general election

I have never abstained from any voting so far since I was given voting right. However, it seemed nothing changed at all, no matter who or which party I voted for.

But this time I'm excited at the Sept. 11 Lower House election. This election is easy to understand and I feel as if it were a direct election, national referendum.

Who will come into power? Koizumi or Okada?

Prime minister Koizumi says the postal privatization will lead to other structural reforms. Okada, the representative of the Democratic Party, says this is a chance for them to come into power and change Japan.

Main issues are the postal privatization, pension reform, fiscal reconstruction, foreign relations and the declining birthrate and ageing population.

Let's go to the polls and make a choice.
