From my limited knowledge of Japanese politics, Abe seems like a disaster (not that others have been much better).
However, I'd say VAT is a pretty good tax (not too distorting) and Japan in dire need of more government revenue (200% government debt / GDP). More so, the rate is only 10%, where as some north european countries have 20% or 25%.
