Suzuki’s Japan Aims for Reform Yet Faces Bureaucratic Resistance
The Japanese economy shows a 2.7 percent growth in the year to last March, with unemployment at 2.4 percent and inflation at about 2.5 percent. Prime Minister Suzuki reduced deficit dependence from 39 percent in 1979 to 31.6 percent, but faces limited progress on eradicating deficits by 1984 and weakening reforms in the bureaucracy. Internationally, his government nudges auto export restraint and eases import access, while defending a larger defense budget amid domestic opposition and US pressure over nonproliferation concerns.
