Someone really being fired for this case? So there are cases where bowing alone is not enough in Japan?

-3 ( +9 / -12 )

Very low rate by world standards.

Oviously wholly insufficient, but at least it is a good first step, as long as the SDF do not consider the matter solved and instead make effective reforms this may mean that in the future these kind of scandals will not be repeated.

schools, military, media, private companies, families are plagued with harassment and bullying. I don’t want to believe there is a bullying culture here.

What is with the male mindset in military environment?

Very low rate by world standards.

The number of cases or the number of firings?

It is a humble beginning, but it is a start. A small step for a person, but a giant leap for mankind. Even Vatican is starting to acknowledge their sins and faults. Human Rights, Women rights must be respected, always, by all, at all times.
