​@@CockatooDude ① hydrogen fluoride ② Fluorinated polyimide ③ Resist (semiconductor fabrication) These products are not something you can find in any market around the world. Only Japan can make them with HIGH purity. *Important* These are also key chemicals to produce nuclear weapons. Due to the recent North Korean missile activities, Japan made any countries to import these 3 chemicals have clear certifications and registrations, but they did not ban any of chemicals to export. Japan did what they have to do, but Koreans took this something personal.

[@115islandscompass6]

According to a newspaper article, On 2 November(←sorry it’s October is correct), export of hydrogen fluoride to SK Hynix was ​​already permitted. According to the news reporting this export license, it seems that it is taking time because Korean importers struggle with submiting all the required documents that were not necessary when South Korea was on the white list. Similar to this declaration, I think that export declaration of hydrogen fluoride to South Korea that can be confirmed as import for semiconductor manufacturing purposes etc. will be allowed. Japan is not restricting on export hydrogen fluoride, but only strictly controls strategic materials under the international law.

This video is mentioning the main cause of the trade war is because south Korea's "inadequate management" of the chemicals. That is NOT the cause, rather is merely an excuse Japanese government gave after trade war started. The real issue that started the trade war is when Korean Supreme Court ruled that two of Japanese companies need to compensate several South Korean citizens for the forced labors during the years Japan imperialized South Korea. Japanese government did not like this decision, and tried to force South Korean government to alter the supreme court decision by restricting major components of semi-conductors - which Korea's major companies (such as Samsong) need for making cell phones. Since using this as a reason for trade restriction is against the rule under WTO trade agreement, they had to come up with different reasons why they are starting the trade war. That's where their made-up reason of South Korean government's "inadequate management" of chemicals comes in. South Korean government has already openly talked about this matter and asked the Japanese government about in what standard the management was inadequate. Until today, Japanese government still has not given an straight answer to that question, despite the fact that they are using that reason as a main cause of trade restriction. If whomever made this video looked up just a little bit more in to the subject, they cannot be making this major mistake in their summary.

Abe, who frequently says "There is no evidence the victims were forced," obviously was not interested in the demands of the victims. So yeah, it is indeed a clear propaganda that Japan feels sorry about the victims. I don't know why they added Abe's totally fake apology in that video.

@KIX_LOVE You mean I am seeing the issue from the perspective of facts and truth, instead of Japanese right wing's propaganda. South Korea has done nothing other than demand that Japan apologize to and compensate the victims. Japan should do what is right and recognize its past wrongdoings. Also, why the hell do so many of you Japanese right wings believe Moon is trying to unite Korea under communist dictatorship? That is the most messed up, baseless conspiracy theory, like, ever. I guess I'm not surprised, considering right wings worldwide do nothing but spread conspiracy theories, like how American rights claim Obama was a Kenyan Muslim.

I didn't know it was far left to think justice should be given! You asked, what does Japanese government do every day? What do you mean? I'm sure they run the country; that is their job, after all. Why do you even ask that? What I do know is that you support the Japanese right wing's propaganda, instead of the simple truth. I do have to applaud you for figuring out I am bilingual. How did you figure that out? I am seriously curious. But you are wrong about me pretending to travel a lot, because I don't. & I do not have many friends, I only have a few and I see them a lot.

@up Up “ And most of japanese dont know what is really happening here.... please learn a real history and get more logical information from the perspective of law and agreement.

No one in Korea can change this verdict and no one can deliberately intervene to the verdict.” And why are the koreans blindly taking part in the boycott then? “But Japanese government just blame Korea for the verdict... and they started trade wars.” Ok. Since exactly when did Japan start a “trade war” with south korea? “BMW is well known for having used forced labors during the war and they officially admitted those wrong doings. Why Japanese companies can not admit that? Why does Japanese government openly prevent those companies from a justful response?” Do you really believe that Jaoanese are so mannered and kind that they had never done unjustice things to korean laborers?” What exactly is the unjust that was done? What does it have anything to do with Japanese people being “well mannered and kind”? “I saw many interviews from old Japanese politicians who were mentioning that when they were young they actually saw many forced laborers from Korea who were bleeding and were full of scars on their back carrying heavy stuffs... And there are many official papers that those companies postponed the payment of wages and actually did not pay the money to laborers.” Sounds exactly like what the average Japanese laborers went through. Looks like the ethnic koreans were treated just as equal to the ethnic Japanese. “ Koreans want Japanese to learn these histories not to humiliate Japanese but to have trustful friendship with Japanese. If we dont share same value and memories how can we be ever friends and can work together?” Umm, Japanese people do learn about this part of history. Not only in schools but from grandparents who actually went through this back in the day. If korea wants to be friends with Japan, how about starting off with not boycotting for no reason? And possibly quit trying to rewrite history and claiming Japanese territories and cultures? “Japanese are not naturally bad or evil.” No shit. No one is naturally bad or evil. The fact that you even have to point this out says alot about you. “But there are some toxic social culture in Japan which make japanese ignorant to others' pain. Please i beg to Japanese. Please wake up” My grandfather went to Japan to study when he was young during the war. There were some programs that Japanes government hired middle schoolers from Korea to work in Japanese factories during the day time. And instead of paying them enough money they offered a school program to those kids including my grandpa during the night time after the works in the factories. I think my grandpa was really lucky.

