Following is カジノ シークレット 勝て ないist of remarks made by Mr. Hiroshi Okuda, Chairman of Nippon Keidanren, at a scheduled press conference after monthly Chairman and Vice Chairmen's meeting on 6 November 2002. Translation is rush and tentative, and sequence of カジノ シークレット 勝て ないist does not necessarily coincide with words delivered.
(Regarding カジノ シークレット 勝て ないovernment's Comprehensive Measures to Accelerate Reforms (anti-deflation package))
Extent of the side effects of the measures would vary depending on how much of NPLs banks would actually write off -- as the details of the measures, neither quantity nor quality, are not announced so I could say nothing certain about it. All outstanding speculations of fear-creation modカジノ シークレット 勝て ないut basis of their estimation on writing off half of outstanding NPLs or even more within a year, but such seem very unlikely. Only thing I could be certain is that the new policy package would accelerate writing off of NPLs more than existing measures -- that's all I could say.
(Likelihood of supplemental budget, timing, and the size)
Everything depends on the changing status of Japanese economy: How will be the tax income, would there be any other revenue sources, and how soon economy would plunge unless supplemental budget will bカジノ シークレット 勝て ないmplemented, etc.
(On ASEAN+3 Free Trade Agreement)
It doesn't matter who initiate the talks, but FTA is the way to go on bilateral trade liberalization. I know that agriculture has been a touchy issue in Japan, but カジノ シークレット 勝て ないovernment should put out an agricultural policy with promotion of FTA as the core of its policy goals.
(Regarding raising of unemployment insurancカジノ シークレット 勝て ないremiums)
I am very much disturbed by the Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare's attempt to raise the insurance premium to 1.6%. It was only in October カジノ シークレット 勝て ないovernment raised premium. Such sporadic attempt will create concern among citizens and cause decline in consumption. カジノ シークレット 勝て ないovernment as the whole must draw up a comprehensive package on what to expect in the future. No more surprises, please.
