Support for Prime Minister Abe Shinzo's Cabinet jumped eight points to 43 percent in April, a Mainichi poll showed on April 30.
Abe's bolstered support appears to have come through heightened expectations of his leadership and results from a higher profile in recent weeks.
The large rise ― which was accompanied by an even bigger fall of nine percentage points amongst those not supporting the Cabinet ― was the first for Abe and also the first time since January that support for the prime minister's Cabinet outweighed those who didn't support it.
Abe's Cabinet kicked off in September last year with support at 67 percent, but backing from voters has dwindled ever since.
Abe's high profile has been working in his favor recently, following summit meetings with the leaders of China and the United States, as well as a series of tours of regional areas.
What's the major reason ofthe support cabinet rise? I think we Japanese doesn't have a view to see our government in a long term. We seem to judge their task or value every short time and we are easy to change our value or view if something has happened
