Japan is on the brink of making history as the ruling Liberal Democratic Party elects Sanae Takaichi as its new leader, positioning her to become the country's first female prime minister.

日本即將寫下歷史，執政的自由民主黨選出高市早苗成為新黨魁，有望成為日本首位女性總理大臣。

The 64 year old right winger has pledged to build a strong and prosperous Japan on the international stage, promising to restore faith in her party and rekindle national confidence.

這位現年 64 歲的右翼分子誓言要在國際舞臺上建立一個強大繁榮的日本，並承諾重拾民眾對黨的信心，重燃國家自信。

The LDP election took place at the party headquarters in Tokyo on Saturday after former Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba resigned following just a year in office.

自民黨的黨魁選舉於週六在東京的黨部舉行，此前前總理大臣石破茂在任職僅一年後辭職。

Ishiba's leadership had angered the right wing of the party and left it reeling from back to back election losses amid a funding scandal and a cost of living crisis.

石破茂的領導激怒了黨內的右翼勢力，並讓黨在資金醜聞和生活成本危機的夾擊下，連續遭遇選舉失利。

In a tense runoff vote, Takaichi defeated her moderate rival Shinjiro Koizumi.

在一場緊張的決選投票中，高市早苗擊敗了她的溫和派對手小泉進次郎。

According to Kyoto times, she secured 183of589 votes in the first round, with Koizumi following at 164.

根據京都時報報導，她在第一輪投票中獲得了 589 票中的 183 票，小泉進次郎則以 164 票緊隨其後。

Three other candidates were eliminated early.

Though the runoff was expected to favor Koizumi, whose popularity among lawmakers was stronger.

儘管決選原本預期會對小泉進次郎有利，因為他在國會議員中的人氣較高。

It was Tokaichi who prevailed in the decisive second round.

最終獲勝的是高市早苗，她在關鍵的第二輪投票中勝出。

Moments before the final vote, Takaichi told party members recently, I have heard harsh voices from across the country saying we don't know what the LDP stands for anymore.

在高市早苗勝選前不久，她告訴黨員說：「我聽到了來自全國各地嚴厲的聲音，說我們已經不知道自民黨的立場是什麼了。」

I wanted to turn people's anxieties about their daily lives and the future into hope.

我想把大家對日常生活和未來的擔憂，轉化為希望。

While the LDP led coalition no longer commands a majority in Parliament, analysts say Takaichi is almost certain to win the upcoming parliamentary vote for prime minister later this month.

雖然自民黨領導的聯盟在國會中不再佔多數，但分析人士表示，高市早苗幾乎確定將贏得本月稍晚的總理大臣國會投票。

Takaichi's immediate task will be to reunite her fractured party and regain public trust after months of turmoil.

高市早苗的首要任務將是團結她分裂的黨派，並在經歷數月的動盪後重新贏得公眾信任。

She inherits an LDP that has been bruised by scandal and battered at the polls.

她繼承了一個因醜聞而受傷、在民調中受挫的自民黨。

A staunch conservative, Takaichi has long been known for her uncompromising views.

身為堅定的保守派，高市早苗向來以其毫不妥協的觀點聞名。

A protege of the late former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, she supports his free and open Indo Pacific strategy and advocates stronger defense capabilities to counter China and North Korea.

她是已故前總理大臣安倍晉三的門生，支持他自由開放的印太戰略，並主張強化國防能力以對抗中國和北韓。

She has also backed Abe's Abenomics policies for aggressive economic stimulus.

她也支持安倍的安倍經濟學政策，主張積極的經濟刺激。

Takechi has often drawn comparisons to former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, whom she has described as her role model.

高市早苗常被拿來與英國前總理大臣柴契爾夫人相比，她曾形容柴契爾夫人是她的榜樣。

A former heavy metal drummer and motorcycle enthusiast, she entered politics in 1993 and has held several key cabinet roles, including Minister for economic security from 2022 to 2024.

她曾是重金屬樂團的鼓手和摩托車愛好者，於1993年進入政壇，並擔任過多個重要內閣職位，包括2022年至2024年的經濟安全擔保大臣。

Her conservative leanings have also made her a controversial figure.

她保守的立場也讓她成為一個備受爭議的人物。

She opposes allowing married couples to have separate surnames and resists any reform enabling female succession to Japan's imperial throne.

她反對夫妻擁有不同姓氏，並抵制任何允許女性繼承日本皇位的改革。

Despite her ascent as Japan's first female leader, she is not known for championing gender equality.

儘管她成為日本首位女性領導人，但她並不以推動性別平等聞名。

On foreign policy, she has advocated closer security cooperation with Taiwan, reconsideration of investment deals with the US and what she calls a Japan first approach.

在外交政策上，她主張與臺灣加強安全合作，重新審視與美國的投資協議，並採取她所謂的「日本優先」策略。

During a campaign debate, she criticized Japan's tariff deal with the US Calling parts of it unequal.

在一次競選辯論中，她批評日本與美國的關稅協議，稱其中部分條款不平等。

As Takaichi steps into leadership, she faces enormous challenges, from repairing Japan's global alliances to reviving its economy and uniting a divided nation.

隨著高市早苗登上領導地位，她面臨著巨大的挑戰，從修復日本的國際聯盟，到重振經濟，再到團結一個分裂的國家。

Yet for many, her victory represents not just a political milestone but a symbolic breaking of what she once called Japan's highest glass ceiling.

然而對許多人來說，她的勝利不僅是一個政治里程碑，更是一個象徵性的突破，打破了她曾稱之為日本最高玻璃天花板的障礙。
