BREAKING - Japanese companies in China suspend operations

Tomorrow is Sept. 18. (it will be starting in just a few hours.) I expect it to be commemorated in some way this year.

Sept. 18 is the memorial day for the Japanese murder spree in Nanjing.

Hong Kong (CNN) -- The newly appointed Japanese ambassador to China has died after taking ill and collapsing in Tokyo late last week.

In a brief statement, the Japanese Foreign Ministry confirmed Shinichi Nishimiya, 60, died on Sunday after spending the weekend in hospital because of his "health condition." He collapsed just two days after being appointed to the job.

The ministry did not disclose any further details about what had happened.

It was in December fool

this demonstrates the unreliability of china
as a partner and safe haven for all international
manufacturers.

cheap labor isn't worth the price of factory
destruction.

china loses businesses, unemployment rises,
economy slides into repression, citizen unrest
roils, oppression increases, . .
war is only answer to release steam, . .
especially as poverty drives more young men
into armed services and patriotic fervor
demands retribution against japan and other
western imperialists.

the beat goes on. . .

Excellently put, xx. China is going to become more and more unstable as their economy shrinks. The real estate market is in horrific shape, and no one is really reporting it except the Australians, and many factories are dark - weak orders from the West.

What will they do to bolster it? War? hummm.

Seriously?!

China’s incoming leader re-emerged this weekend after an unexplained two-week absence, just in time to see the country he’s about to inherit consumed with rabid anti-Japanese nationalism that his Communist Party unleashed, and which the United States warned on Sunday could lead to a regional war.

Beijing’s rapidly deteriorating relationship with Tokyo will top the agenda as Xi Jinping takes over as general secretary of the Communist Party from President Hu Jintao, a promotion expected as early as next month. While Mr. Xi will continue to share power with Mr. Hu for months afterward, the stakes could scarcely be higher for his first test.

Ever heard of Pearl Harbour? Japan didn't attack the US for the hell of it, it was to stop you from intervening on the far side of the wide Pacific Ocean.

without. Using both hands to monitor the screens - and GLP:)

War the ultimate blame shifter and let's face all politicians love to shift blame.

You're not serious are you? The computer you are using was probably assembled in China, and almost all the stuff you own, to include the threads on your back, were assembled/made in China.

can you say: "WW2 payback"?

KILL THE MATRIX PCS!

Ofcource Revenge is Sweet, Always!

the Japanese will end up being China's rug bitches.

or, there are rumours that this promotion will be delayed a bit due to the current situation, dealing with japs should be top priority.

amount of shit is hitting the fan during the last season of 2012.

Yo! China! astounding job you folks have done since 1990! keep up the good work!

ALL commercial products have big mark ups. MANY things people happily pay and arm and a a leg for cost pennies to make.

Yo China! Yeah, keep the slave labor going! Good job, fellas!!

I wonder how or if this will affect Apple's iPhone 5 production and back orders?

I just saw a tourist bus in London when i was coming home. Full of Asian tourists, and there was a big banner on the side of the bus. In Korean and English."Dokdo belongs to South Korea".

Sounds like its not just the Chinese getting pissed off.

Virtual bag

China is CRASHING!

China has still got a few kinks to work out of the system,
but they are making astounding progress.

That is what should happen. Of course what will likely happen is that the stuff starts to get manufactured in Mexico again. <start sarcasm> Good ol' NAFTA to the rescue. <end sarcasm>

it is astounding what Americans did to fight on 2 war-fronts
in WW2. (against two of the awesomest war machines of your
worst night mares)

Yeah it was just the Americans

God BLESS the Japanese...they have been though so much :(:hf::hf:

I think China has revealed it's true face.

Western companies dismantling their own manufacturing sectors to save a buck on cheap child labor are traitors IMO.

But it wouldn't take long to re-industrialize our own manufacturing sectors. So I say fuck them and their cheap, crappy goods.
