Power of Japanese Women

Below is my comment on your article of "The WASTED ASSET", Page 34　 TIME, August 29, 2005

As theTIME article pointed out, I must admit that Japanese skilled women still have lesser opportunities to get an equal footing with men in the workplace. Especially, many politicians and business executives still seem to make light of gender equality due to the long tradition and culture of “male-dominated” society in Japan.

But I strongly believe that Japanese women will be able to find their new lifestyles as well as new jobs by themselves because they have proved that they are brighter than men in many fields. Another Tomoyo Nonaka or Yuka Tanimoto will appear and penetrate the old tradition of Japan.
