Over a half of those polled, 56.3 percent said that the Japanese government should have held an emergency security meeting on the heels of the Paris attacks to assess the risks.
The opinion poll, which was published Sunday, showed that the support for the Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's Cabinet rose to 48.3% compared to 44% in October, while 40,4% said they do not support the cabinet, down from 41% in last October.
