Takaichi's Troubled Tenure: Japan's PM Faces Unprecedented Low Approval Ratings The approval ratings for Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's government have plummeted below 50% in a recent poll, marking the first time this has happened under her leadership.
This milestone reflects widespread disappointment with her policies among various age groups. Voters aged 60 and above have been particularly disenchanted, with their support for Takaichi's government dropping from 63.
7% in June to 39. 9%. This decline suggests that the prime minister's efforts to connect with younger generations may not be translating into sustained popularity across age groups.
