Sana Takichi won the leadership of the Japanese ruling party on Saturday, and pushed her forward to become the country’s first female Prime Minister.
The 64 -year -old, whose hero is Margaret Thatcher, has been accused of restoring the sick Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) as a new anti -immigration grouping.
Arch Conservatives almost certainly approved the Parliament as the fifth Prime Minister of Japan, a step that local media says can come in the week of October 13.
She was elected president of the LDP on Saturday after winning the run -off vote against the telegonic, but after getting a vote against former Prime Minister’s son, Shinjiro Quizomi.
The 44 -year -old Kozumi became the youngest prime minister of Japan in the modern era and represents a generation of changes for the LDP.
After Japan’s emergency phone number, named “Mr. 119”, after being knocked with two other candidates, the two fled after moderate Yoshima Hiashi.
Takchi is now facing many complex problems, including the old population, geographical political turmoil, a poor economy and growing anxiety about immigration.
However, first, it has to make sure that the LDP, which has ruled at almost NNN stop since 1955, can re -rally to voters.
“The LDP has to regain confidence, and we need a revision to start a fresh,” Kozumi said in the campaign, calling the party’s state an “crisis”.
Immigrants ‘invaders’
The outgoing premiere Shigero Asba took over last year, but his LDP -led coalition lost a majority in both houses of parliament and threw it into the towel.
One party on UP is Sansito, which echoes other patriotic movements in calling immigration “silent attacks” and blames newcomers for many.
In the LDP campaign, Takachi and Kozumi tried to appeal to voters attracted by Sansito’s messaging about foreigners, whether they were immigrants or a tourist crowd.
Japan should “revise the policies that would be fully allowed in people with different cultures and backgrounds,” Takichi said.
Kozumi added: “Illegal employment of foreigners and the deterioration of public safety causes problems for the locals.”
Such a danger by mainstream politicians is very low in Japan, where people born abroad make only three percent of the population.
“I think tolerance towards foreigners is weakening,” Kemico Tamura, 66, told AFP in Kavaguchi, one of the most popular cities in Japan.
Nevertheless, 33 -year -old Nigivian Tho Hoong, who came from Vietnam 14 years ago, said, “It is difficult to learn differences in culture … but Japan is a good place to stay”.

On the economy, Takichi has supported aggressive financial relaxation and major financial costs in the past, and has echoed his mentor, former Premier Shinzo Abe.
But he angered his stance in connection with the election campaign, and the regular meeting of the Yasoconi war shrine has also made China more moderate.
Coming from the LDP traditional wing, the women who are leading Japan can soon be disappointed.
“Takichi has no interest in women’s rights or gender equality policies,” said Yuki Sosji, a professor of politics and gender at Tokai University.
Experts feared that for all its charisma and modern image – he lacked maternity leave and surf – lacking in depth in Kozumi and could be responsible with voters.
Kozumi “It is good to show how he is reformist, but he is not very good in debate, so I am surprised how long his popularity will be maintained after the opening of Parliament,” Professor Emirates of Tokyo University told AFP.
