ISHIBA ELECTED JAPAN'S PRIME MINISTER AFTER RUNOFF第103代首相に石破茂氏

2024年11月27日 | 爺英語

Ishiba Shigeru has been re-elected prime minister of Japan, following a runoff vote in the Diet's Lower House. It was the first vote of its kind in 30 years, after the ruling coalition lost its majority in last month's election.
(Nukaga Fukushiro / Lower House Speaker) “This chamber has hereby decided to designate Mr. Ishiba Shigeru as prime minister.”
Ishiba, who leads the main ruling Liberal Democratic Party, beat the Constitutional Democratic Party leader Noda Yoshihiko in the second round of voting. Despite losing ground in October, the LDP remains the largest party in the Lower House and still has the support of its junior coalition partner, Komeito. Opposition parties failed to rally behind one candidate. Any time there's a cabinet change, Japan's Emperor ceremonially endorses the new ministers. After that ceremony, Ishiba is expected to hold a news conference to present his next moves.

FUNAI ELECTRIC TO BEGIN BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDINGS船井電機 破産手続き開始決定

2024年11月20日 | 爺英語

Japanese electronics maker Funai Electric received court approval Thursday to begin bankruptcy proceedings. The money-losing company was once known for selling its products around the world. The Osaka-based company was established in 1961 and has made TVs, videotape players, printers, air conditioners, and other products. In 2000, the firm was listed on the former first section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. The company's website says it began manufacturing liquid crystal display TVs in 2002, and the products once had a top share in the North American market. But its business deteriorated amid increased competition with Chinese makers and other rivals. In 2021, the company went under the umbrella of a Tokyo-based publishing firm and was delisted.  Funai reported a net loss of 13.1 billion yen, or about 86 million dollars for the year ending March 2024 in an August statement. Total liabilities stood at 46.1 billion yen, or over 303 million dollars.
