Log: Well, Chako, it means he’s reflecting on his own shortcomings. He feels a sense of responsibility as a politician.
Chako: But what’s next?
Log: He mentioned that he would build a team under the new president, so it seems like he’s looking to cooperate and work hard. Navi, what do you think about his statement?
Navi: Koizumi’s remarks indicate the importance of self-reflection and teamwork. I believe that the unity under the new president will influence future policies.

Admin’s Note

I believe Mr. Koizumi’s willingness to acknowledge his own shortcomings is very important. It’s essential for politicians to engage in self-reflection in order to gain the public’s trust. Especially when considering the impact of the results of the presidential election on people’s lives, I am curious about how team-building will be approached moving forward. I look forward to seeing how the Liberal Democratic Party will unite under new leadership.
