Toyota Recalling 11,500 Lexus Vehicles



Japanese car maker Toyota will recollect 11,500 Lexus Vehicles in Japan and other countries markets after many people complaint about steering system in some Lexus company. This problem will really affect Lexus company‘s about 4,500 units will be recall in Japan and 7,000 in other countries.


Toyota says, this latest Lexus recall was not response to 12 consumer complaints but there have been no reports of accidents or injuries. Furthermore, it makes the LS460, LS600h, andLS460L price dropped sharply.


In my opinion, The Lexus Company must find the ways for fix this problem as soon as possible because it really affects the benefit of Lexus. Moreover, there are 12 customers complaint in Japan. Therefore, this also can affect the company name. This is the biggest problem that Lexus Company get in this year.

Shinkasen bullet train in Osaka, the western city of Japan, were restored 10 hours after crash with other train, affecting about 60,000 people including foreigner traveler. This is the biggest news in Japan today.

The service between Osaka and Himeji stations resume at 2:30 pm. After the first shinkasen had been fixed. Therefore, it made some shinkasen station resumed again. However, a total of 85 trains on the Osaka line and Tokaido line, the line that connects Tokyo with Osaka, still cannot restore, and this is the main line for Osaka.


Tatsuya Mano, a JR west official in charge of shinkansen administration came out for apologized by saying,” We are very sorry that we have caused a situation in which the train did not run from the morning at a time when many people are traveling during the summer holidays.’‘

In my opinion, there are many people that got affect from this situation. This situation is not what people would ask for, I know that no one would ever wanted this to happen. However, Government is trying so hard to fix this problem as soon as possible. People can make sure that everything will back to normal soon. I'm hoping that Japan's railway service will provide more of security system to prevent this kind of situation because there are many people depend on them.

Some Japanese students still have motivation problem



The lost of interest in school among Japanese student interest me because I have similar problem. This problem is spreading around the world because now there are a lot of entertainments to keep them busy from school and they will skip school with friends instead of study. Moreover, the high pressures from parent also make some student feel boring about education system because they do not understand the importance of school.Violence in school is the second reason why some Japanese students lost their motivation to go to school. There are concerns that school violence in Japan, which teachers say is the reason to the failure of human relations between parents and children, as well as teachers and students.



In my opinion, Japanese student have the high responsibility about their education and the Japanese education standard is in the fifth place over the world .However, I think Japan have too much entertainment for make students not interested to education. For example game, fashion and high technology.
