Abdullah Ensour vs Kakuei Tanaka

Abdullah Ensour was appointed Prime Minister in October 2012, replacing Awn Khasawneh. His appointment came during the Syrian civil war, which caused a massive refugee influx into Jordan.

Ensour's government oversaw the response to the Syrian refugee crisis, with over 1.3 million Syrians entering Jordan by 2015. His administration coordinated with UN agencies to provide shelter, healthcare, and education, straining Jordan's resources.

Ensour resigned in May 2016 after nearly four years in office, one of the longest tenures in Jordan's modern history. His resignation followed the end of his term and the appointment of a new government under Hani al-Mulki.

Tanaka published a book and policy blueprint titled 'Building a New Japan: A Plan for Remodeling the Japanese Archipelago', which proposed massive public works projects, including a nationwide high-speed rail network and industrial relocation. The plan aimed to decentralize industry and reduce regional disparities, but contributed to land speculation and inflation.

Following the 1973 oil crisis, Tanaka promoted a 'comprehensive security' policy that emphasized resource diplomacy and economic cooperation with oil-producing nations. He also proposed the 'Tanaka Doctrine' for a more independent Japanese foreign policy, though its implementation was limited by domestic and international constraints.

In July 1976, former Prime Minister Kakuei Tanaka was arrested on charges of accepting bribes from Lockheed Corporation to facilitate the sale of aircraft to All Nippon Airways. He was convicted in 1983 and sentenced to four years in prison, though he remained politically influential while appealing the verdict.
