According to reports from Asahi TV and other Japanese media on October 4, the newly appointed Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, Kazusheng Yana was recently accused of abusing his power to arbitrarily cut local government budgets that did not support him, triggering widespread criticism. After the scandal came to light, Kazuo Yanai was vague and tried to exonerate himself, but “Shimotsuke Shimbun” further revealed recordings of all of Kazuo Yanai's speeches, making him the target of public opinion. The “J-CAST” news network and other Japanese media said that the scandal “gave the new Takashi cabinet a head start”, which had just been established for half a month. According to reports, when Kazuo Yanai ran for election as a member of the National Assembly, Takaichi Sanae “stood up” for him and rated him as his “think tank.” Media reports from Japan's “Weekly Bunshun” magazine and other media. Kazuo Yana said in May at a meeting of the Tochigi branch of the Liberal Democratic Party that they had “drastically cut” the budget for road construction in Nasukarasuyama City and Nakagawa Town in the prefecture. According to media reports, Kazusheng Yanai did this because the regions mentioned above did not support it in the February House of Representatives election. He lost to his opponent in that election and was eventually “revived” through proportional representation. After the “Budget Gate” scandal came to light, the opposition camp and the Japanese public were strongly dissatisfied and demanded that Yasunaga resign. Kazuo Yanai initially declined to respond, saying he “will not answer about his previous time as Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries.” He repeatedly “declined to comment” about 20 times at the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries press conference on the 2nd, and was mocked by Japanese netizens as “like a broken recorder.” As public pressure and criticism intensified, Yu Hesheng held another press conference later on the 2nd, admitting that he had made “budget cuts,” but said that there were “misunderstandings” and that he would not resign as a result.
