Fumio Kishida re-elected as Prime Minister of Japan

Fumio Kishida was re-elected as Japan’s prime minister by parliament after the ruling coalition won the general election last month, with his government making a fresh start to the work of reviving the coronavirus-hit economy and reducing income disparities. Fumio Kishida succeeded Yoshihide Suga who resigned as PM of Japan in September 2021.

Elected just over a month ago by parliament, Kishida called a quick election in which his governing party secured 261 seats in the 465-member lower house — the more powerful of Japan’s two-chamber legislature — enough to maintain a free hand in pushing legislation through parliament.
