Abenomics, quantitative easing, fiscal policy - we know all the issues.

We're going to do the right thing for the company and our customers, all things considered.

Now the Japanese companies are more focused on that. To have two independent directors - I think it's good to have outside people look at you and think of what you could be doing better. Those are voluntary, but most of the companies told me they're going to do it. And I think it's good for them to say our returns on equity, for example, should be higher. Also, I think some could be more ambitious.

And if you're going to be a leader, you know what I ask myself? Would I want to work for you in this job? Would I let my children work for you? Would I give you this job if I wasn't there to provide oversight? If you went to run another company, would I, as an investor, invest in that company?

No one can forecast the economy with certainty.

Acting like everyone who's been successful is bad and because you're rich you're bad, I don't understand it.

I do want the tax system to be efficient and be conducive to growth, which it is not.
