Japanese TV networks—subsidiaries of major newspapers—operate largely as platforms for talent agencies, making their criticism of Toshiba absurdly arrogant.
Toshiba employs 190,000 Japanese citizens, and its collapse would directly damage national strength.
The author argues that Japan must save Toshiba, investigate the role of Westinghouse and its American executives, and resist foreign capital—including factions linked to Chinese secret societies—seeking to weaken Japan’s electronics industry.

Japan’s major television networks, subsidiaries of major newspaper companies, are nothing more than companies that create programs using talents from large entertainment agencies.
It is no exaggeration to say that Japan’s top-class human resources would never go to such places.
Beautiful female university students may go, but Japan’s best and brightest will not.
For such third-rate employees of television stations to speak condescendingly about Toshiba—a company that has undeniably represented Japan—is outrageous.
Even worse is their attitude of speaking as if Toshiba were a hopeless company.
Toshiba still employs 190,000 Japanese citizens.
Compare that to the number of employees your companies hire, and you will understand.
What you have done is pay enormous sums to entertainers who contribute nothing to the lives of the vast majority of Japanese people.
Let us return to the main point.
It is obvious—something President Trump would understand without being told—that Toshiba is a matter the Japanese government must rescue.
It is a giant company that has continued to employ 190,000 people.
First, Japan must investigate which company brokered Toshiba’s acquisition of Westinghouse and whether Westinghouse’s financial statements at that time were accurate.
Regarding the recent wrongdoing, preparations should already be underway to indict the American executives of Westinghouse.
In the article “Who Are You, Ms. Renhō!?” by Moe Fukada, published in the March issue of WiLL, she writes that the Taiwanese-based Hon Hai (Foxconn) chairman Terry Gou—who has close ties to certain Chinese secret-society groups—is now attempting to weaken Japan’s electronics industry.
The Japanese prosecutors must uncover what exactly happened in the United States surrounding Westinghouse—matters invisible from Japan.
Toshiba is not like those companies whose leaders contributed to Japan’s deflationary suffering while enriching themselves to become the top billionaires in Japan.
Sato, the representative director of Mizuho Financial Group, must approve a one-trillion-yen loan to Toshiba at the fastest speed in Mizuho’s history.
Under no circumstances should Japan or its people allow Toshiba’s semiconductor division to be sold to another country.
Japan, Japanese citizens, Japan’s judiciary, and Japanese politicians must recognize that the time has come for Japan to defeat evil.
Pseudo-moralism and pseudo-market principles only serve the interests of evil.
Immediately begin investigating the American management, and uncover the networks behind them.
Only then will Japan be recognized as a true leader of the world.
