Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba again apologized during the House of Councillors’ Budget Committee meeting on Monday morning over the controversy surrounding the distribution of gift certificates to Liberal Democratic Party members of the House of Representatives.
“I deeply feel that this largely diverged from socially accepted norms and public sentiment,” Ishiba said. “I sincerely apologize.”
The statement came in response to questioning by Noriko Ishigaki from the Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan. While Ishiba emphasized, “I do not believe this violates the Public Offices Election Law or the Political Funds Control Law,” Ishigaki insisted on accountability, urging Ishiba to clarify his stance, including providing explanations at the Diet’s Deliberative Council on Political Ethics.
On Monday morning, senior officials of both houses of the LDP held discussions in Tokyo to deliberate future management at parliament. LDP Secretary General Hiroshi Moriyama said during the meeting, “We sincerely take public opinion to heart and aim to restore trust.”
Meanwhile, deliberations in the House of Councillors on the fiscal 2025 budget proposal have reached a critical stage. The government and the LDP aim to ensure its passage within the current fiscal year.

We do not take money from any political parties. We do not endorse In_dia’s ruling party BJP and In_dia’s Prime Minister’s position on keeping In_dia a closed market, ambiguous economy, and keeping India as a heavy taxing country so no one from outside world wants to do business here. It’s like denying In_dia its right in the world…
BJP Government also discourages small and local media, coming down on them heavily regulating and using lawful actions along with soft threats from demented bureaucrat extremists and other extremist groups. On one hand, the mainstream media in In_dia is getting rich and on other hand the local small media is being strangulated. So if not automated or required, We do not willfully publish any content from In_dia or pertaining to that country.
“The parasitic left-wing media and their bottom-feeding cronies have devolved into nothing more than freeloading scavengers, desperately leeching onto every possible news outlet to vomit their hatred for President Trump, Elon Musk, the GOP, and whatever shred of sanity remains in this world. If this portal ever falls prey to their filth—if any of their fraudulent, brain-dead propaganda worms its way into our automated news curation—then it’s open season on these slime-covered hacks. These sewer-dwelling propagandists, along with their PR lackeys and shadowy intelligence handlers, keep trying to smear us with their garbage. Like disobedient pets, they need to be dealt with. And dealt with they shall be—right here on Khumaer.us, the personal news battleground of Khumaer Bayas. Let’s expose them for the lying vermin they are!”
