My Take

What catches my eye about Hiroyuki Kishi is the shape of his career rather than any single credential. Born in Tokyo in 1962, he went from Hibiya High School to Hitotsubashi University, about as straight a line into the Japanese establishment as exists, and then declined to stay on it. He joined the trade ministry, served as a close aide to Heizo Takenaka as a ministerial secretary and cabinet adviser, and now teaches at Keio University's graduate school while working as an economic commentator; he is even an adviser to the fighting promotion RIZIN. I tend to trust the ones who step out from behind the institution.
