Some day, the Americans might know this guy on the right.

He's an owner of Japanese's third biggest telecommunications carrier with a market captil of approximately 30 billion US dollars (in present values loosing 10 billion in two days). However has decided to acquire a US carrier adding another 20 billion debt on it's balance sheet.
Wow, what a huge ambitious challenge this guy has.

Japan has kind of forgotten it's ambitions of growing/expanding for more than 20 year. So it's great to see some news of ambitious Japanese challengers.
