the letter.

We are writing to urge Japan to withdraw its opposition and to support the proposal currently on the table at the World Trade Organization (WTO) to waive certain TRIPS1 obligations for the prevention, treatment, and containment of COVID-19. The proposal was presented by India and South Africa on October 2, 2020. This proposal has gained the support and co-sponsorship of developing countries from around the world. The vast majority of developing countries as well as international organizations including the World Health Organization, the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS), UNITAID, and representatives of civil society, trade unions, human rights experts and academia have expressed their support for the proposed waiver.2 Since the start of the pandemic, the international community has expressed support for equitable and affordable access to vaccines, diagnostics, treatments, and other health technologies. Yet, more than a year into the pandemic, severe shortages of medical products including test kits, protective equipment, ventilators, therapeutics and medical devices persist in many countries, hampering prevention, treatment and containment of COVID-19.

  • 1 GR JAPAN Update on the Appointment of Prime Minister Suga
    GR JAPAN Update on the appointment of Prime Minister Suga and the Suga Cabinet 17 September 2020 Executive Summary • As expected, Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga easily won the election for leadership of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) on 14 September, taking over 70% of the vote. His premiership was cemented by the formal votes in the Diet on 16 September, where Suga received 314 of 465 votes in the House of Representatives and 142 of 245 in the House of Councillors. • After serving as Prime Minister Abe’s right hand as Chief Cabinet Secretary for nearly eight years, Suga is expected to be a “continuity” Prime Minister who will carry forward very similar policies, but he is seen as less of an ideologue and more focused on practical reforms. • The decisiveness of his victory gives Suga a solid platform within the party, helping him to push ahead with his own agenda and limiting internal dissent. • Suga’s Cabinet appointments reflect his commitment to continuity on the whole, with strategic appointments to further his plans for reform. • Policy priorities will focus on domestic issues, primarily economic recovery and Covid-19 pandemic mitigation, but the new Cabinet will also face tough diplomatic challenges. • Suga has indicated that he will continue Abe’s efforts to place a strengthened US- Japan alliance at the centre of Japan’s foreign policy, but also that he wants to achieve “balanced” relations with China. Yoshihide Suga as party leader As the new prime minister, Suga is stressing political continuity, but also talking about his commitment to administrative and regulatory reform as key priorities for his government.
