Therefore, I wanted to make a general thread for politics in Japan, where we can talk about topics such as social issues, reform on economics, approval of politicians, scandals, international relations, elections and more. We can also talk about how to break the LDP's dominance in Japanese politics, opposition to LDP and conservatism in Japan, and more.
I want to start with two things. First, news: Monday was Suga PM's first appearance in front of Diet (Japanese parliament) and he laid out policy on climate, corona, and diplomacy especially with Korea and China. I am curious as to his approach on historical revisionism and his attempts to engage with China/Korea especially.

Secondly, I think it would be fun for us to choose a name for this thread:
Fuso (扶桑), an ancient name of Japan
Yamato (大和), another name for Japan and Japanese people
Hinomoto (日の本), an alternative reading of "日本" (Nihon)
LDP Land, since the LDP is the ruling party by far
Suga's Playland, after the current PM

Japan is not kind to socialists, unfortunately.
His Japanese nationalism was too based.
Compare to Yamaguchi: "They emphasized the need for solidarity with the United States and South Korea in the fight against communism. Their propaganda vans were decorated with the Stars and Stripes alongside the Japanese flag, and Akao once stated that Liancourt Rocks (Dokdo/Takeshima) should be blown up as it represents an obstacle to friendship with South Korea. A former party member, Otoya Yamaguchi, was responsible for the 1960 assassination of Inejiro Asanuma, the head of the Japanese Socialist Party, at a televised rally."

Asia always has a feud with other Asians. I think it is one of the laws of the universe.
On the name how about LDP Fun Land Or Suga's LDP Land, as I find them both quite hilarious. (LDP Land and Suga's Playland)

Well, it wasn't really always that way. There used to be a time when all the surrounding countries paid tribute to the Chinese emperor. Well, Japan mostly maintained its independence, but they were still pretty strongly influenced by Chinese culture.

You might want to change the name of the anthem, right now it's not the Japanese name.
Anyways, back on topic: what reforms can we expect from PM Suga during their administration, if any?
Yea, I know haven't been writing on it yet so some stuff is just a placeholder copy-paste from the archives.
Anyway:
I don't know I think Suga might be a less hardliner than Abe. But honestly, I think he will stick to the path that has been laid out by Abe's administration. It is also near certain he will continue abenomics and the constitutional reforms(Which in all honesty I do not completely oppose).
I think it is too early to call what route he will be taking although his stance on zero emissions and such was quite a surprise, yet it will also mean Japan will have to either increase or modernize its nuclear power plants.
