DPJ divided over tax hike
TOKYO, Japan - Hiroshi Kawauchi (front), a lawmaker from the Democratic Party of Japan who opposes a consumption tax hike proposed by the party leadership, looks angry at a press conference at the No. 2 building of the offices of House of Representatives members in Tokyo in the early hours of March 28, 2012, after the ruling party's talks on the matter were abruptly terminated past 2 a.m. that day, after lasting on and off for six hours. The leadership gave up on efforts to convince opponents of the tax hike and left the matter to the discretion of DPJ policy chief Seiji Maehara. (Kyodo)
