Media Users: Motegi and Development Revolution

media users: One of the missions Motegi has been tasked with spearheading is a vague but apparently key policy pledge of Abe's new Cabinet called hitozukuri kakumei a term that can be literally translated as human development revolution, according to The Japan Times. The bizarre term has puzzled Japanese social media users, who wondered what the government means by revolution and what exactly Motegi has been asked to do. So far, we all have been on a one-track career of getting an education, graduating from school, getting a job at one company and then retiring, said Toshimitsu Motegi, who was appointed to his post in the Aug. 3 Cabinet reshuffle. ; Now, we need to change, Motegi told a joint interview with media outlets including The Japan Times. The official English translation of the term human resources development, however, is humbler and somewhat easier to grasp. This happens against the aforementioned one-track background, where most workers continue with a single company for decades, since Japan's labor market has less liquidity than many other countries, until their eventual retirement at around 65 years old. Currently, most major firms hire a number of graduates fresh out of university each spring, while also employing far fewer midcareer workers. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
