New leader to be named on Sept. 26
The main ruling and opposition parties agreed Thursday to pick the successor to Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi in an extra Diet session on Sept. 26, lawmakers said.
The Diet is expected to tap Chief Cabinet Secretary Shinzo Abe as the new prime minister, since he is widely expected to be elected president of the Liberal Democratic Party on Sept. 20.
...According to the agreement, on the day the extra session convenes, both chambers will hold separate elections in the afternoon to select the next prime minister.
The Lower House's pick will prevail if the results between the two chambers differ.
Abe earlier vowed that he would try to get the Diet to enact bills in the session to revise Japan's postwar basic education law and to upgrade the Defense Agency into a ministry.
Anyway everyone knows the winner of the race: Mr.Abe. What the policies which he should promote are will be mentioned later.
