The Murayama Cabinet ( Japanese 村 山 内閣 , Murayama naikaku ) ruled Japan under the leadership of Prime Minister Tomiichi Murayama from June 30, 1994 until a cabinet reshuffle on August 8, 1995 . The coalition cabinet of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), Socialist Party (SPJ) and New Sakigake Party (NPS) was the first Japanese government under the leadership of a socialist prime minister since 1948, although the LDP held a relative majority of the seats in the National Assembly . The latter had lost its absolute majority in the 1993 Shūgiin election and was in the opposition under the anti-LDP coalition cabinets Hosokawa and Hata . After the governing parties SPJ and NPS announced their withdrawal from the Hosokawa coalition in April 1994, Tsutomu Hata ruled with the remaining parties as a minority government . Under these circumstances, the LDP, SPJ and NPS agreed to form a new cabinet under socialist leadership so that the LDP could return to government and Murayama was elected Prime Minister in June 1994. This government was particularly criticized for its crisis management as a result of the Kobe earthquake in January 1995 ; in the Sangiin election in July of that year , the SPJ suffered heavy losses.
