Toshiba

"In the 1980s, there was a term called "Japan Bashing." It refers to the bashing of Japan carried out by the United States and European countries, which were frustrated by the strong competitiveness of Japanese products. During the Toshiba-Kokom violation incident in 1987, a member of the U.S. Congress performed a performance of smashing Toshiba products with a hammer in front of the White House. A huge trade deficit with Japan was said to be the background. However, at some point, Japan was bypassed in politics and economics. It's "Japan Passing." Now, even that word has become a thing of the past, and it has come to be ridiculed as "Japan Nothing." Japan has become a country completely ignored by the world."
