Koizumi picked as politician of year+

(Japan Economic Newswire Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)MOSCOW, Dec. 29_(Kyodo) _ Major Russian economic daily Vedomosti on Thursday picked Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi as its politician of the year.

Koizumi "refused to compromise with the opposition bloc (in his postal privatization drive) and won a landslide victory after dissolving the House of Representatives," it said. "He showed the qualifications that are required of a capable politician."



The daily also referred to the premier's promotion of the so-called "Cool Biz" campaign, under which the government urged employees in both the public and private sectors to take off their ties and jackets in summertime to cut down on office cooling costs.
