The Shinshinto (新進党, "New Frontier Party") was a former Japanese political party. As a merger of several small parties, the party was ideologically diverse, with its membership ranging from moderate Socialists to Neoliberals and Conservatives . It is now defunct. The Shinshinto, or New Frontier Party, was founded in 1994 by former prime minister Kaifu Toshiki , and immediately became one of the members of the ruling anti- LDP Coalition led by Hosokawa Morihiro . The party helped the government, led by the New Japan Party and the Japan Renewal Party , control the government until it collapsed in 1996. In 1995 , former coalition leader Hata Tsutomu was ousted by Ichiro Ozawa who led the party until its dissolution. The party was dissolved in 1998 , and its remnants collated into several tiny parties, including the Liberal Party , Reform Club , New Peace Party , and New Fraternity Party . These parties eventually all merged into the Liberal Democratic Party Of Japan . This party was extremely varied in its membership, a result of the broad coalition that formed it. The party, as said above, is now defunct. Most of its former members had joined the Liberal Party (1998) , which in turn joined the Democratic Party. SEE ALSO
