POLITICAL PULSE / Premier sees postal reform as historic opportunity for LDP
Yoshio Okubo
Yomiuri
"Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi feels that he will have achieved a historic mission if he successfully privatizes the postal services," according to a close aide who spoke to me shortly after the House of Councillors election in July.
The way his aides see it, Koizumi wants little more than to complete postal privatization, and after that will let the young generation build a new Liberal Democratic Party.
Monday's reshuffle of the Cabinet and the LDP leadership, and the lineup of his teams for that matter, reflected such sentiments.
