Looking at DHC’s own website, what might be the best course of action would be NOT ONLLY to #BoycottDHC but #BuyFANCL @FANCL_Official which ranks second in the ranking. Since DHC has the audacity to show this off. We should see the face of the CEO when the share drops to 10%.
FYI: According to a TPC marketing survey in 2019, sales volume-wise #SuntoryWellness has the top share with17% while #DHC lags far behind with 7.4%. So although DHC CEO relied on satisfaction survey, the market is already in favor of Suntory. netshop.impress.co.jp/node/8269
According to TPC report, which was released just last week, Suntory's share has risen by 8 percentage points since last year with successes in its "TV commercials and newspaper ads". It seems like their Sustainability Policy and Diversity clauses are really paying off.
For example, this is Suntory's Human Rights policy: "As a member of society, the Suntory Group recognizes the importance of respecting human rights in all business activities," was the textbook response Suntory's PR gave to @HuffPostJapan and others. suntory.com/csr/activity/h…
Here’s Suntory’s Human Rights Policy, signed by its President and CEO in 2019. Rather a latecomer, but this came as a result of the company finally becoming a registered company by the establishment of holding company. suntory.com/csr/activity/h…

DHCの差別表明に対する行動を促す明確な論旨。流石です。「社会課題に取り組む企業に”投票”する」意味で購買行動に反映する。大賛成。世界の潮流ですね。そこで #BuySuntory#BuyFANCL を提案したいと思います。彼等にこそ”投票”しましょう。差別する💩は放っておいて。
わざわざ今回のステートメントで示した健康食品大手ランキングによると、業界2位がFANCL @FANCL_Official 、4位が今回名指しされたサントリーウェルネス @SuntoryWellness です。DHCの市場シェアは12%で2位を大きく引き離しています。ではせめてこの2%をFANCLやサントリーに奪還させてはどうかと。 Image
因みにこのランキング表、情報元の経産省によると噴飯ものらしいです。FANCLやサントリーが公平公正な企業であるかは知りませんし健康食品は門外漢なので評価も評判も知りませんしそれは私的にはどうでもいいです。社会課題に真摯に取り組み企業を応援する。それだけです。

DHC, CLEANSING OIL THAT FUELS HATE. DHC IS THE ENEMY OF HUMANITY. FIGHT SEXISM, RACISM, ANTI SEMITISM AND HISTORICAL REVISIONISM. Petition from yeard ago. Now we have more reason to #BoycottDHC because they don’t CHANGE! chng.it/Py9HkDXT #EnoughIsEnough
So why don’t we #BuyFANCL and #BuySuntory to help boost their sales vis-a-vis the racist hate-monger company like #DHC? Let's take a sweep against them so we can EAT THEIR SHARES UP and EMPOWER the more PROGRESSIVE companies like FANCL and Suntory ranking 2nd and 4th currently?

#StopRacism CEO of Japan’s #DHC mocks its rival company #Suntory in a public statement for using Korean figures in their ads saying they’re ridiculed as “Chontory” on the internet. ‘Chon’ is a derogatory term for Koreans. Imagine this statement being released this year, in 2020.
“Chon” is derogatory term for Koreans living in Japan (‘zainichi’ Koreans) but is considered an all-encompassing term to denigrate ALL Koreans (and is used as such). You can say DHC took the risk to lose the Korean market. All Koreans are entitled to boycott DHC for this outrage.
Translation: “Somehow, the personalities used in Suntory’s ads are almost all Korean-Japanese. For this reason, they appear to be ridiculed on the internet as Chontory. DHC [on the other hand,] is a pure Japanese company including all personalities who are all Japanese.”

#米国大統領選2020 【速報】共和党上院のマコーネル院内総務、選挙人投票によりバイデン氏が次期大統領として選出されたことを初めて認める。これであの共和党の重鎮ミッチェル下院議員も留任を決めるか。
McConnell Recognizes Biden as President-Elect After Long Holdout bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
マコーネル院内総務は議会上院でバイデン氏およびハリス氏に対し、それぞれ次期大統領、次期副大統領選出の祝意を述べた。「 院内総務の表明は選挙人投票数が確定して初めて発表されたため重みを持つ」とCNN。
マコーネル院内総務「我々の多くは異なる結果を望んでいた。だが我が国には大統領となる者を定める手続きがあり、選挙人団はこれに従った。本日私は、バイデン次期大統領の選出に祝意を示すとともに、違いを乗り越え、我が国初の女性副大統領が誕生したことを誇りとしたい。」 nyti.ms/3a8eLwu

Japan’s age of #sexualconsent is 13. THIRTEEN. It’s been so for hundred years. Do you think a 13-year-old can make informed judgment when it comes to sex? If not, sign the petition to protect their rights: Raise age of consent in Japan! chng.it/jm52KtKG via @change_jp
This outdated law has been favored by the perpetrators rather than their victims. Because of this statute, a boy or girl not reaching puberty yet is considered to have the ‘ability’ to say no to adult perpetrators of physically resist them if they are willing to. Well, can they?
Most probably no because the adult has power over them, especially if the victim like them. The adult can easily abuse this and take advantage. What protection is there for these low-teens? When they’re raped, they’d be considered to have the ‘ability’ to resist. Can they?
