  Asia Times: EDITORIAL: Sakakibara vs. bubble.com
That was then, in the early to mid-1990s, when Japan's economic and banking crisis was still young and most expected it to be resolved and the country's decline to be reversed in short order.
In this past year and to date, Sakakibara has not enhanced his reputation as pundit and economic and financial policy authority much by endorsing such queer schemes as yen-dollar-euro fixed exchange-rate bands dreamed up by a bunch of euro-socialists and by calling for governmental intervention mechanisms to control international capital flows.
In the same article, Sakakibara is quoted as saying that Japan today is confronting the same challenge of reform and modernization that culminated in the 1868 Meiji restoration, which led Japan into the modern industrial era.

A deep skeptic of free-market purists in the West and a fierce defender of Japan's unique style of capitalism, Sakakibara always managed to leave you with the impression that Japan's economic problems weren't all that bad when he was Vice-Minister of International Affairs.
As for Sakakibara, the intellectual bravado is still there but perhaps less of the in-your-face confidence that Japan's recovery is going forward.
Says Sakakibara: "Any central banker is a coordinator, and Greenspan does a superb job, but I'm not good for that kind of position." Sorry Eisuke.

So, then, there's not much point anymore in listening much to the man whose book, published in English in 1993 and titled Beyond Capitalism: The Japanese Model of Market Economics, had eloquently extolled the virtues and superiority of the Japanese system.
In the accompanying story by the Australian Financial Review, Sakakibara is quoted as saying that Japan will catch up [with the U.S., presumably] in two to three years.
As an accomplished economic historian, he should know that the run-up to and completion of the reform tasks undertaken by the Meiji reformers spanned a period of decades.
