Description
Nine candidates in the race to become Japan's next prime minister hold the first debate after the campaign kicked off earlier this week. Whoever wins the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) leadership contest on September 27 will succeed unpopular Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, whose three-year term was tarnished by scandals while voters struggled with inflation. The conservative LDP has governed almost uninterrupted for decades and holds a majority in parliament, meaning the winner is essentially guaranteed to become premier. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
