		Aoki is a key member of Obuchi's own huge faction in the LDP, which launched the three-way coalition government with the Liberals and the New Komeito in a cabinet reshuffle last October.
		When Aoki, who was born in Shimane Prefecture, western Japan, in 1934, was appointed chief cabinet secretary last October, sceptics pointed to his reserved nature and expressed doubt in his ability to fulfil his role as chief government spokesman.
		But Aoki boosted his reputation by winning cooperation from the New Komeito in passing a number of key bills, including one to legally recognize Japan's national flag and anthem, during the last regular session of parliament which ended in August 1999.
