A gamble by Japan's Prime Minister to increase her party's power in Parliament appears to have paid off big time.

日本總理的豪賭，希望能增加她在國會的黨內權力，看來這次大有收穫。

Broadcaster NHK is projecting that the Liberal Democratic Party of Sanae Takechi will win more than two thirds of the seats in the lower house.

電視臺 NHK 預測，由武智早苗領導的自由民主黨將贏得下議院超過三分之二的席次。

That would allow the LDP to govern without a coalition partner and make more sweeping policy changes.

這樣一來，自民黨就能在沒有聯合政府夥伴的情況下執政，並進行更廣泛的政策變更。

The snap election she called in January January was seen as a referendum on her leadership.

她在年初發動的閃電選舉，被視為對她領導地位的公投。

We sought the public's judgment on a major shift in economic and fiscal policy.

我們尋求民眾對經濟與財政政策重大轉變的判斷。

We campaigned for a responsible, proactive approach.

我們主張採取負責任、積極主動的方法。

And that vision for Japan's future has clicked with voters.

而這個對日本未來的願景，已經獲得選民的認同。

Takechi, an ultra conservative who became Japan's first woman prime minister in October, has made populist economic promises with the hope of boosting Japanese growth.

武智早苗是一位極端保守派，她於十月成為日本首位女性總理，她做出了民粹主義經濟承諾，希望能促進日本經濟增長。

She has taken a tough stance on immigration, which her critics say has created division in a country with few foreign nationals.

她對移民採取了強硬立場，但批評者說，這在一個外國人很少的國家製造了分裂。

Takaichi has also been a keen supporter of changing Japan's pacifist constitution.

高市也一直積極支持修改日本的和平憲法。

Internationally, Takaichi has had the endorsement of US President Donald Trump, but

在國際上，高市也獲得了美國總統唐納·川普的支持，但

relations with Beijing are strained after she suggested that Japan would intervene if China invaded Taiwan.

在中國入侵臺灣時，她曾暗示日本將會介入，這使得與北京的關係變得緊張。

Her popularity, particularly among younger voters and a strong social media presence has worked.

她在年輕選民中的高人氣，以及強大的社群媒體影響力，都奏效了。

However, her conservative Liberal Democratic Party, or ldp, which has governed Japan for most of the past seven decades, has been struggling.

然而，她所屬的自由民主黨，也就是 LDP，在過去七十年的大部分時間裡都執政日本，但近年來一直面臨困境。

Scandals and a new opposition alliance have caused serious challenges for the party.

醜聞和新的反對黨聯盟給該黨帶來了嚴峻的挑戰。

Opinion is divided over Takeichi's victory.

Over the past several years, the LDP has been quite liberal with Takaichi.

過去幾年，LDP 在高市身上展現了相當自由的態度。

Things shifted towards a more conservative position and I think that led to this result.

情況轉向更保守的立場，我認為這導致了這個結果。

It seems the opinions of younger people are not being reflected very much.

感覺年輕人的意見沒有被充分反映出來。

Or rather there's a visible lack of effort among young people themselves to try to have their views reflected.

或者說，年輕人本身也明顯缺乏努力去讓自己的觀點被聽見。

Sanai Takechi will now have to live up to her pledge to work, work, work, work and work.

現在，Sanai Takechi 必須信守她「努力、努力、再努力」的承諾。

Alright, let's cross over to Stephen Nogg in Tokyo.

好的，我們現在連線到東京的 Stephen Nogg。

He's a professor at the Department of Politics and International Studies at the International Christian University there.

他是國際基督教大學政治與國際研究系的教授。

You've got a big job explaining this to us.

你肩負著向我們解釋這一切的重任。

When you look at today's results, what is the headline for you?

當你看到今天的結果時，對你來說，最重要的標題是什麼？

What story are these voters telling us so clearly?

這些選民到底想告訴我們什麼樣的故事？

Well, I think at the foreign policy level, the biggest, biggest headline would be, thank you, Mr. Xi.

嗯，我認為在外交政策層面，最、最重大的標題會是，謝謝你，習先生。

I don't think that Prime Minister Takechi would have had such an overwhelming response to her.

