Kyodo News Agency on October 11, Japan's Suntory Holdings President Sina Tsuyoshi's "45-year-old retirement system" speech has triggered various discussions. According to the report, he intends to promote the movement of talent to a growth industry and encourage workers to re-learn, but criticisms such as "this is abandoning the weak" have emerged mainly on social networking sites.

Sina Gangshi proposed at the Economic Friends Association seminar in September that "it is necessary to realize the retirement system at the age of 45, to build a mechanism for employees to learn on their own, no longer rely on the company, and the company to work hard to retain outstanding talents." He then explained in his keynote: "If the line is drawn at the age of 45, the mentality and system (for talent mobility) will move forward." ”

Kazuo Mizuno (Economics), a professor at Hosei University in Japan, emphasized: "Most workers seek stability. Compared with the flow of talent, stable employment is the responsibility of the operator. Sakurada Kengo, a representative officer of the Economic Friends Association, believes that "even in the future, the system will not change to retire at the age of 45." He said there was a need to focus on results-based employment and diversified work style options that included side jobs.
