On the 8th, NHK reported that the Japanese government has decided to hold a commission this fall for former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, who was shot and killed during a campaign to support the House of Representatives elections on the 8th.
According to NHK, the Japanese government has decided to appoint the head of state for former Prime Minister Abe because of his eight years and eight months of tenure as a prime minister, the longest tenure as a prime minister, and great achievements in the field of foreign affairs and security centered on the reconstruction of the Japanese economy and the US-Japan relationship.
It is the second time after World War II that the funeral of a former prime minister has been held as a funeral director in Japan after former Prime Minister Yoshida.
