Masayoshi Ohira (March 12, 1910 - June 12, 1980) was a Japanese politician and a bureaucrat of the Ministry of Finance. He held the court rank of Senior Second Rank and the Order of the Grand Cordon of the Chrysanthemum. He entered politics after serving as secretary to Hayato Ikeda. As chairman of the Kōchi-kai faction, he was one of the "Sankaku Daifuku Naka" (Triangle, Big, Lucky, Middle) political figures. As Foreign Minister in the Kakuei Tanaka cabinet, he contributed to the normalization of diplomatic relations between Japan and China. Before becoming Prime Minister, he faced hardships such as the Shiina Arbitration, the Miki Oroshi (Miki's downfall), and the Daifuku Secret Agreement. Furthermore, after becoming Prime Minister, he was weakened by the 40-Day Struggle and the Happening Dissolution, and died in office during an election campaign. His "New Tokyo Plan" and "General Consumption Tax Plan" were never realized. He was nicknamed the "Ah-Uh Prime Minister" and the "Dull Ox of Sanuki." He served as a member of the House of Representatives (11 terms), Chief Cabinet Secretary (21st and 22nd), Minister for Foreign Affairs (85th, 86th, 95th, and 96th), Minister of International Trade and Industry (29th), Minister of Finance (79th and 80th), and Prime Minister (68th and 69th). He was known as a bookworm and a Christian (Anglican), and was described as "one of the most intellectual figures in post-war politics."
