About this listen
In this episode of Japan Edge, we dive into the aftermath of the Tokyo Gubernatorial Election.
While the re-election of Yuriko Koike may not have been a surprise, the unexpected rise of independent candidate Shinji Ishimaru has sparked discussions about the future of Japanese politics.
We’ll explore the impact of social media on voter mobilization, which supported Ishimaru's rise, and the enduring influence of special interest groups under the long-standing rule of the LDP, which allowed Koike and the LDP to maintain the status quo.
Join us as we unpack the key takeaways from this election, balancing hope for political engagement with the challenges posed by entrenched power structures.