我不認為岸田總理會受到如此壓倒性的回應。

Her pushback against Chinese economic coercion and the massive disinformation campaign after her statements back in November about Taiwan.

她對中國經濟脅迫的反擊，以及在她十一月發表關於臺灣的言論後，大規模的假訊息宣傳。

It's allowed her to demonstrate leadership.

It's allowed her to demonstrate her ability to create broad coalitions and partnerships globally to push back against this kind of domestic behavior or international behavior.

這讓她得以展現她建立全球廣泛聯盟與夥伴關係的能力，以反擊這種國內行為或國際行為。

But at the international level, the headline would be inflation, wages and creating a better environment for families.

但在國際層面，標題會是通膨、薪資，以及為家庭創造更好的環境。

These are the big problems that are facing ordinary Japanese today.

這些是今天普通日本人面臨的重大問題。

And she's going to have a big challenge in dealing with these issues.

而她將面臨處理這些問題的巨大挑戰。

And you probably noticed I didn't say immigration or revising the constitution and that was quite intentional.

你可能也注意到我沒有提到移民或修改憲法，這是有意為之的。

These aren't the priorities for ordinary Japanese citizens.

這些都不是普通日本民眾關心的重點。

How do the ordinary Japanese feel about the relationship you mentioned?

你提到的關係，普通日本人有什麼感覺？

The other side, naturally, I guess, is the U.S. japan alliance.

另一邊，我想當然就是美日同盟。

How do we understand that in practical terms?

How's that going to play out in Japan now?

Well, the Japanese have always been, you know, worried about whether the United States would abandon them or not for some deal with China or otherwise.

嗯，日本人一直以來，你知道的，都很擔心美國會不會為了跟中國或其他地方達成協議而拋棄他們。

And this has been something that they've worried about about since the end of the Cold War period.

這點是他們從冷戰結束以來就一直擔心的事。

And President Trump with his unorthodox policies, his Liberation Day and of course his approach to Xi Jinping has made the Japanese more anxious.

而川普總統他非傳統的政策、他的解放日，當然還有他對習近平的處理方式，都讓日本人更加焦慮。

But I think Prime Minister Takechi has raised used that expression, a limitless alliance to demonstrate that the United States and Japan are a relationship that goes beyond leaders, that they have shared interests in peace and stability in the region.

不過，我認為武見總理曾用「無上限的同盟」這個詞，來展現美日關係超越領導人，在區域和平與穩定上擁有共同利益。

And ensuring that ill considered considered military intervention over Taiwan or gray zone tactics and hybrid tactics in the South China Sea would be really destabilizing for the whole region and most importantly destabilizing for the Chinese economy, which spills over to the political system in China.

並且確保在臺灣進行未經深思熟慮的軍事幹預，或在南海採取灰色地帶戰術和混合戰術，將會嚴重破壞整個區域的穩定，最重要的是破壞中國經濟，這也會影響到中國的政治體系。

From the Chinese point of view, let's be frank, this relationship is an economic relationship.

從中國的角度來看，坦白說，這種關係是一種經濟關係。

They have deep, deep, deep mutual security concerns about each other.

他們之間有非常、非常、非常深層的相互安全顧慮。

And I think whether Takechi was elected or Santa Claus was elected, there would still be huge problems in this relationship.

我認為，無論是武見當選還是聖誕老人當選，這種關係都還是會存在巨大的問題。

How much easier is it for her to tackle these problems?

她要如何更容易地處理這些問題呢？

Stephen, just briefly with this now supermajority.

史蒂芬，簡短地談談現在這個超級多數。

Well, she doesn't have resistance and this is good and bad.

嗯，她沒有阻力，這有好有壞。

The coalition parties, partners such as Komeito put a softer tone on foreign policy and domestic policy.

像公明黨這樣的聯合政府夥伴，在外交政策和國內政策上會採取較溫和的語氣。

She could be too enthusiastic about the super majority and not understanding that you still need to create consensus with other parties to push forward on foreign policy and domestic policy.

她可能會對超級多數過於熱衷，而沒有意識到她仍然需要與其他政黨建立共識，才能在外交政策和國內政策上取得進展。

Overreach or just the right amount of balance with coalition parties.

是用力過猛，還是與聯合政府夥伴之間的平衡恰到好處？
