Approval rating of PM Abe’s cabinet soars - Nikkei poll

FXStreet (Bali) - Nikkei reports that PM Abe's cabinet has seen a boost in public approval following its reshuffle, with support now at 60% based on a Nikke poll, after an 11 points rise.

According to Nikkei: "The rise in support reflects favorable views among women and independent voters who liked Wednesday’s lineup change. Public support for the cabinet rose 11 percentage points from the previous survey conducted in late August. The disapproval rating declined 10 points to 26%. Support for the government among women had been eroding, and the cabinet revamp appears to have reversed the trend, at least for now."
