PRIME MINISTER OF JAPAN LEAVES FOR UNITED STATES, GERMANY FOR SUMMITS AMID SECURITY CONCERNS - TOKYO JAPAN

PRIME MINISTER OF JAPAN LEAVES FOR UNITED STATES, GERMANY FOR SUMMITS AMID SECURITY CONCERNS - TOKYO JAPAN 

@Jackie San


Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida left for Washington on Wednesday to attend a NATO summit to confirm cooperation with the alliance in addressing the increasingly severe security challenges posed by Russia and China.


During his five-day overseas trip through Sunday, Kishida is also slated to visit Germany for talks with Chancellor Olaf Scholz, with economic security likely to top the agenda. The two leaders plan to hold a joint press appearance after their meeting.


"I would like to take this opportunity to reaffirm a sustainable cooperative relationship between NATO and its Indo-Pacific partners," Kishida told reporters before leaving Tokyo.


Based on the idea that the security of the Indo-Pacific region and Europe is inseparable, Tokyo has been working to strengthen its relations with NATO in recent years, along with other like-minded countries that share fundamental values such as democracy.


Although Japan is not a member of NATO, Kishida is scheduled to join its summit for the third consecutive year to demonstrate Japan's solidarity with the trans-Atlantic alliance against the backdrop of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which started in February 2022.


In a speech at the summit, Kishida is set to call upon NATO members to deepen their involvement in the Asia-Pacific region, where China has stepped up its military assertiveness and North Korea has repeatedly launched ballistic missiles, Japanese officials said.


On the sidelines of the three-day summit, which kicked off Tuesday to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the alliance, the leaders of Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand and NATO are poised to meet, Kishida said.


The four nations in the Indo-Pacific region, collectively called IP4, are also arranging to hold a gathering in which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will participate, he added.


The NATO summit will be held amid intensifying "information warfare." According to sources close to the matter, a large amount of false information has been spread by Russia on its war in Ukraine and by China on its military drills near Taiwan, a self-ruled democratic island Beijing claims as its own territory.


In Washington, meanwhile, Kishida said he will hold bilateral talks with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who took office last week after his Labour Party ended 14 years of Conservative rule in a general election, and South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol.


On Friday, Kishida will travel to Berlin to meet with Scholz. They are expected to exchange views on economic security issues, including a growing concern over China's overproduction of electric vehicles, solar panels and other key products, the officials said.


Japan and Germany agreed on a wide range of cooperation during their first high-level intergovernmental talks when Scholz visited Tokyo in March 2023. In the same year, Japan ceded its status as the world's third-largest economy to Germany.


On the security front, earlier this year, the two countries signed the acquisition and cross-servicing agreement, or ACSA, which simplifies the process of sharing food, fuel and ammunition between the Japan Self-Defense Forces and the German military.

6 PEMBUNUH ZULFARHAN KE TALI GANTUNG, SUHAKAM MAHUKAN KEADILAN KE ATAS PEMBUNUH

6 PEMBUNUH ZULFARHAN KE TALI GANTUNG, SUHAKAM MAHUKAN KEADILAN KE ATAS PEMBUNUH 

@Jackie San

HUKUMAN GANTUNG SAMPAI MATI dijatuhkan terhadap enam bekas pelajar Universiti Pertahanan Nasional Malaysia (UPNM) kerana membunuh Pegawai Kadet Laut Zulfarhan Osman Zulkarnain dibantah Suruhanjaya Hak Asasi Manusia (Suhakam).


Perkara itu diluahkan menerusi satu kenyataan pada Khamis dengan hukuman sedemikian diangap bukan penyelesaian yang adil mahupun berkesan.


“Walaupun kami dapat merasakan kesedihan dan keperitan keluarga mangsa serta mengiktiraf tahap keseriusan jenayah itu, Suhakam tegas dengan pendirian menentang penggunaan hukuman mati.


"Keputusan Mahkamah Rayuan Selasa lepas ialah peristiwa yang menyedihkan dalam sejarah kehakiman negara," katanya.


Tambahnya, hukuman mati tidak memberi peluang kepada pesalah menjalani pemulihan dengan ia diyakini mampu mengubah pesalah menjadi anggota masyarakat yang bertanggungjawab dan menyumbang kepada masyarakat.


"Pendekatan ini bukan sahaja menangani punca kelakuan ganas, tetapi juga membantu mencegah kejadian sama berulang dengan menggalakkan persefahaman, empati dan tanggungjawab sosial dalam kalangan pesalah.


"Sehubungan itu, Suhakam menggesa kerajaan mempertimbangkan semula penggunaan hukuman mati, sebaliknya berusaha ke arah membentuk sistem keadilan yang adil dan berperikemanusiaan," katanya.


Terdahulu, Mahkamah Rayuan pada Selasa menjatuhkan hukuman gantung sampai mati terhadap enam bekas penuntut Universiti Pertahanan Nasional Malaysia (UPNM) selepas mereka didapati bersalah membunuh Pegawai Kadet Laut, Allahyarham Zulfarhan Osman Zulkarnain pada tujuh tahun lalu.


