| Japan's new round of musical 
chairs 
  Ichiro Ozawa, known as "The 
Destroyer" for his record in Japanese politics, aims to take over leadership of 
the ruling party from Prime Minister Naoto Kan. If Ozawa succeeds, Japan will 
have its third premier in a year. Debate rages on if change at the top can stop 
the economic rot, but the nation is focused on a race where "one poison drives 
out another". - Kosuke Takahashi (Aug 27, '10) |
