car the japanese carmakers french partner renault is meanwhile keeping going on as chief executive at least temporarily naming an interim c.e.o. just yesterday a major rift is threatening to open between the two companies endangering the profitable alliance the french and japanese economy ministers even met today over the matter. it was an equally awaited decision in tokyo and around the world for hours nissen's top executives held consultations with their c.e.o. hero to a psych hour then it became clear go and must leave his position as chairman of the site is expected to be his temporary successor. carstone has clones from the plush surroundings of his executive suite to a spartan cell behind the walls of this tokyo jail rumors that management was behind his fall from grace spread like wildfire. it's a source of coup de tat by nissan those who didn't like him tonight's him internally to make him full. carlos ghosn is one of the most successful also company bosses of all time in one thousand nine hundred six he began restructuring struggling french carmaker ran zero three years later

point of view, he was seen as the japanese point of view, he was seen as a the japanese point of view seen as a bit of a hero, very iconic figure who basically rejuvenated nissan from the link of its ba n kru ptcy nissan from the link of its bankruptcy back in 1997, so it is very negative feeling and i think this is also a very strong characteristic of a western type of ceo embezzlement, because it is one's and well. many japanese felt that he was in a sense japanese in the sense that he would care for the company more than himself, but that has been shattered over recent days, it isa has been shattered over recent days, it is a bit ofa has been shattered over recent days, it is a bit of a shocker injapan. isa it is a bit of a shocker injapan. is a huge shock because he has been such a huge player in the global car industry for decades, i have interviewed carlos ghosn myself, but interesting to see the late press conference in tokyo, the nissan ceo h i roto conference in tokyo, the nissan ceo hiroto saikawa, who was talking about maybe he had too much power and there was too little ov

so, the japanese forces killed lots of local people, you know? war, how japanese do you think most people feel here? >> masahide: there's a fundamental difference between japanese culture and okinawan culture. japanese culture is warrior culture. but okinawan culture is absence of militarism. okinawan people are happy-go-lucky people. >> anthony: do you think that easy going, um, that reputation, that tradition of, uh, being happy-go-lucky. do you think that this has led to okinawans being taken advantage of? i mean, for instance, uh, the u.s. military bases. okinawa is 1% of the landmass of japan, and yet what percentage of the military bases are here on okinawa? almost all of them. okinawa seems to be asked to make a lot of sacrifices, uh, for the mainland. will that ever stop? >> masahide: you are talking about nimby. >> anthony: not in my backyard? >> masahide: yes, yes. in chipotle's kitchen, you won't find any artificial ingredients, freezers or microwaves. cause our kitchen's for, you know, cooking. real ingredients, real flavor. chipotle.

is this all a little strange the japanese don't sound like they're getting their way in this alliance they arrest the head of the alliance. well with go and talk of a merger is certainly gone and while it's not quite as easy as just getting in the rest japanese prosecutors. wouldn't hold him for this long if they were on at least looking very deep into this but a couple of things do look somewhat suspicious first of all all of this misconduct hasn't been noticed for so many years very very very strange second of all when the news came out and even before that it was an internal investigation for months but no really seemed very surprised about all this when the news came out or the allegations came out on monday also. and then we have the c.e.o. of nissan handpicked successor from going himself and he's really gone ballistic on the legacy of dollars really not had anything good to say about him speaking about too much authority and one person and speaking about the dark side of the golden era so all of that does seem a little bit like power play and in the meat that the french are try

they were way ahead of that and the japanese and the pacific invaded the places that we used to get ourubber from. it is a way of teaching people geography and it was certainly true in that case. the scientists got out of their maps anmath and figured out thet place to get rubber was the amazon. 50,000 were recruited but you have to say where people were very poor and what degree of the well goes into being a volunteer for anything. and these 50,000 soldiers harvested rubber in the amazon. 30,000 of them died from malaria and those that made relationships survived they were more likely to survive because local people knew about the medicines and that sort of thing. so these are all important resources. the geography was also very important. i'm probably going to do this backwards. now they are only the distance between chicago and la. so when the nazis started being very powerful in north africa. the operation is called operatiooperation rather becausy also thought they might have to take that part of brazil ticket of natural resources. was his last name. when he was born in peru as was
