I was suggested to look at your home web since you are exellent and stable company. One of the causes you have a long history more than 120 years and are now is becasue of 'Our Credo', which was read in one of the books mentioned about internal control of companies.
In these years during almost 30 years after share markets in the world has been boosted very much, like in United States, the number One or the first runk of the stakeholders for the listed compnaies is group of the shareholders. In Japan, such idea has not been supported before. In Japan every company takes workers or employess as the most important for the company. The compnaies render people or workers places to realize their own ability or capability for life. This idea is still kept in a lot of compnaies in Japan. Your 'our credo'shows that interest of the shareholders lanks in the fourth. I understand that shareholders responsiblity is limited to the paid or invested money for the shares held, but at present company laws in every country has no limit at all on the maximum amount of the profit to be gained by the shareholders. We agree with you on the reasonableness on the interest to be paid to the shareholders.
