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.
