Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has dissolved the lower house of Japan′s parliament, paving the way for snap elections next month.
The move is raising questions over whether the shakeup will secure public support for Abe′s long-term economic reforms.
Our Ji Myung-kil sheds light on the answer.
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe hopes his decision to dissolve the lower house of parliament and call snap elections next month ultimately gives him a fresh mandate to push through reforms, as his signature economic policies dubbed "Abenomics" struggle to revive Japan′s ailing economy.
A controversial sales tax increase lies at the center of the issue.
The first hike in April, from 5 to 8 percent,... was meant to curb public debt, but instead made Japanese consumers tighten their wallets.
That has been blamed in part for dismal third quarter economic figures, when gross domestic product shrank 1-point-6 percent on-year,... pushing the Japanese economy into recession.
A second sales tax increase to 10 percent was scheduled for October next year, but Abe is now hoping to delay it.
Advocates say the tax hike is needed to fund social security costs for a fast aging population.
But while the Japanese public is largely opposed to the tax increase, they are also confused about Prime Minister Abe′s tactics.
According to a survey conducted by the Asahi Shimbun,... some 62 percent did not understand why Abe had suddenly dissolved parliament.
Some 65 percent said it was inappropriate for Abe to use a snap election as a barometer of sentiment toward a second sales tax hike.
Over the election campaign period, Abe is expected to explain his government′s growth strategy and ask that people support for his Liberal Democratic Party.
Abe says he will resign if his party fails to secure a majority in the lower house of parliament in the December 14th snap elections, but despite waning public approval ratings, the LDP is widely expected to win.

브라질 호세프 대통령 탄핵 하원 통과, 상원서 최종결론
Brazilian president Dilma Roussef was defeated in the lower house as it voted in favor of her impeachment. With the country divided between opponents and supporters of the president, the final decision rests with the senate.
Our Bruce Harrison reports.
With 367 votes, or more than a two-thirds majority, Brazil's lower house has brought President Dilma Roussef one step closer to impeachment over charges of manipulating government accounts.
"I bring with me our history of struggle for freedom and democracy. That is why I say to the country, 'yes' for the future."
Meanwhile, Roussef's supporters made their last attempts to halt the impeachment against the president, who has not been personally charged with corruption.
"The coup has won in the lower house, but the fight has not ended. We believe the Senate will eliminate the attempts of the people involved in the coup."
The attorney general for the president said he was looking forward to showing evidence at the Senate... something that was not part of the house proceedings.
"It will be different in the Senate. In the Senate, we can present evidence. There will be a trial. It will be within what the law prescribes."
If the Senate votes by a majority... Roussef will have to step down for 180 days to defend herself in a trial.
But, pro-impeachment demonstrators cheered in the streets.
"It's the birth of a new Brazil, a Brazil marked by full democracy, by respect for judicial power, for our laws. Everything that is to come will be better."
According to opinion polls, more than 60 percent of Brazilians support the impeachment.
The impeachment battle comes during Brazil's worst recession since the 1930s, and it has divided the country just months ahead of hosting this year's summer Olympic Games.

A lower house is one of two chambers of a bicameral legislature, the other chamber being the upper house.
Despite its official position "below" the upper house, in many legislatures worldwide the lower house has come to wield more power. The supremacy of the lower house usually arises from special restrictions placed (either explicitly by legislation or implicitly by convention) on the powers of the upper house, which often can only delay rather than veto legislation or has less control over money bills.
Under parliamentary systems it is usually the lower house alone that designates the head of government or prime minister, and may remove them through a vote of no confidence. There are exceptions to this however, such as the Prime Minister of Japan, who is formally selected with the approval of both houses of the Diet. A legislature composed of only one house is described as unicameral.
In comparison with the upper house, lower houses frequently display certain characteristics:
Many lower houses are named in the following manner: House/Chamber of Representatives/the People/Commons/Deputies.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has dissolved the lower house of Japan′s parliament, paving the way for snap elections next month.
The move is raising questions over whether the shakeup will secure public support for Abe′s long-term economic reforms.
Our Ji Myung-kil sheds light on the answer.
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe hopes his decision to dissolve the lower house of parliament and call snap elections next month ultimately gives him a fresh mandate to push through reforms, as his signature economic policies dubbed "Abenomics" struggle to revive Japan′s ailing economy.
A controversial sales tax increase lies at the center of the issue.
The first hike in April, from 5 to 8 percent,... was meant to curb public debt, but instead made Japanese consumers tighten their wallets.
That has been blamed in part for dismal third quarter economic figures, when gross domestic product shrank 1-point-6 percent on-year,... pushing the Japanese economy into recession.
A second sales tax increase to 10 percent was scheduled for October next year, but Abe is now hoping to delay it.
Advocates say the tax hike is needed to fund social security costs for a fast aging population.
But while the Japanese public is largely opposed to the tax increase, they are also confused about Prime Minister Abe′s tactics.
According to a survey conducted by the Asahi Shimbun,... some 62 percent did not understand why Abe had suddenly dissolved parliament.
Some 65 percent said it was inappropriate for Abe to use a snap election as a barometer of sentiment toward a second sales tax hike.
Over the election campaign period, Abe is expected to explain his government′s growth strategy and ask that people support for his Liberal Democratic Party.
Abe says he will resign if his party fails to secure a majority in the lower house of parliament in the December 14th snap elections, but despite waning public approval ratings, the LDP is widely expected to win.