Panel tiga hakim terdiri daripada Datuk Hadhariah Syed Ismail, Mohamed Zaini Mazlan dan Datuk Azmi Ariffin membuat keputusan sebulat suara membenarkan rayuan pihak pendakwaan untuk mengembalikan semula pertuduhan.


Allahyarham Zulfarhan dilaporkan diserang tanpa henti selama dua hari, dari 21 hingga 22 Mei 2017, kerana didakwa mencuri komputer riba.


Pakar patologi, Dr Salmah Arshad sebelum ini memberi keterangan bahawa Zulfarhan mengalami 90 kecederaan di seluruh badannya, dengan lebih 80 peratus badannya melecur sebelum disahkan meninggal dunia di Hospital Serdang pada 1 Jun 2017.

@Jackie San


PUTRAJAYA MALAYSIA: Tiada apa yang dapat menggambarkan perasaan ibu bapa kepada penuntut Universiti Pertahanan Nasional Malaysia (UPNM) Pegawai Kadet Laut Zulfarhan Osman Zulkarnain sebaik enam 'pendera' dijatuhi hukuman gantung sampai mati oleh Mahkamah Rayuan, hari ini.


Sebaik selesai prosiding yang berlangsung lebih tiga jam itu, Zulkarnain Idros, 59, dan Hawa Osman, 60, terus keluar dari mahkamah dan melakukan sujud syukur.


Mereka dilihat menangis dan menadah tangan syukur kerana apa yang diimpikan selama ini supaya enam pesalah itu diheret ke tali gantung tercapai.


"Keadilan terhadap anak saya kini terbela, kami bersyukur kepadaMu ya Allah," jerit Hawa.


Sementara itu, Zulkarnain berkata, keputusan hari ini adalah keadilan buat anaknya yang sudah pergi menemui Ilahi dalam keadaan menyayat hati.


"Kami mungkin akan buat kenduri doa selamat untuk keputusan ini," katanya ditemui selepas prosiding.


Ditanya keadaannya ketika mendengar alasan penghakiman dibacakan Hakim Mahkamah Rayuan, Zulkarnain mengakui dia dan isteri menangis sebaik mendengar keputusan.


"Anak kami cukup menderita apabila diseksa dengan kejam, banyak yang kita tidak tahu selama ini, akhirnya kami dapat dengar dengan jelas apa yang dilakukan mereka terhadap arwah," katanya.


Menurutnya, mereka sekeluarga bersyukur kepada Allah SWT kerana memakbulkan doa dan berterima kasih kepada rakyat Malaysia mengikuti perkembangan kes itu yang sudah lama mendesak supaya hukuman mati dikenakan ke atas pesalah.


"Terima kasih kepada barisan Timbalan Pendakwa Raya yang begitu hebat hingga dapat membuktikan adanya niat membunuh.


"Saya ucapkan terima kasih kepada hakim Mahkamah Rayuan yang membuat keputusan tepat dan mengembalikan kepada hukuman mati," katanya.


Katanya, bagaimanapun perjuangan mereka tidak terhenti hari ini kerana dimaklumkan semua pesalah itu akan membuat rayuan di Mahkamah Persekutuan.


"Saya dimaklumkan dalam masa dua hingga tiga minggu kes ini akan ke Mahkamah Persekutuan," katanya.


Terdahulu, Mahkamah Rayuan menjatuhkan hukuman gantung kepada enam bekas penuntut UPNM kerana membunuh Zulfarhan Osman, tujuh tahun lalu.


Mereka ialah Muhammad Akmal Zuhairi Azmal, Muhammad Azamuddin Mad Sofi, Muhammad Najib Mohd Razi, Muhammad Afif Najmudin Azahat, Mohamad Shobirin Sabri dan Abdoul Hakeem Mohd Ali yang kesemuanya kini berusia 28 tahun.


Panel tiga hakim yang diketuai Datuk Hadhariah Syed Ismail membuat keputusan itu secara sebulat suara selepas membenarkan rayuan pendakwaan untuk mengembalikan semula tuduhan bunuh terhadap mereka mengikut Seksyen 302 Kanun Keseksaan.


Sebelum ini keenam-enam perayu yang juga responden dalam rayuan itu dihukum penjara 18 tahun kerana menyebabkan kematian tanpa niat terhadap arwah Zulfarhan Osman mengikut Seksyen 304(a) Kanun Keseksaan.

POPULATION IN JAPAN FALLS FOR 15TH YEAR IN A ROW - TOKYO JAPAN

POPULATION IN JAPAN FALLS FOR 15TH YEAR IN A ROW - TOKYO JAPAN

@Jackie San


Japan’s total population marked the 15th straight year of decline, according to government data released Wednesday, dropping by more than a half-million people as the population ages and births remain low.


