Japan Gets New Government


Tokyo wakes up to a new political reality after a general election that is expected to see the ruling coalition government losing power for the first time in 50 years.

Sunday's victory by Democratic Party of Japan ends a half-century of almost unbroken rule by the Liberal Democratic Party and breaks a deadlock in parliament, ushering in a government that has promised to focus spending on consumers, cut wasteful budget outlays and reduce the power of bureaucrats.

And how this affect me? Yen gets stronger and I haven't changed any RM to Yen yet! Argh!!!
