As long as Japan allows for significant investments from non-Japanese, it will not happen. Why? Because western investors are focused on short-term gain. The old Japan (without influence from western interests) spent time, energy, and capital on long-term projects. Back in the day, R&D budgets were up to 20% of gross profits. That's not happening today. Don't hold your breadth...
