Join the new world

As many people in Japan is already quite aware about, The Party President election is fast approaching upon us. In just three days, we will be having an election to see the next leader of the Parties within Japan. Thus being curious as I was, I was inspired by past examples of others, to take my time to learn more about the candidates who were destined to have great impact within Japan for next month. Thus, I naturally walked out of my quiet home in Fukuoka to try to contact three of the candidates, who will most likely be very influential, figure within Japan. I dispatched a simple plead to Ice_Freeze, a possible future leader of JLP, Tadahito Kato, Future leader of UBJ, and finally Osamu Nakamura, Next leader of NPJ, to let me hear and learn more about them. They were all quite generous enough to share some of their plans, and ideas to me, and to rest of the Japan.


First person who I was able to reach was Ice_Freeze. He had recently joined JLP, and will most likely become their leader to lead them next month. He seems to have much unreleased plans and Ideas, he plans to release in future. So I took my quickly hurried myself to Tohoku, where Ice_Freeze currently lives to personally ask him my questions.

1) What do you plan to accomplish by achieving the position of the Party President?

Ice_Freeze:
By becoming Party President I have achieved the goal of hope, hope for the workers of all of Japan.

2) What new ideas, manifests, plans, or goals for the party do you have once you are the Party President?

Ice_Freeze:
The world will soon know. All I can say right now is that there WILL BE CHANGES, and that we hope to thrive with them, and make is a REAL worker's party.

3) With continual NAP growth, with domination of Japanese politics and mass, and TFC’s extreme inner forum activity with influential figures, and new rise of active and aggressive ISP; what are you planning with your Party once you are Party president? Will you be forming Coalition and/or taking side with any of the top party listed? Or will you plan to form an opposition to bring diversity to Japanese politics?

Ice_Freeze:
I am happy for the ISP, let it not be forgotten I left the ISP to help the JLP. I wish the best for Tohru, who I am close with, and glad the King B is there to help. They seem like an equally median between NAP and the rest. As far as TFC we have reason to believe they are "bad mouthing" the JLP (and some others) in lasting hopes to gain some members.

4) How do you hope your new party to shape up once you become the Party president? Will there be a name change, Change to any political orientation?

Ice_Freeze:
Sadly, no Answer was given.

5) With current political system, only the top five parties can run for president or for congress. The current party membership of other party, besides NAP and Orange, is quite even. How do you plan to continue to stay in Japanese politics in future, and how do you hope to strengthen your party?

Ice_Freeze:
Once again I won't say much we will have to see won't we 🙂 But I plan to make some historic moves here, and have a lot of fun with this!

6) What do you think of current political atmosphere of Japan? Is it acceptable, or is there something big that is wrong with it?

Ice_Freeze:
I think the current political atmosphere of Japan is not very good. You guys know how I think and I will be writing an article shortly.

7) Who is your two most influential political figure in real world (or in erepublik if you want to) who you admire, and look up to? How did they affect you as politician in eJapan?

Ice_Freeze:
My favorite Presidents are probably Andrew Jackson, and Thomas Jefferson.

Akki: Thank you very much Mr. Ice_Freeze.




Soon after I was done interviewing Ice_Freeze, I got message from Tadahito Kato that he had some free time to answer some of my questions. Tadahito Kato is definitely going to be person to look out for in next month. He has great central ideas which guides him, and have plan to completely create new party to bring New Leftist idea into Japanese politics. Thus, I again, hurried to the other side of Japan, Hokkaido to visit and interview him on person.

1) What do you plan to accomplish by achieving the position of the Party President?

Tadahito Kato:
Once elected, I plan to create the Liberal Party of Japan and build it into eJapan's largest center-left party. Right now, eJapan is dominated by center-right parties.

2) What new ideas, manifests, plans, or goals for the party do you have once you are the Party President?

Tadahito Kato:
There are no exact plans as of yet, because I still need to talk to members of the party. However, I believe the party will be pushing for a welfare state stressing national unity, social welfare, and cultural identity.

3) With continual NAP growth, with domination of Japanese politics and mass, and TFC’s extreme inner forum activity with influential figures, and new rise of active and aggressive ISP; what are you planning with your Party once you are Party president? Will you be forming Coalition and/or taking side with any of the top party listed? Or will you plan to form an opposition to bring diversity to Japanese politics?

Tadahito Kato:
I have not planned to form a coalition with any of the parties listed. However, I do believe the political diversity is crucial for national unity, however paradoxical it sounds.

4) How do you hope your new party to shape up once you become the Party president? Will there be a name change, Change to any political orientation?

Tadahito Kato:
As I have written in many of my articles, the Liberal Party of Japan will not be a renamed version of the United Bushi of Nihon. It will be a center-left party with a clear direction and I have made my plans clear so people who oppose them can resign and people who are interested can join.

5) With current political system, only the top five parties can run for president or for congress. The current party membership of other party, besides NAP and Orange, is quite even. How do you plan to continue to stay in Japanese politics in future, and how do you hope to strengthen your party?

Tadahito Kato:
If my party is popular enough, it will be a major party. If not, then it is probably not suited for eJapan. I will let democracy decide everything and will also try my best to attract citizens.

6) What do you think of current political atmosphere of Japan? Is it acceptable, or is there something big that is wrong with it?

Tadahito Kato:
There are many political limitations in eRepublik. Under these limitations, I think most politicians are generally doing well.

7) Who is your two most influential political figure in real world (or in erepublik if you want to) who you admire, and look up to? How did they affect you as politician in eJapan?

Tadahito Kato:
My two favorite political figures are both American: Frederick Douglass and Franklin D. Roosevelt. Douglass was a self-made man who bought his own freedom, became educated, and won rights for former slaves. I admire his courage as well as many of his ideas. Roosevelt is famous for his economic plans and his role in World War II. The economic platform of the Liberal Party is largely based on his Keynesian policies.

Akki: Thank you very much Mr. Tadahito Kato.




As I headed back to my home in Fukuoka, happy with today’s result of being able to contact two of my three intended people I ought to interview, a surprise hit me without warning. I got a message from Osamu Nakamura from Jeju in Korean peninsula that he had time to answer question.

Akki: Thank you very much Mr. Osamu Nakamura.


All three of them seems as though they are ready to guide their own party into success. I wish them all a good luck and I hope this was informative, and helped people of Japan understand much better about each of the possible new party leaders of those parties. You may want to contact them personally if you found any of them to be your leader and something they are trying to accomplish is right for you. May our democratic practice do its job on the 5th, and I hope all of the people running for Party Presidency are successful, and have a great month.
