Miss Japan's beauty pageant has been elected as a member of the House of Representatives, and has been promoted like a rocket on many occasions. The insider said it was related to Abe.

On October 10, according to foreign media sources, after Shinzo Abe ended the longest term as prime minister in history, Japanese politics once again embarked on the old path of "coming together", which created a good opportunity for many people to come to power. Recently, Matsuno, who was previously elected "Miss Japan", was revealed by the outside world that he would seek to become a member of the House of Representatives. This has caused a lot of controversy in Japan. It is reported that Miyaka Matsuno was born in a political family. Although he has been involved in the entertainment industry, he has a good foundation in politics. Now he is about to actively participate in the election and is accused of having a close relationship with Shinzo Abe.

As we all know, Japan is a country that focuses on political traditions. Many people enter the political arena because of their family background. This has become an important factor affecting the country's political development. It is understood that this political pattern has gradually become a default "hidden rule" since the Meiji Restoration, and it has continued to this day. Since Ito Hirobumi became the first prime minister in 1885, Japan has produced a total of 64 prime ministers, and in more than 100 years, five major political families, dominated by Fukuda and Abe, have gradually formed. Take the former leader Shinzo Abe as an example. His maternal grandfather Shinsuke Kishi and grand uncle Eisaku Sato both served as prime ministers. The father and son of the former leader Junichiro Koizumi are also members of Congress.

It is worth noting that since entering the 1990s, Japan has been trapped in a vicious circle of economic stagnation, which has caused the political arena to become as lively as a horse watching. During this period, the short-lived cabinet became a distinctive feature of Japanese politics, and "changing ten prime ministers in ten years" became a norm. For example, Yasuo Fukuda and Taro Aso both hurriedly stepped down after working for about a year. Fortunately, after Shinzo Abe came to power again, Japan finally achieved political stability. However, after breaking the historical record of the term of office, Abe chose to leave, which allowed Japan to return to the familiar path of the outside world.

In this political environment, many young people are eager to try, trying to achieve the goal of political life by relying on the traditional influence of the family. Recently, a former beauty pageant named Mika Matsuno is actively planning to run for Congress, which has aroused widespread concern from all walks of life. It is understood that Matsuno is the "Miss Japan" in 2016. Although she is only 26 years old, her background is not simple. It is reported that the woman's father was a close friend of Junichiro Koizumi, and has served as deputy cabinet secretary and other important positions, so she has a wealth of political network resources. Prior to this, Miyoshi Matsuno had been received by Shinzo Abe, and he had also visited other high-level personalities, which is considered to have accumulated a lot of popularity. In the eyes of people familiar with the matter, Miyoshi Matsuno's "outreach" is likely to be the force exerted by Shinzo Abe behind the scenes.

Regarding the above situation, there has been a lot of controversy in Japan. Some political commentators pointed out that although Japanese politics is looking forward to newcomers, it will bring certain hidden dangers if the similar beauty pageant champions are allowed to enter politics. Many netizens also said that the Japanese are turning politics into entertainment, which is really no bottom line.
