[Aepsilons]

And who said Japan was hostile to foreigners? LOL!

-------------------


TOKYO: Yahoo Japan has said that SoftBank chief executive Masayoshi Son would step down as its chairman in June, to be succeeded by SoftBank president Nikesh Arora.

Son will stay on as a director at Yahoo Japan, in which SoftBank owns a stake of about 36%.

"Nikesh Arora brings with him a broad global perspective as well as extensive knowledge of internet businesses," Yahoo Japan said in a statement.

SoftBank this month appointed Arora, a former Google executive, as president, and named him as a potential successor to Son, the billionaire founder of the telecoms conglomerate.

He's the type of executive leadership we want, someone who isn't afraid to think 'outside' of the proverbial box.

Hopefully we can bring in more leaders from abroad that will help bring in the international thinking model in Japanese companies.

I hope for more Japanese-South Asian collaboration in the economic sector. Since , as it seems, this is where the future is....

I think the benefit of bringing in Indian business leaders is tried and tested. Even some of the leaders in the used car industry are actually Pakistanis , specially from the region of Sindh. Sindhi men from Pakistan who live in Japan are ruthless, efficient, and very successful businessmen. I known of one man who lives in Sapporo City in Hokkaido Prefecture and he owns , literally, dozens of used auto shops in the prefecture. Its like a mini empire, family owned as well. The man and his family are ridiculously rich.

Of the surname 'Zaidi'

Very down to earth man, you'd think he was your neighbor, not a multi-billionaire, LOL.

Besides most major corporations are now truly global in nature. By shuffling leadership teams, you bring different perspectives from other cultures that you can use.

Indeed !

The drivers of growth , in this century, will be South & Southeast Asia.

India's 1.2 billion, Pakistan's 180 million, Bangladesh's 156 million, Sri Lanka's 30 million, Nepal's 25 million, Indonesia's 250 million, The Philippines 105 million, Vietnam's 95 million, Thailand's 65 million, Myanmar's 60 million, Malaysia's 30 million, Cambodia's 15 million, Laos' 6 million, ---- combined a MASSIVE MARKET of over 2.217 Billion people.

MASSIVE.

That's what you have concluded but not what I intended to say.
If I had to say China,India and Japan then I might as well have named them.Why do you have to always assume that every Indian is anti-Pakistan??
