\nUPDATES ON TWITTER: arudoudebito<\/p>\n

Hi Blog. \u00a0Well done on TPR for getting this information out. \u00a0Have a read. \u00a0Get to know your government, because this one might be the one which is more attentive to the needs of the NJ communities. \u00a0Regardless of bent, I myself have had the Cabinet and all their backgrounds posted on the wall of my loo, like I have had for every Cabinet since Koizumi 2003. \u00a0Arudou Debito in Sapporo<\/p>\n

As expected, Yukio Hatoyama officially became Japan\u2019s 93rd Prime Minister yesterday and just the second since the long-ruling Liberal Democratic Party was founded not to belong to it. Just as importantly, after roughly two weeks of managing to keep the press at bay and leaking little, if anything about the make-up of the new Cabinet, the new Prime Minister formed the first Cabinet since 1955 to contain no LDP members.<\/em><\/p>\n

In fact, as promised, the new Cabinet is made up entirely of elected representatives. Every portfolio went to a DPJ member, with only two positions going to the DPJ\u2019s partners: State Minister in Charge of Consumer Affairs and the Declining Birthrate to SDP head Mizuho Fukushima and State Minister in Charge of Financial and Postal Issues to People\u2019s New Party chief Shizuka Kamei.<\/em><\/p>\n

So, without further ado, the Cabinet:<\/em><\/p>\n

Yukio Hatoyama, Prime Minister…<\/strong><\/p>\n
