Noda's new Cabinet inclusive, fresh-faced

Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda formed his Cabinet on Sept. 2, handing key posts to ministerial rookies, including Osamu Fujimura as chief Cabinet secretary and Jun Azumi as finance minister, and including supporters of Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) heavyweight Ichiro Ozawa in an attempt to reunite the party.

In a bid to restore unity in the ruling party, which is split into pro- and anti-Ozawa camps, Noda picked lawmakers close to Ozawa, including former DPJ Diet affairs chief Kenji Yamaoka and Yasuo Ichikawa, chief of the Upper House policy board. Yamaoka was named chairman of the National Public Safety Commission, while Ichikawa was appointed defense minister. (Kyodo News)
