Alright, next we'd like to invite Master Kai to explain what this 82 to 0 inches in Japan actually means.
We are seeing that Sunei Takaichi is currently facing pressure, as 82 local assemblies across
Japan have submitted petitions to the central government or the Diet, demanding her cabinet
uphold the three non-nuclear principles. This is fundamentally at odds with what Sunei Takaichi
has been aiming to do, and contrary to what her cabinet has been pushing for.
Given this situation, the topic of whether her cabinet might be toppled has become a subject of
discussion. Besides that, while there was always a desire to lean on the United States,
the US dollar currently carries very high risks. Looking at Japan, we see that they've recently
announced plans to mass-produce 1-yen coins again. So, how many are they going to mint? Wow, that's a
lot, 132 million of them. I did a quick check, and 1-yen is roughly 0.2 new Taiwan dollars.
If that's the case, and while everyone is shifting toward electronic payments,
why are they suddenly minting coins?
Right, this just goes to show the massive disconnect between Japanese public opinion
and the defense policies currently being pushed by the Takaichi administration.
Actually, whether it's increasing the military budget or easing past restrictions,
such as sending troops abroad or participating in overseas military operations,
the impact hasn't been that significant yet, so the true public sentiment in Japan hasn't fully manifested.
Ever since Sunei Takaichi came to power, one of her senior military advisors at the prime minister's office
once publicly stated that Japan should develop nuclear weapons.
And recently, the head of her defense agency, who is essentially like a minister of defense,
also publicly stated in an interview that we should abandon the three non-nuclear principles.
Does that mean you are moving toward nuclear armament?
That direction is already very, very clear, and it is happening with great urgency.
When you talk about urgency, first of all, Japan has a pacifist constitution.
Why would you need nuclear weapons? Right, you have a pacifist constitution,
and you have renounced the use of war as a means to achieve national policy goals.
That is the very foundation of your constitution.
Yet, without even amending the constitution, you are pushing for this large-scale militarization,
a new form of militarism, and even advocating for the development or possession of nuclear weapons.
I feel this creates a massive gap between the government and the majority of Japanese
citizens who are accustomed to peace, enjoy it, and desire to keep it.
So, this 82-to-zero vote, I believe, serves as a wake-up call for Japanese politics,
especially for these conservatives in the liberal Democratic Party, particularly the right-wingers.
However, I doubt they will truly take this to heart. They will likely continue to act on their own accord.
In reality, Japan's push for militarization has already drawn strong reactions from mainland China and Russia.
Furthermore, China's economic boycotts against Japan and the embargo on rare-earth elements
have already caused a significant crisis for the Japanese economy.
Even under these circumstances, Jinjiro Kaneko actually suggested abandoning and re-evaluating the
three non-nuclear principles, aiming for the path to becoming a nuclear-armed state.
From this trajectory, you can see just how extreme these far-right Japanese politicians really are.
As for the decision to bring back the 1-yen coin, I really cannot fathom what they are thinking.
It goes against the trends of the times. For example, in Taiwan, I use an easy card
everywhere because I don't want to carry too much loose change in my pockets.
In Taiwan, many vending machines won't even accept 1 or 5 dollar coins anymore.
Here in Taiwan, we really don't use that many coins.
Given how coins are viewed now, you can imagine how conservative the Japanese government is and how
disconnected they are from current mainstream developments by churning out such a massive
quantity of 132 million coins.
Of course, perhaps, how should I put it, perhaps it's because the old coins truly needed to be
replaced, or maybe their service life had simply come to an end.
However, this shows that Japan is not only outdated in its actual practices regarding
currency and payment tools, but also outdated in its very mindset.
Their obsession with the concept of physical currency, still mass producing and churning
it out in such large quantities, is truly disconnected from the mainstream of the current international
society.
So, you can see why Japan, over these years under conservatism, has reached the point it is at today.
It's because their mindset is conservative and stagnant.
They are living in the past, perhaps even the Meiji Restoration era.
Therefore, it's clear that the country's future is not very bright.
Next, we will ask General Chong about the situation between Trump and Iran, because what has Trump said now?
He said that the US will bomb and destroy Iran's bridges or power plants, and no matter what you do,
I will bomb you back.
Well, for now, Iran has responded even more aggressively.
They said they will stop even a single drop of oil from being exported, meaning they are once again
targeting the Strait of Hormuz for control.
Besides that, there is now a conflict between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia.
We see that the Houthi organization used multiple ballistic missiles, cruise missiles,
and drones to directly strike two Saudi Arabian oil tankers, and it was reported that these two tankers caught fire.
The Houthis have now forced nearly 10 ships to turn back, which is why Neutankin analyzed that
another battlefield has now been opened.
That's right.
As you can see, the renewed conflict between Saudi Arabia and the Houthi rebels might lead to an
even worse situation regarding the tensions between Saudi Arabia and the Houthi forces.
With the Houthi rebels now directly involved in the attacks,
the Middle East situation has reached a new turning point.
With this outbreak of fighting, oil prices, which were thought to be stabilizing,
have now surged by 4%.
Yes, Trump's strikes against Iran, whether by aerial bombardment or targeting Iranian military bases,
especially those along the coast and near the Strait of Hormuz,
those military outposts and staging grounds are all targets for the US.
