Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has replaced four Cabinet ministers linked to a slush funds scandal in an attempt to contain the damage to his governing party. The scandal involves the Liberal Democratic Party's influential faction, previously led by the late former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. The shakeup is Kishida's third Cabinet reshuffle as his support ratings continue to drop. The purge of members from the Abe faction is crucial for Kishida's political balancing act, but it could trigger a power struggle. The scandal revolves around alleged unreported fundraising proceeds and kickbacks.
