Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said Wednesday he will retain all five executives of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party in their current posts in a reshuffle of the Cabinet and LDP leadership next week.

Abe made the remarks in a meeting with reporters accompanying him on his visit to Jamaica following his stay in New York to attend U.N. conferences.

The five LDP executives are Vice President Masahiko Komura, Secretary-General Sadakazu Tanigaki, Policy Research Council Chairwoman Tomomi Inada, General Council Chairman Toshihiro Nikai and Election Strategy Committee Chairman Toshimitsu Motegi.