If it cannot do it, it must be excluded from White country.” 　South Korea "It doesn't matter what you do, export it." 　Japan "There is no explanation so I will exclude it from White Country. Please explain it from now on before importing." 　South Korea “Japan is harassing” 　Japan"????????" I don't think reselling weapons is a good idea.

What is Japan aiming for about Korea? Once the drunken Japanese policymakers have advocated to take Dokdo as a military. Recent news on South Korea's weapons development and third-party assessments of South Korea are favorable. In addition to Japan, Japan is the only country in the world that has an anti-Korean book section if it has a high level of popularity. As such, it is the hope of the Japanese to imagine that Japan is a favorable assessment globally. These things are similar to the people of any country who are selfish. It is not a government that teaches objective truth in Japan, but only Asahi Shimbun is in the media. As long as Japan has a Japanese government or media that has given up objective evaluation of Korea, it is difficult for Japan to become an internationally moral country. Self-satisfaction can always be there, but the political use of the country is not high in popular is not high. Only the Japanese don't know. The Japanese say they helped Korea, but Koreans don't think so at all. Technology was also introduced, but the price was paid. Japan has stolen technology from the United States or Germany. The Japanese government's colonial compensation was around $300 million and there was no compensation for individuals for "crime against humanity". On the other hand, Chinese civilians were reimbursed and duplicated. Tsushima citing the San Francisco Peace Treaty, but with Japan, Dokdo issue be as Korean school books compiled by the state of the official documents or later. Maps around the world of the Dokdo as Korean map to about 185. Of course, changing the color of the map and manipulating it into Japanese territory is the skill of the Japanese media. It was also the Japanese media that omitted Korean donations from statistics during the Great East Japan Earthquake. This has played a major role even now in the novel-like history of giving benefits to Korea and the manipulation of public opinion by the sham media that joined it. Prime Minister Abe's regulation of exports, not imports, is also the result of learning the wrong history. In the past, Japan has copied many technologies from the U.S. and Germany. I can say that I stole this mole. Then, is there any technology that Korea stole from Japan? If pollack sauce, pollack sauce, and pollack have moved from Korea to Japan, the Japanese say it is their traditional food. Far from acknowledging this fact, the South should sever diplomatic ties with South Korea on a trivial pretext. It is Korean who knows Japanese bad deeds and habits best. It would be in his favor to Japan to stop its foolish incitement. Therefore, some politicians and the media instigated the slandering of Koreans by all means. It is important to know that Japan can never be a beautiful advanced country and it is not. Isn't Japan fighting the glory of the past? Cruel history needs to be stopped immediately. Sengaku is Chinese and Kuril Islands is Russian. Dokdo is without saying. Will Japan be able to handle the fight? Japan makes opportunities a crisis, and Korea uses crises as opportunities. Of course China spreads the crisis to the world. The average Korean is not very interested in Japanese slander. Japan only waits for Korea's mistakes. That's how they make headlines. The illusion that war crimes countries without reflection are recognized worldwide is their own sleep talking.

In the case of Korean and Japanese politics, it is definitely not money. If it was money, both countries would have less restrictions on trade. It is the opposite - both populations are pushing politicians to be as nationalist as possible against the other. That's the same case in all of developing Asian countries tbh. Think about it, South Korean President managed to put more than half of Supreme Court judges by himself in less than a single 5-year-term. Then the Supreme Court ruled that South Koreans can sue Japanese firms. South Korea keeps escalating this, confiscates Japanese assets, and then cries when the Japanese put restrictions on trade. But nobody can stop South Korea to stop shooting itself in the foot - because its population keeps demanding it from their politicians. The only winner due to all of this is not money or its owners.

Why does KZbin not tell me how cnbc is funded with a watermark from Wikipedia under every one of their videos like it does with RT?

[@ihatecabbage7270]

Cause you tube suck on CNBC's cock. You realized they bend over to media corporations nowadays. They even allow CNBC to monetized their video and demonetized non corporate you tube channel with impunity.

[@Jeon1958able]

Ummmm how old are these sources? Korea found alternatives sources months ago. Companies already made statements they're in steady partnerships already and that prices won't need to go up. Either this video was made a long time ago and took a long long time to edit and broadcast, or these people are worthless when it comes to doing their job I guess.

[@Jeon1958able]

@Jo Ryugu Yes Korea have found alternative supplies. Some are from Korea itself and some are ironically from smaller Japanese firms that have moved to China to move out of the regulations set by the Japanese government.

@@joyhoon I'm talking about the specifics on this. CNBC is behind on this. And yes it is an ongoing issue but are they providing the latest context or just looking for views?

Eric Ha well at the end there they made sure to make the last word you hear is about trump’s stance potentially making the situation worse, maybe that’s why they decided to finally go over the issue. Could be other things, but the reasons for these things seem to be consistent throughout.
