Nissan Motor Co.’s former top lawyer, who led an internal investigation into alleged financial misconduct by Carlos Ghosn, said he endured retaliation, demotions and even surveillance of his family after questioning the integrity of the probe. Former Global General Counsel Ravinder Passi, speaking for the first time about the fallout from the arrest of Nissan’s celebrated ex-chairman, describes a corporate culture rife with fear, intrigue and reprisals for those who step out of line.

It’s no different than American courts and corporations. Corporate law is far more complicated than you’re capable of understanding. It’s very difficult to pin wrongdoing on individuals in the company unless there is specific evidence of specific crimes. It’s the same in Japan.

@hiddentreasures3646 Год назад

@@HCG No, you are wrong. I'm a lawyer and have lived/worked in Japan for 27 years. There was no evidence of any crimes by Ghosn or Passi, yet they were incarcerated/harassed. The police didn't do any investigation they just sandbagged the gaijin because that's what they were told to do by the Japanese executives at Nissan. That's how a Confucianist system works, not by the rule of law but by the respect and obedience to the elite. Gaijin can't be elite in the Japanese system, so they are easy targets for racist Japanese.

Fun fact, in japan 97% of trials end in convictions, so everyone takes plea deals. Because you can't fight the japan legal system. Once you are accused you are guilty no matter how rich or famous you are there's no way out of it. Japan is actually kind of scary in some ways. In America people take plea deals for similar reasons but the judge does not tell you you're guilty the moment you walk into the courtroom, and if you choose to fight in court you have decent odds if you are innocent. Especially if you have money.

The result: Honda had three meetings with Nissan executives and Honda came out of the last meeting stating that they would NOT be able to fix the internal problems at Nissan.

Plus the fact that they can hold you in solitary confinement for months and interrogate you without a lawyer for 16hrs each day, its why most convictions are from people being pressured to give a confession, not from a plea deal or from having a fair trial, but from confessions made under severe duress.

Anybody who has worked for Japanese for any length of time knows how true the allegations against Nissan and by extension corporate Japan are. The concept of truth and fairness is always subordinate to the authority and success of the corporation while anyone who dares to stick up for reality or raises obvious questions is a protruding nail that must be hammered down swiftly lest their viewpoint gain any traction. It is a deeply corrupt society on that level not withstanding Japan's many other cultural charms.
