Reform or else...

Article Abstract:

Both the Liberal Democratic Party's loss of a majority in the Jul 18, 1993, election and the low voter turnout of 67.3% signal a period of change in Japanese politics. Three new conservative-reformist parties emerged, and there is no certainty about the role that each will play in forming a coalition government. The selection of the leader of the new government is also undecided.
