JAPAN: PM reshuffles cabinet to win back support
Updated
Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has reshuffled his cabinet in an effort to claw back some credibility with the public. Voters dealt Mr Abe's Liberal Democratic Party a powerful rebuke during elections last month after a series of ministerial scandals and resignations. He now faces an Opposition-controlled Upper House as the Parliament gears up to consider key pieces of legislation.
Presenter: Karon Snowdon
