Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida is set to reshuffle his cabinet in response to a funding scandal that has engulfed his government. Kishida plans to replace as many as 15 ministers and junior ministers, including the Chief Cabinet Secretary, amid allegations of involvement in a slush fund scandal. The scandal has led to the resignation of four cabinet ministers and threatens the future of Kishida's struggling government. The move is seen as an attempt to restore public trust and control the fallout from the scandal, which has dented support for his administration. Kishida's efforts to address the crisis come as the scandal has raised concerns about Japan's finances and the potential impact on the ruling Liberal Democratic Party.
