Mr. Mimura, Chairman of the Japan Chamber of Commerce and Industry, said, "The fact that the Liberal Democratic Party was able to obtain an absolutely stable majority on its own is a voter for the stable steering of national affairs that has been achieved in the unprecedented difficult situation of Corona, despite various issues. It is a sign of the evaluation of the company and expectations for new growth. "
On that basis, "In future policy management, first of all, we will promptly and decisively proceed with the process of exit strategy that can balance current corona measures and socio-economic activities at a higher level, while clarifying the means and time axis. Also, now that economic activity is gradually starting to move toward normalization but is still in a difficult situation, it is necessary to formulate a national strategy with an eye on the future of Corona. Especially, strengthening the growth potential of small and medium-sized enterprises and the regional economy. I want you to face the virtuous circle of the world with a stronger will than ever before. "
