Pale Green Horse & Government Evil: Japan breaks own laws and destroys Nuclear Disaster meeting records!
I looked and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.
The Japanese news media agency, NHK, has discovered that the Japanese Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency has destroyed (or never kept) records of at least 21 nuclear disaster meetings, in direct violation of Japanese law!
NHK discovered the illegal act when it demanded to see the public records of the meetings. What NHK got was a list of items discussed at the meetings, but no detailed minutes.
NHK was told no records of the actual discussions were kept. NHK says Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency officials told them they were too busy to keep records!
The meetings took place after the General Electric designed Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant went critical following the 11 March 2011, earthquake and tsunamis.
Also missing are records of government meetings with the operator of Fukushima Daiichi, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCo).
NHK says they wanted to see the documents because they were part of the government’s disaster reaction decision making. Both the Japanese government, and TEPCo, have been accused of dragging their feet, taking too little action in dealing with the ongoing nuclear disaster.
Corporate Incompetence: Olympus now under investigation by the British, FBI also invloved. Olympus officials beg banks for more money
Scandal with Japan’s Olympus only gets deeper. Now the United Kingdom’s Serious Fraud Office (SFO) confirmed they are investigating.
The SFO, located in a building known as Elm House, says they’re getting help from a former Olympus CEO, Michael Woodford. He’s already turned over corporate documents he kept after he was fired from Olympus last month. The SFO also confirmed that the U.S. FBI is involved.
This comes as Olympus held an emergency meeting with 40 banks, to essentially beg them for more money.
According to NHK, Olympus officials swear they’re actually going to make money this year, however overall sales are slightly down from last year. Olympus stated they will release their accounting books by the government ordered date of December 14. They will also reveal who’s responsible for the huge losses from securities investments, as well as buyouts of other companies.
NHK gave no indication of how the bank officials reacted to the emergency meeting with Olympus.
Corporate Incompetence: United States involved with Olympus scandal, Olympus to be delisted from stock market
Japan’s NHK reporting that the incredibly bad investment deals Olympus made, were influenced by a U.S. financial advisory company.
The company was created in 1997 by former Japanese stock brokers. The company charged Olympus outrageous mediation fees for their advise on taking over other companies. Reports say at least U.S.$687 million in mediation fees were paid to what could be a bogus company.
Olympus officials are said to have spent a lot of time visiting their U.S. based, but Japanese run, financial advisory company.
The Japanese Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission has ordered Olympus to present accurate financial reports by December 14. If they do not, Olympus will be delisted from the Tokyo Stock Exchange. If you have Olympus stocks, sell, sell, sell!
