TOKYO -- With 磁力转种子Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba stepping down, Japan's ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) is bracing for a heated leadership contest as major contenders signal their intention to run.

Former foreign minister Toshimitsu Motegi on Monday announced his intention to run, pledging to devote his full political experience to the party and government.

Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi has also decided to run, Kyodo News cited party insiders.

The LDP is expected to finalize voting procedures for the election as early as Tuesday, according to the report.

Both Motegi and Hayashi ran in last year's leadership contest. Motegi, a veteran politician, also served as LDP policy chief.
