Japan Trade Figures Highlight Challenges
Keywords:
Tags: Current Focus, Japan,
The trade figures for Dec. 2012 show the deteriorating picture for Japan's exporters. This supports the reasoning of the new LDP government of Shinzo Abe to keep the yen down to support exporters. Figures for the full year show Japan was able to maintain a current account surplus of 4.70 trillion yen only because of investment income from overseas. The merchandise trade deficit for 2012 was the highest since 1985.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
