Japanese billionaire Tadashi Yanai says the image of America is crumbling
In recent weeks, the company’s operations in U.S. cities such as New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Los Angeles have all been hit hard as protests have erupted across the country over George Floyd’s death, Yanai said.
“It shows how much the American spirit has been destroyed. The political situation is unbearable. It is not working,” he added. “There should be a stronger desire to take positive civic action when there are social problems. It is wrong to constantly ignore them like some do now.”
“What is important? What is irrelevant? Why are we doing business? We are being asked these fundamental questions,” he remarked. “As a company, we wonder why we exist.”
