Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi said that Japan's preparation of a record high budget application has enhanced the transparency and discipline of the country's finances. Japan's ministries and departments applied for a total budget of 143.1 trillion yen for the new fiscal year beginning in April, which is higher than the amount of 122 trillion yen applied last year, and also exceeds the combined size of this year's initial budget and the previous year's supplementary budget. On the one hand, the Takaichi Sanae government aims to boost economic growth and help households cope with inflation, and on the other hand, it also wants to send investors a signal that Japan's financial situation is stable.
