I have never encountered anything like this (but I don't have a MUFJ account). You should have told them where they could stick their bank account.
|
They have been "urged" to obey the law? That will definitely solve the problem. All they need to do now is to "urge" gangsters to behave a responsible citizens and organised crime will be a thing of the past. Whoever the top-notch, elite Tokyo-graduate bureaucrat is who thought up this "urging" approach should get a promotion.
|
I wasn't aware that these daft rules would also apply to academic theses and other research works. It's common, when giving a talk at a conference, to use figures from papers and theses. As long as the work is cited correctly nobody (except the Japanese government) would complain of "copyright" infringement. If this law comes into effect it would make the holding of international conferences in Japan impossible, as everyone involved would risk arrest for "copyright" violations.
|
Why anyone would fight for control of these dumps (Libya, Yemen, Syria, Afghanistan etc.) is beyond me.
|
I wonder how many drivers who jump the red lights at that intersection the police arrest? At a guess I would say none at all.
|
I would say that the imminent possibility of the Japanese people going the way of the Dodo is a bad thing and therefore “Wrong”, wouldn't you...?
|
I'm quite relaxed about it. If they allowed dual nationality I would take it, but they don't, so I won't. Their loss.
|
These foreign workers will be forced to pay for Japanese medical insurance and therefore they will be entitled to use the medical system. This is entirely different from tourists who arrive without medical insurance.
|
They will also be forced to pay contributions towards a pension they will never receive (if they are kicked out before they reach ten years of contributions).
|
If people like the author of this article don't want non-Japanese to receive the benefits that they are forced to pay for then the obvious solution is to exempt non-Japanese from the pension and medical premiums and make them buy their own insurance before issuing them with a visa. Of course, this will never happen because the truth is that young, non-Japanese workers will be subsidising elderly, unproductive Japanese through these taxes.

But could he use chopsticks?

Abe often says the abduction issue is his top priority, but he has done nothing at all to resolve it. Abe should be talking to fat dictator Kim himself if he wants to achieve anything, but I suspect Abe doesn't really want the issue resolved at all. It's a good issue for rallying all Abe's right wing nutcase mates around.
|
Despite having talks with Corbyn, May still won't budge on anything at all. It looks like the choice will come down to leaving with no deal or repealing Article 50.
|
Trump makes it up as he goes along. Hardly the recipe for a coherent and constructive foreign policy.
|
Singapore does not have free speech. Why don't these tech companies slag off China, which is far worse?
|
Seats in a 3-3-3 configuration on a 787 is terribly uncomfortable. Even if, like me, you are not physically big, you can hardly sit back in the seat without touching the person next to you. I try to avoid flying on airlines with this seat layout as much as possible.
|
I worry his poor wife will be pushed over the edge by all the pointless, made-up "rules" she will have to follow from next month.
|
She did well to escape the persecutors and would be a fool to return to Japan and its farce of a "justice" system.
|
Didn't Trump agree a replacement for NAFTA with Mexico only last year? Now he plans to break the agreement before it even begins. This shows that there is no point making any deal with Trump as he will not uphold it.
|
If Trump is worried about illegal immigrants why doesn't he get on with building his wall? If he is concerned about drug smuggling he should punish drug users in the US more severely to limit demand.
|
A few years in jail will give this guy time to grow up.
|
If the Japanese authorities thought Ghosn had broken his bail conditions they would have arrested him in an instant. They did not do that which strongly suggests Ghosn was in compliance with his bail conditions.
|
Now that they have him locked up again, i.e. no longer on bail, it will be possible to show his pre-recorded video next week without the persecutors being able to argue he is breaching his bail conditions by "influencing" people at Nissan.
|
Assault? pluuuuueaase, it's a hair cut, it's a school, there are standards, there are uniforms, it's there to ensure all students feels and are treated equally.
|
I suggest that if the rules about long hair do not apply to girls then they should also not apply to boys. Anything else would be discrimination.
|
The prosecutors should be arrested for the theft of Ghosn's wife's passport and mobile phone. She is not a suspect and they have no right to steal her possessions. I hope the French government makes a protest about this terrible behaviour.

