Based on this philosophy, the Group performs its social mission of contributing to the development of society and the economy through participation in financial and capital markets, by bringing together the fund management needs of individuals, corporations and institutional investors and the operating fund procurement needs of companies, national and local governments, public institutions, and international institutions. In carrying out this mission, in order to deepen understanding of the corporate activities of the Group, and together with all of our stakeholders to generate social value, we have started to publish an integrated report annually as a tool for dialogue. This fiscal year’s report has been restructured so as to highlight the unique values and business model that the Group has built up over the 116 years of its history. In addition, together with providing a briefing on the new Medium-Term Management Plan launched in April 2018, this report features an introduction of our efforts with regard to sustainable development goals (SDGs) that we are working on so as to contribute to the sustainable development of society as well as the sustainable growth of the Group, as is stated in our corporate philosophy. Please be sure to read through this report, and we would appreciate hearing your opinions.

    CENTER ON JAPANESE ECONOMY AND BUSINESS Working Paper Series December 2013, No. 334 Japanese Newspapers David Flath This paper is available online at www.gsb.columbia.edu/cjeb/research COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK December 10, 2013 Japanese Newspapers David Flath* Faculty of Economics,Ritsumeikan University abstract In Japan, newspapers enjoy a special exemption from antimonopoly prohibitions against resale price maintenance (suppliers’ stipulations that bar downstream firms from price discounting), but are each required to set uniform prices throughout Japan. In fact, the newspapers have rarely changed their subscription prices in recent years, and the three leading national dailies, together accounting for about half the total industry circulation, and thirteen other papers accounting for another one eighth of industry circulation, all have set exactly the same price (3,925 yen per month for combined morning-and-evening editions, and 3,007 yen per month for morning-only). The remaining local papers all set lower prices. Econometric analysis here shows that Japanese newspaper subscription prices are far below the levels that would maximize joint profit, given the newspaper content. The authorized resale price maintenance, and prohibition against prices that vary geographically, seems to have allowed only modest collusive price increases.

  • Present Scenario of South-East Asian Countries’ Newspapers to Cater Local Scientific Issues Through the Regional Languages: an Epistemological Case Study
    International Journal of Research in Advance Engineering, (IJRAE) Vol. 3, Issue 1, Jan-Feb-2017, Available at: www.knowledgecuddle.com/index.php/IJRAE Present Scenario of South-East Asian Countries’ Newspapers to Cater Local Scientific Issues through the Regional Languages: An Epistemological Case Study Prof. (Dr.) Tapati Basu1, Ratul Datta (Ph.D. Research Scholar)2 12Department of Journalism and Mass Communication, University of Calcutta, 1Senate House, 87/1, College Street, Kolkata-700 073, 2Govt Gazetted Officer, Information & Cultural Affairs Department, Govt of West Bengal, Writers’ Buildings, W.B., Kolkata-700 001, India [email protected], [email protected] Abstract: This paper contains the background of the need of the study of growing interest in local scientific issues in regional languages newspapers. Mass communication of scientific issues at local level through regional newspapers is more or less same in the South-east Asian countries, particularly in India, Thailand, Afghanistan and Pakistan. For years, mass communication through regional newspapers had been believed the most important engine for social changes, and hence this study becomes very important. Obviously the questions arise, what about the regional and local newspapers which are published regionally from those countries of South-east Asia? Is there sufficient translator in the media houses who have thorough knowledge of local language and jargons? How far those translated news is correct and not distorted? English language was taken at one hand and Dari for Afghanistan, Bangla for Bangladesh, Hindi for India, Bahasa for Indonesia, Urdu for Pakistan, Thai for Thailand, Mandarin for China, Korean for South and North Korea, Russian for Russia on the other hand.
