Mr. Furumoto has spent several years covering Japan’s Defense Agency, now the Minsitry of Defense. Until he was recently appointed to the Washington Bureau, Mr. Furumoto was witnessing Japan’s domestic political transformation as a correspondent in Mainichi’s politics section, with a closer look at the LDP’s Mori faction. Mr. Furumoto will bring new insights into the revision of Japan’s defense policy under the new DPJ administration.