It's been almost nine years since Briar Stewart became principal of Rotokawa School.
|
In that time she's been proud of what she's done but says it's now time to move on.
|
Stewart will leave the school at the end of 2018 for the unknown as she hasn't yet decided what she'll be going to.
|
"I'm not retiring. It seems like a weird thing to do, resigning from something you're happy at, but I'd much rather leave on a high. I would not want to be in place where things are unhappy."
|
The position was Stewart's first principalship.
|
"I think that things do well if they get a refresh and a new person, new energy and maybe a new vision," she said.
|
"Every five years in education there's a massive refresh. If I'm going to remain am I going to be the best driver of that?"
|
She said the school would remain precious to her and she was proud of the children.
|
"I'm really proud of how our children interact with one another," she said.
|
"It will be with great sadness I leave. I've been with families going through trauma and celebrated with families."
|
She said the school had a lot of staff members who could be leaders and it was time to move over and let some of them through.
|
Stewart also leaves behind her role as president of the Rotorua Principals' Association, which she took up in 2017. A new president will be voted in when she leaves.
|
The school board of trustees is asking members of the Rotokawa School community what values and characteristics they want in a principal, as well as what is important within the school, as part of the process of hiring a replacement.
|
Stewart said it was important to consult with iwi, children and teachers so the board could feel confident in whoever was hired.
|
"All of our community have ownership of where their children are coming. By consulting with iwi and teachers and students we find out their aspirations.
|
"I think our school is really desirable."
|
Stewart will see out the rest of the year as principal.

Rueben Randle made arguably the Giants' best individual offensive play during their Week 7 27-20 win over the Dallas Cowboys.
|
New York Giants wide receiver Rueben Randle did his best impression of teammate Odell Beckham Jr. when he reeled in a one-handed, 44-yard catch in the team's 27-20 Week 7 win over the Dallas Cowboys.
|
Randle made the tremendous catch over Cowboys cornerback Brandon Carr — the same cornerback who was victimized on Beckham's famous play. Randle finished with a team-high 68 yards receiving but only two receptions.

A car bomb has gone off outside a popular restaurant in northern Baghdad, killing at least one person and injuring more than 50, eyewitnesses said.
|
The bomb exploded at lunchtime on Monday outside the Habaybna restaurant, which is located inside a three-storey building in Talibia.
|
Several cars parked on the street were set ablaze and bodies could be seen on the street. The blast was believed to have been set off by remote control.
|
The bombing came on another day of violence in Iraq after fighters opposed to the presence of foreign troops in Iraq targeted two US bases, a leading political aide and a Kurdish leader, leaving several people dead and many more injured.
|
The deadliest incident took place south of Kirkuk, when a car bomb exploded near the convoy of a Kurdish official in Tuz Khurmatu, killing at least five people and wounding 18 others, police said.
|
Muhammed Mahmoud Jigareti, of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, and several others in the convoy were hurt in the blast.
|
Meanwhile, two carloads of armed men assassinated a top aide to Iraqi Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari and his driver in Baghdad, police said.
|
Wael al-Rubaei was attacked in the main street in central Baghdad's Mansour district at about 8.15am (local time) as they were heading to work, said police Lieutenant Majid Zaki.
|
Zaki said two carloads of armed men sprayed automatic weapons fire at al-Rubaei's vehicle, killing the official and his driver.
|
The slaying follows Sunday's killing of another senior government official, Trade Ministry auditing office chief Ali Moussa.
|
State employees have been prime targets of fighters trying to disrupt the US-backed Iraqi government.
|
Earlier on Monday morning, three bombers attacked an American military base in Mosul wounding three US soldiers, and killing two Iraqis, the military said.
|
And in downtown Samarra, two bombers detonated car bombs at about 7am (local time) outside the US base, 95km north of Baghdad, Major Richard Goldenberg said.
|
Three Task Force Liberty soldiers sustained non life-threatening wounds, Goldenberg added. The Associated Press put the number of injured people at 23.
|
A third man approached the scene wearing an explosives-packed vest and was shot by soldiers, but still managed to set off his bomb, killing himself but causing no other injuries or damage, Goldenberg said.
|
US and Iraqi security forces quickly cordoned off the area, blocking all vehicle and pedestrian traffic.
|
Separately, a bomber injured four Iraqi civilians in a Sunday attack in a neighbourhood in Mosul, 360km northwest of Baghdad, the US military said in a statement.
|
Speaking to Aljazeera from Baghdad, the secretary-general of an Iraqi political movement known as the Gathering for the Sake of Iraq, Raad Mawloud Mukkhlis, urged a national dialogue and warned the government could collapse unless security is established.
|
"We are in a real state of warfare"
|
"Iraq has become an open arena for groups from inside and outside to settle their differences at the expense of Iraqis," Mukkhlis said.
|
He said an Iraqi dialogue modelled after those of South Africa and Lebanon would reduce the level of violence.
|
"We are in a real state of warfare which has not finished yet," Mukkhlis said, accusing the former interim government and the US occupation forces of being responsible for the deterioration of security.
|
"If the new government adopts the same approach as the former government, it will certainly collapse," he said.
