Japanese PM-to-be: Catholic!
September 25, 2008
Sounds like an interesting guy
.
Members of Japan’s ruling party have selected a bluff conservative, Taro Aso, as their new leader, meaning he is almost certain to become the next PM.
Mr Aso advocates greater public spending to promote the economy, and an assertive foreign policy.
He overwhelmed his four Liberal Democratic Party rivals for the party leadership in a crowded race.
He apparently is also a huge fan of comic books.
