Mari Kushibuchi

Kushibuchi came to politics from the Peace Boat, sailing the world with its NGO before winning a Tokyo seat in 2009. That route shows. Career politicians speak the language of ministries, while those who arrive from the field speak of what they have seen. I do not agree with her on everything, but she does not soften a position to be liked.
