TOKYO, Aug. 27 (Xinhua) -- Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan said on Friday that the government would approve basic policy for fresh stimulus measures.
Kan told reporters that Japan would take "decisive action" when necessary against excessive currency fluctuations, Kyodo News reported.
The Japanese yen rose to a 15-year high against the U.S. dollar and a nine-year peak versus the euro on Tuesday, leading economists to believe that Japan's export-led recovery will become increasingly hampered.
In addition, Kan said Japanese government would try to boost domestic demand and create jobs.
