After PM Abe’s resignation, I wonder who will be Japan’s new prime minister. But one thing’s for sure. It wouldn’t be an easy year for whoever will take over.
ex PM considered himself as a person who not able to continue due to sickness , it sounds not regular and general ,
And he was actually the most successful PM of Japan till date. God bless the world.
Abe resigned? How did I miss this.
I guess there’s more to it. Not much information on the sickness has been disclosed, but he visited the hospital twice and deemed himself unfit to lead the country. He said that he didn’t want the Japanese people to worry about his health and how this would affect his leadership.
Interesting! Looks like there are already 3 qualified people running for the position. I guess for now we just have to see how everything unfolds.
I don’t really know much about other PMs of Japan so But I think he was certainly a good leader. His government also had a good relationship with my country and I hope his successor also values this relationship.
That’s unexpected of you! Haha. But yeah, it’s been over a week since his resignation.
Truth be told, Japan switches its prime ministers like a person switches their socks, at some point I just stopped keeping track altogether, haha.
Really? Haha. I didn’t know about that probably because Abe has been the prime minister ever since I started to care. Hahaha.
If you check the past 20 years things become a bit more clear. I’ve been following the news for a little less than that, at some point I gave up.
Yoshihide Suga has become Japan’s Prime Minister. He was serving as Abe’s Chief Cabinet Secretary and head Government Spokesperson.
Oh yeahhh! Haha. I just checked it out and there were even some PMs who served for just a little over a year? That’s interesting. I might need to do some more reading to know why.
Yeah. Taking over during this pandemic is definitely challenging.
Yes. That was about when I stopped following who was taking the position.
