Japan&#039;s new Prime Minister Ishiba Shigeru on Tuesday highlighted his priorities in his first news conference after taking office. They include political reform, revising a major agreement with an ally and getting the public&#039;s mandate.
                
Ishiba Shigeru said, &quot;As a politician, I&#039;ve cherished gaining the understanding and empathy of the people for many years.&quot;
He added, &quot;We need to place faith in the public and tell the truth with courage and sincerity. And in order to win the trust of the public, we need to work on political reform as soon as possible.&quot;
                
His remarks follow a major political fundraising scandal involving the main ruling Liberal Democratic Party. He became head of the LDP in its leadership contest last week.
Ishiba said on Tuesday his administration will expand the circle of friendly and like-minded countries to realize peace and stability in Japan and the region. He cited the Japan-US alliance as the cornerstone to that.
                
&quot;I&#039;ve been thinking about revising the Japan-US Status of Forces Agreement for more than 20 years. Some people point out that it will raise concerns about the Japan-US alliance, but I don&#039;t think so at all. I believe that revising the agreement will lead to strengthening the alliance.&quot;
                
He also touched on his plan to dissolve the Lower House on October 9th and call for a general election on the 27th.
                
&quot;With the new Cabinet now established, I believe it is essential to seek a mandate from the people. I will continue to explain what this Cabinet represents today and in the future as well. It is my great responsibility to ask the citizens whether they will support this Cabinet or consider other options.&quot;
