がんばれ麻生太郎とFTは言う

　⇒FT.com / Comment / Editorial - Not time to pause

Taro Aso, the prime minister, had trouble getting budgets through the Diet earlier in the year because of his weak position in the governing coalition. He seems to have done enough to quell this parliamentary mutiny, delaying the need for an election. Japan’s political paralysis has, for the time being, cleared up. But Mr Aso must now be brave and use his authority to push through the stimulus measures he has proposed. Japan can ill afford to wait.
