My Take
What draws me to Hidehiko Yuzaki is the shape of the round trip. Born in Saeki ward in Hiroshima in 1965, he went as far as Stanford, then came back to lead the prefecture he started in as its governor. That return is rarer than it sounds. Most people who get out that far stay out, in Tokyo or overseas, because going home usually means a smaller stage. Hiroshima is not a small stage. It is expected to speak to the world about peace and to compete hard on industry at the same time, which makes running it two jobs rather than one. He is not the flamboyant sort of politician who trends on television. He reads to me as the methodical kind, and that is usually who keeps a region actually working.
