An overview of Japanese political developments in 2003 begins by summing up national election results. A consumption tax rate was proposed in the face of social security expenditure pressure. Public works spending pressure was high too, & the capital deficit of the Japan Expressway Public Corporation egged on reform. The Iraq war & the issuance of deficit bonds were two other issues in play during the year. Other financial developments are noted. 3 Tables, 2 References. J. Zendejas
