Japan's Prime Minister has recently vowed to exercise caution in his statements relating to the ongoing political crisis concerning the survival of the current government. The pledge comes amidst increasing tensions and uncertainty in the political landscape, as the government's credibility and ability to lead effectively raises concerns nationwide. It remains to be seen how the declaration will impact the ongoing political turbulence, and what the Prime Minister's future actions will be.

In Japan, the stability of the government is viewed as a key measure of effective leadership and is subject to intense public scrutiny. Political assessment by the public often heavily focuses on the quality of communication, or the lack thereof, from the leadership. Respectful and responsible dialogue reflects the core principles of Japanese society – like order and harmony.

Despite cultural differences, the handling of political crises in the US or EU is not dissimilar to that in Japan. Leaders' words during critical times are heavily scrutinized and has a significant impact on public trust and confidence. In all these regions, open and responsible communication from the government is expected during such crises.