Births in Japan hit a record low of 730,000 last year. The 1.58 million deaths last year were also a record high. Japan's population was 124.9 million as of Jan 1.


The data released by the Internal Affairs Ministry also showed that the 11% increase in foreign residents helped their population surpass 3 million for the first time. They now make up nearly 3% of the total population and are mostly of working age from 15 to 64.


Surveys show that younger Japanese are increasingly reluctant to marry or have children, discouraged by bleak job prospects, the high cost of living — which rises at a faster pace than salaries — and a gender-biased corporate culture that adds a burden only on women and working mothers.


The government earmarked 5.3 trillion yen ($34 billion) as part of the 2024 budget to fund incentives for young couples to have more children, such as increasing subsidies for childcare and education, and is expected to spend 3.6 trillion yen ($23 billion) in tax money annually over the next three years.


Experts say the measures are largely meant for married couples who plan to have or who already have children, and don't address the growing number of young people reluctant to get married.


Japan’s population is projected to fall by about 30%, to 87 million by 2070, when four out of every 10 people will be 65 years of age or older.

TOKYO RESIDENTS SEEK TO BLOCK BUILDING OF MASSIVE DATA CENTER - TOKYO JAPAN

TOKYO RESIDENTS SEEK TO BLOCK BUILDING OF MASSIVE DATA CENTER - TOKYO JAPAN

@Jackie San


A group of residents in Tokyo said on Wednesday they were aiming to block construction of a massive logistics and data center planned by Singaporean developer GLP, in a worrying sign for businesses looking to Japan to meet growing demand.


The petition by more than 220 residents of Akishima city in western Tokyo follows a successful bid in December in Nagareyama city to quash a similar data-center plan.


The Akishima residents were concerned the center would threaten wildlife, cause pollution and a spike in electricity usage, and drain its water supply which comes solely from groundwater.


They filed a petition to audit the urban planning procedure that approved GLP's 3.63-million-megawatt data center, which GLP estimated would likely emit about 1.8 million tons of carbon dioxide a year.


"One company will be responsible for ruining Akishima. That's what this development is," Yuji Ohtake, a representative of the residents' group, told a press conference.


Global tech firms such as Microsoft, Amazon and Oracle also have plans to build data centers in Japan.


The residents estimated that 3,000 of 4,800 trees on the site would have to be cut down, threatening the area's Eurasian goshawk birds and badgers.


"It's an unbelievably negligent plan," said representative Hiroyuki Hasegawa.


The group was considering filing for arbitration to steer GLP toward reconsidering its plan, in which it is set to commence building in February, with completion by early 2029.


GLP declined to comment on the residents' action.


Japan's data center market is expected to grow 10.8% in 2027 and 7.6% in 2028 amid demand from digital transformation and cloud services, according to real estate services firm Jones Lang Lasalle.


In 2023, Japan saw a record 112 billion yen direct investment into data centre real estate, JLL's data showed.


Local opposition has also been growing over the construction of a data centre in Kashiwa city near Tokyo.

CREW FAILURE TO KEEP LOOKOUT BEHIND APRIL CHOPPER CRASH: JAPAN MINISTRY

CREW FAILURE TO KEEP LOOKOUT BEHIND APRIL CHOPPER CRASH: JAPAN MINISTRY

@Jackie San


Japan's Defense Ministry said Tuesday crew failing to keep a lookout was among the causes for two Maritime Self-Defense Force helicopters colliding in April over the Pacific in an incident that claimed the lives of all eight personnel aboard.


The two SH-60K choppers may have mistaken the distance between them and taken no maneuvers to avoid contact until they collided during a night drill to detect submarines, according to the investigation results released by the ministry.


Each of the helicopters was under the control of a ship-based officer giving instructions, and poor communication between the two officers in charge was also a factor in the collision, it said, noting they failed to take preventive steps such as ordering the choppers to fly at different altitudes.


As measures to prevent such incidents occurring in the future, the ministry will consider installing proximity warning devices, ensuring crew maintain a proper lookout, and requiring officers in charge to communicate adequately and keep the choppers at separate altitudes when necessary, it said.


"Taking the investigation results seriously, we will make every possible effort to take countermeasures, with a determination not to cause any single casualty," Defense Minister Minoru Kihara told a press conference.


Drills involving multiple SH-60Ks are allowed from Tuesday. Since early May, operations had been restricted to flights by single helicopters.


The two choppers, each carrying four MSDF members, collided on April 20 when conducting the exercise above waters around 270 kilometers east of Torishima Island, about 600 km south of Tokyo, in the Izu island chain, with the water's depth at about 5,500 meters.


The two aircraft were moving to the same target spot to drop sonar devices into the water to detect a submarine.


One of the eight crew members was confirmed dead the following day. Last month, the SDF declared the seven missing crewmen dead, while continuing its search efforts for their bodies and the fuselages of the crashed helicopters.


Flight recorder data indicated no abnormalities in either of the choppers, according to the ministry.
