it is important that Y100/$ as, that even though this may not have that much impact on Large multi national but makes huge differenced to small to medium business and manufactures which Japan heavily relies on

you know the old saying 'you can take the horse to water but you can't make it drink' It is a nightmare having Chinese in a normal society. BTW I'm not Japanese so this is not the anti Chinese sentiment reflected by a Japanese and I live in London

spitting, shouting -( that language really sound terrible), queue jumping!!!! Badly dressed, bad hair

sorry I know this sound terrible but it is true!

*"Japanese autos tend to be of relatively good quality"

That's like saying Japanese women tend to be relatively beautiful

.* Yes correct on both accounts

soon enough it will be China and teh rest of teh civilised world

with out over generalising, Romanian's and romania is concidered to be teh PIT of Europe, I have been through there in my travels not so long ago, and it really is a PIT

Chinese plane was lost due to doggy Chinese radar information, Chinese are climing rights to these islands based on doggy chiniese GPS coordinates

'noumen.arete' That is very interesting to know, It is generally obvious on motorbikes as well ( I'm more into motorbikes than cars) that honda quality IS the best out there but I would not say that other Japanese are far behind ( Bikes wise it is Honda, yamaha, Kawasaki and then Suzuki some what behind)

so is Japan down to 3 auto makers now?!

the state should do somting to protect & help these valuable lives!

So japan to the recue of 'Most Japan Hating' country in Europe, This will be the most unreliable Nissan ever. real shame

China is just a barking dog and it does not take a lot to shut a barking dog!

it was unfortunate, this in no way diter Japanese from working abroad, specially Africa or Middle East

Just learn from Hyundai: Hire a team of German Automotive designers. Hyundai cars have some very nice, European-like designs recently...

ebisen - The issue sis not teh designers the problem is the managment, At toyota like most Japanese companies teh managment decides teh final design, not teh designers. japan has soem of teh best designers in any field including Automotive

Never mind about the geographical location, it is teh same backward, animal Mentality - bloody animals,

seeing is believing, they have been saying that at the introduction of evey new generation............Toyota is fully capable, just need a slap in the face!

Lexus 300 anyone

why has it taken this long!

apple is simply over valued by miles!

china is a ticking time bomb

China is necessary evil, fact!, and Japanese firms will struggle ( comparatively) more than other foreign investors but it is unwise to rely overly on China as we know, not just for Japan but for everyone else as well. China does not respect any international law or conventions and will have its own agenda when it come to trade, patent and anything else for that matter and may even become isolate before we know it. And just as in elsewhere, they will also become lazy and discontented and will end up being a huge poo pit and that will happen sooner than we think. The basic fundamental economic theory from my school days was to diversify and I’m sure it is still the case today. I’m just suppressed that Japanese have waited this long!

****lack of diversification, lack of range for the US market. so what is Suzuki going to do on other makets as teh counsumer move away from small car( as they will) just simply pull out .........how about expanding teh product range to suite?

if the attack on the Japanese embassy carried out from the out side of the embassy property, then the case should be handled by te Koreans as it took place in Korean soil, really no point in bring in these Chinese into Japan, waste of air they breath!

Why are we paying any attention to these chinese carp? it is like a dog barking and teh best cause of action is just ignor

Would love to see Honda powered Lotus cars!

may me but Japanese manufactures don't like deviating from their own brand names and promote a different brand name, unlike non Japanese. GM and VW etc consist of tens of differnt brands and seems to work well. Japan you must look outside the box!

Just wish that some of the other Japanese corporation could be bit more adventurious like Toyota and taek a lead in their fields

BMW 328, Audi A4 quattro or Porsche Boxer. - yes the type of ownesr who feel the need for a Penis Enlargement and Brest enplanements

No this not the best design, Mitsubish has been lacking design directions for a quite some time now resulting in lose of market share year after year! simply due to bad managment, nothing more! very sad to see all teh hard work of dedicated loyal Mitsubishi worker not been fully uitlised!.

just like asia has China to put up with we here in europe have France!, suppose every continent has one.

It really is time that Japan looked outside the box and become more aggressive, It is time to end having minority stakes and take control of things and put ‘Japan’ back on the map

don't worry the chinese ships are lost at sea, they are using Chinese mad radar
