Exactly. Countless businesses across Japan have closed down over the last 2 years, and many others have been downsized. Many factories have reduced their work weeks to 4 days, while salarymen at other companies have had their pay cut.
On the bright side, Japanese exports are up for the 4th straight month, but it'll take at least another year before the dust settles here and companies begin hiring/expanding again.
