Taro Aso, the newly elected LDP president, expressed his concerns for the current situation in Japan.

"With all the problems facing the people, problems making ends meet, uncertainty about the future, the challenge of defending national security, I am thinking, Who in the political world, apart from us, is up to facing these challenges and delivering results?"
