JAPAN: Komeito’s exit from the ruling coalition has added more uncertainty to Japan’s political scene, with focus now shifting to the prime minister selection vote that is set to happen in the Diet next week. Koichi, the new president of the Liberal Democratic Party, is aiming for the top position, and the result will rely on changing alliances and last-minute talks between competing parties. With only a few days left before the Diet meets, the political situation is still changing, but it seems like things are leaning towards Koichi. However, the final result will depend on whether he can gain Ishin’s formal backing and gather enough votes to take Japan’s highest political role.
- Lord, we pray that God grants wisdom to the leaders and party members involved in the selection process, enabling them to make decisions that uphold justice and the well-being of the nation (The Holy Bible, Micah 4:3).
- Lord, we pray for unity among the political parties and for the leaders to work together for the common good, fostering collaboration that benefits the people of Japan (The Holy Bible, Acts 17:26).
