    Only in Japan, in other asian countries wages are going up. Perhaps that is the reason sales in jpn have been depressed for so many years.

    Why the conflicting data here ? I mean which is it ???

    "Average wages at Japanese companies with at least five employees inched down 0.6% in June from a year before to 463,013 yen"

    OR:

    "Of the total wages, scheduled pay, such as basic salary, totaled 251,177 yen"

    So which is it ??? Average monthly salarys are 463,013 yen a month or... 251,177 ???

    I mean, is this article trying to say that there are sooooo many companies with less than 5 employees that they drag the national average down from 463,000 to 251,000 ??? How 'bout some clarification out there !
