Kishida to be named FM

INCOMING Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe will appoint lower house lawmaker Fumio Kishida as foreign minister, Kyodo news agency reported yesterday.

The government is seeking to balance a bolder diplomatic stance with the need to repair ties with China and South Korea.

Kishida, 55, served as a state minister in charge of Okinawa-related issues in Abe's first Cabinet and once worked at the now-defunct Long-Term Credit Bank of Japan.
