TOKYO - Japanese Finance Minister Yoshihiko Noda said on Thursday that the next managing director of the International Monetary Fund should be chosen in an open and transparent manner, after Dominique Strauss-Kahn resigned as head of the organisation.
Noda declined to comment when asked if Strauss-Kahn's successor should be from Europe or from an emerging economy, only saying that the person should be chosen based on ability.
Strauss-Kahn resigned as head of the International Monetary Fund, the IMF said in a statement dated May 18, as he faces charges of sexual assault and attempted rape.?
