[Provisional Translation]

Opening Statement by Chief Cabinet Secretary Edano

CHIEF CABINET SECRETARY EDANO:First, I have one thing that I would like to report. I believe that you have already been briefed by Minister Yosano, but I would like to report on the 9th Review Meeting on Economic Situations, which was held at 9:00am this morning. At the meeting, we shared our opinions on the current progression of the appreciating yen and the future risks. We also laid out the basic views and issues for consideration so that the next Cabinet would be able to quickly work to address countermeasures against yen appreciation in light of future market trends. For detailed information please forward your inquiries to Minister Yosano or the Cabinet Office.
