Japan's finance minister Tuesday put additional pressure on the Bank of Japan, saying he wants the central bank to do more to support the country's economy.

'Candidly speaking, I still want more' from the BOJ to prop up growth, Finance Minister Naoto Kan said during Tuesday's session of a parliamentary budgetary committee.

Kan made the comments after the BOJ left its short-term interest rate at 0.1% at its monetary policy meeting that ended earlier in the day.
