On the 16th, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida met with LDP Organization and Campaign Headquarters Chief Yasunori Kaneko at the Prime Minister’s Office. During the meeting, he instructed Kaneko to work on regaining trust and increasing party membership, in light of the fact that the number of party members decreased by over 30,000 in 2023.
As of December 2023, the party membership stood at 1,091,075, a decrease of 33,688 compared to the previous year. One of the main reasons for this decline is believed to be the factional political funding scandal that came to light in December last year.
