Japanese PM Yoshihide Suga, man of political sincerity

 Japanese PM Yoshihide Suga, man of political sincerity

That is how the senior political leaders of so-called big political parties should have done and should do in future the way the Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga has done saying that he would step down, setting the stage for a new premier after a one-year tenure marred by an unpopular COVID-19 response and rapidly dwindling public support.


Suga, who took over after Shinzo Abe resigned last September, citing ill health, has seen his support ratings sink to below 30% as the nation struggles with its worst wave of COVID-19 infections ahead of a general election this year.

Suga's decision on Friday not to run in a ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) election in September means the party will choose a new leader, who will become prime minister.

Do our senior leaders have the sense of responsibility of sincerely serving the nation and the people and feeling of resigning on the other hand from PM’s position if failed to perform, the way Japan’s current PM Suga responsibly decided to step down realizing his failure in properly handling the COVID-19 pandemic and rapidly dwindling public support.

The current PM Deuba has not been able to give a full-fledged cabinet even after almost 2 months in the highest political helm. Is he going to take any moral responsibility for his failure to perform as expected by the people?
