Japan’s Prime Minister Fumio Kishida called for a discussion of economic measures next month after ordering the ruling party to present an outline of gasoline and other fuel price relief measures by the end of August.
“This summer I have heard the voices of various people who have been suffering as a result of rising gasoline and other fuel prices,” Kishida told reporters Tuesday. “We’ll first thoroughly consider measures for that this month, and then thoroughly discuss overall economic measures next month.”
Introducing new economic measures to limit the impact of high prices on consumers may help prop up Kishida’s slipping support rate, though it will also add to the premier’s funding difficulties as he still look for ways to pay for childcare measures and expanded defense spending.
