Financial Times: Shinzo Abe faces rising disenchantment in Japan Shinzo Abe has spent much of his premiership trumpeting his achievements to foreigners, particularly those of Abenomics, his programme to kick-start the Japanese economy. But discontent is stirring at home. Opinion surveys conducted this month by Japan’s major newspapers show Mr Abe’s support ratings have fallen below 50 per cent for the first time, while the number of people who say they disapprove of his government is approaching the number who say they approve. It is a blow for a leader whose personal appeal has consistently exceeded that of his policies. ft/cms/s/0/d88ec8dc-1543-11e4-85bc-00144feabdc0.html#ixzz38fFwQ4rd
