Senior LDP official points to Abe-era lessons for Takaichi
Party heavyweight Koichi Hagiuda says the prime minister's administration lacks the discipline that characterized her political mentor's approach.
Senior LDP official Koichi Hagiuda is cautioning Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi that her administration lacks the discipline seen during her predecessor Shinzo Abe's tenure. Despite Takaichi successfully pushing through all 64 government-backed bills in the most recent parliamentary session, her team has faced issues managing the political process.
This has led to protracted stalemates and growing discontent both externally and internally within the ruling Liberal Democratic Party. Hagiuda attributes these difficulties to coordination shortcomings.
