Ex-Olympus president Shimoyama says hiring foreign CEO regrettable, Gendai Business reports



Let's see, 1984-1993 was the period when all those debts were made, and the guy in charge at the time doesn't like it when finally the problem is faced head-on. NEXT.

Regrettable. I'm sure only slightly less regrettable than perpetrating massive fraud. The density of this guy's head is only slightly less than uranium, too.

[Yokohammer]

The density of this guy's head is only slightly less than uranium ...

... and not nearly as active.

[2triky]

... and not nearly as active.

Yes. Perhaps I should have been more specific...."depleted" uranium.

I guess a rapist would regret hiring a technician to fix his broken PC...after kiddie pron and videos of his crimes were found and brought to the police. But do we really care what the rapist regrets?

[IparryU]

Still A LOT more to get fixed before it is... fixed.

No Yak involvement? haha, yeah right...

[SIZE="3"]Olympus Board to Resign[/SIZE]

Entire Olympus board to resign over loss coverup

Olympus Corp. said Wednesday all of its current board members will step down and new independent committees will determine the specific involvement of former and current executives in the company's coverup of huge losses.

And this, of course (they'll never back down on this one):

Takayama said Olympus' assessment of former President and CEO Michael C. Woodford being "too selfish" has not changed.

"Too selfish" ... these Oly execs have a highly refined sense of irony ...

Ahh...a crucial, and accurate, change, and words chokonen would do well to live by, though it sounds like he's been doing a pretty good job of dodging those lemur spells - until now.

well... if you are exporting her home to meet the fam.... make sure she is 18... remember that the US of A will put your ass in the can and label you a pedophile (not a cute teddy bear like pedobear...)

Catone...schoolgirl, g-cups, loose sox....no straight man would be able to resist what has hopped in my lap. Speaking of dodging things, I had to dodge a purse the other day....because, of course, all the older lemurs I have been turning down have taken the high road. "18?!!! That's illegal!!!!" and my personal fav. "She'll turn 30 too!!!" or did they mean 32? That seems to be the deal breaker for most J-d00ds. Of course, the purse came flying at me after I said " She'll be 30 in 12 years, you'll be 30 in 2 years and 40 in 12 years, your point?"

Good thing I got out of there fast, this never looks good on yah

[Yokohammer]

She'll be 30 in 12 years ...

Yup, and that's when those G-cups become knee-cups. if not sooner.

LOL, in most cases I would agree with you Yoko...nothing worse that the tennis ball in a tube sock look BUT she has apparently been doing some sort of perky boobahs pushup routine nitely since she was 14. I dunno if that's the cause but they are amazing an it's definitely not just age

Prosecutors raid Olympus over accounting scandal

By Nobuhiro Kubo and James Topham

TOKYO | Tue Dec 20, 2011 11:39pm EST

(Reuters) - Japanese prosecutors raided Olympus Corp (7733.T) and the homes of former executives on Wednesday over a $1.7 billion accounting scandal that has threatened the survival of the once-proud camera and medical equipment maker.

Tokyo prosecutors, police and financial regulators have joined forces in a rare joint investigation of the 92-year-old company, which has admitted to hiding huge investment losses via questionable M&A deals and other accounting tricks stretching back over two decades.

Public broadcaster NHK showed dozens of black-suited investigators marching double-file into an office building that houses three Olympus subsidiaries acquired under one of the loss-making schemes, in what has become one of Japan's biggest corporate scandals.

Investigations moved into high gear after a panel of experts appointed by Olympus to probe the scandal said early this month that two senior former executives masterminded the scheme with the help of investment bankers. It also found that three ex-presidents, including Tsuyoshi Kikukawa who resigned in October over the scandal, had known about the cover-up.

Japanese media said Kikukawa's residence was also included in the raid, as well as Olympus headquarters in a high-rise office district on the western edge of central Tokyo.

Olympus last week filed five years of corrected accounts, plus overdue first-half results, meeting a Tokyo Stock Exchange deadline to avoid a humiliating delisting, but revealing a much-depleted balance sheet.

Ex-CEO Michael Woodford, who blew the whistle on the scandal after being fired in October, is campaigning to get his job back, but faces long odds in his battle with current management, which is expected to get backing from its bankers for a plan to bring in outside investors to bolster the company's finances.

Olympus' shares were down 1.5 percent at 1,049 yen at the midday break, giving up early gains that extended a 16 percent surge the day before.

The shares had been under pressure as expectations of a capital raising by the company to shore up its finances stoked fears that existing shareholdings would be diluted.

But the market took a favorable view of a media report on Tuesday that Olympus plans to issue about 100 billion yen ($1.3 billion) in new shares, with high-tech blue-chips such as Sony (6758.T) and Fujifilm (6758.T) seen among possible buyers, as the focus shifted to efforts to mend the company's depleted finances, market sources said.

They had so much time after the announcement of the raid that even I would have had the time to clean my house... wash the car... build an aircraft carrier from scratch and cure cancer...

"our chief weapon is surprise..."


Really, I am sure all the original documents at Olympus and at Kikukawa's home are totally intact.
