Shinzo Abe's legacy

With the assassination of former Japanese PM Shinzo Abe on July 8, 2022, the world has lost one of its finest leaders. A champion of democracy and gender equality, Shinzo Abe was a towering personality, who contributed immensely to Japan's economy during his term as prime minister. A remarkable administrator, he was Japan's longest-serving PM, a testament to his popularity.

But unfortunately like Indira Gandhi and Benazir Bhutto before him, his popularity also created enemies among fringe radical groups, leading to his assassination. Nevertheless, his reforms are destined to benefit the Japanese people for generations to come.

He was Japan's longest-serving Prime Minister who served the country from 2006 to 2007 and again from 2012 to 2020.

In the years that he had been the PM, he has done a lot for the country. He oversaw Japan's recovery from a devastating earthquake, a tsunami and a nuclear disaster. He introduced stimulus policies to revive the economy. These measures led to his nickname "Abenomics'.

We pray that his soul may rest in peace in the abode of the Almighty.
