Japan has elected its first female Prime Minister, Sanae Takaichi, in a historic landslide victory, as reported by multiple sources including The News Pakistan and Dawn. Takaichi's Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), in coalition with the Japan Innovation Party, secured a supermajority in the lower house of parliament, winning up to 366 of the 465 seats, according to Al Jazeera. This victory allows Takaichi to advance her legislative agenda, despite not controlling the upper chamber. Her coalition's success is attributed to her strong leadership style, reminiscent of Britain's Margaret Thatcher, earning her the nickname 'Iron Lady' (Dawn). The election, held amid heavy snowfall, saw voters braving the weather to cast their ballots, with some areas experiencing snow piles over 2 meters high (Business Recorder).