브라질 호세프 대통령 탄핵 하원 통과, 상원서 최종결론
Brazilian president Dilma Roussef was defeated in the lower house as it voted in favor of her impeachment. With the country divided between opponents and supporters of the president, the final decision rests with the senate.
Our Bruce Harrison reports.
With 367 votes, or more than a two-thirds majority, Brazil's lower house has brought President Dilma Roussef one step closer to impeachment over charges of manipulating government accounts.
"I bring with me our history of struggle for freedom and democracy. That is why I say to the country, 'yes' for the future."
Meanwhile, Roussef's supporters made their last attempts to halt the impeachment against the president, who has not been personally charged with corruption.
"The coup has won in the lower house, but the fight has not ended. We believe the Senate will eliminate the attempts of the people involved in the coup."
The attorney general for the president said he was looking forward to showing evidence at the Senate... something that was not part of the house proceedings.
"It will be different in the Senate. In the Senate, we can present evidence. There will be a trial. It will be within what the law prescribes."
If the Senate votes by a majority... Roussef will have to step down for 180 days to defend herself in a trial.
But, pro-impeachment demonstrators cheered in the streets.
"It's the birth of a new Brazil, a Brazil marked by full democracy, by respect for judicial power, for our laws. Everything that is to come will be better."
According to opinion polls, more than 60 percent of Brazilians support the impeachment.
The impeachment battle comes during Brazil's worst recession since the 1930s, and it has divided the country just months ahead of hosting this year's summer Olympic Games.

브라질 호세프 대통령 탄핵 하원 통과, 상원서 최종결론
Brazilian president Dilma Roussef was defeated in the lower house as it voted in favor of her impeachment. With the country divided between opponents and supporters of the president, the final decision rests with the senate.
Our Bruce Harrison reports.
With 367 votes, or more than a two-thirds majority, Brazil's lower house has brought President Dilma Roussef one step closer to impeachment over charges of manipulating government accounts.
"I bring with me our history of struggle for freedom and democracy. That is why I say to the country, 'yes' for the future."
Meanwhile, Roussef's supporters made their last attempts to halt the impeachment against the president, who has not been personally charged with corruption.
"The coup has won in the lower house, but the fight has not ended. We believe the Senate will eliminate the attempts of the people involved in the coup."
The attorney general for the president said he was looking forward to showing evidence at the Senate... something that was not part of the house proceedings.
"It will be different in the Senate. In the Senate, we can present evidence. There will be a trial. It will be within what the law prescribes."
If the Senate votes by a majority... Roussef will have to step down for 180 days to defend herself in a trial.

Once Beloved

Nomad Woman

Only Passing Through
Once Beloved
Verse 1
Everybody, and the way they look at me
Like I'm some kind of rebel
What do they know about my life
And the world I'm living
You know that people, are allowed their freedom, and identity
Don't let 'em tie you to the railings of conformity
Chorus
Rise up from the ways
(Rise up from the ways)
To a higher place
(To a higher place)
See the skies above
(See the skies above)
What was once beloved!
Verse 2
Take me to the angels, see what the good book says
Take me to the farmers, for the good lands sake
Take me to the land where a woman can be who she can
Is there anything left to die for
Prophets and Martyrs, I heard IT ALL BEFORE
IS there anything left to believe in anymore?
Chorus
Verse 3
In the city, the melody can get so low
In the city, the people seem to walk so slow
Just remember, there's a place inside, we all need to go
Chorus
Adlib
(Take me to a higher place)
