Japan's new round of musical
chairs
Ichiro Ozawa, known as "The
Destroyer" for his record in Japanese politics, aims to take over leadership of
the ruling party from Prime Minister Naoto Kan. If Ozawa succeeds, Japan will
have its third premier in a year. Debate rages on if change at the top can stop
the economic rot, but the nation is focused on a race where "one poison drives
out another". - Kosuke Takahashi (Aug 27, '10) |
