The Takaichi's Supermajority: What’s Next for Japan And The World?

Japan just held a historic House of Representatives election on 8th February, 2026, where Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) secured a landslide victory. With the LDP securing a historic two-thirds supermajority under Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, Japan’s political landscape has shifted dramatically. What does this mean for the future of the country, and its role on the global stage?

We are excited to welcome Tai Ying Wu, a history enthusiast with an academic background from Germany, who will break down the complexities of Japanese party platforms, offer an in-depth look at Sanae Takaichi, and analyze the potential shifts in Asian geopolitics. Following her presentation, we will transition into a community-led discussion to share insights and explore the results together.
