"My shortcomings caused mistrust from the public and I apologize from my heart for this"
Japanese Prime Minister Taro Aso made this comment on a live TV broadcast having dissolved the lower house of the Japanese Parliament.
A country facing an uphill recessionary battle, stymied policy implementation, internal party fighting and a public lacking confidence in their leaders.
Recognising that the Japanese people have a role to play in the country's future, parliament was dissolved with elections to be held on August 30th, with the hopes of ushering in a new era of energetic fresh thinking and a mandate to make change happen.
