		Because Takenaka, 51, a soft spoken, witty former economics professor at Keio University and Harvard, has made clear he regards the situation of Japan's banks and larger economy with the same alarm as a lot of outsiders.
		Takenaka is also likely to order a new round of audits of the big banks' loan portfolios to flush out more duds on their books.
		Takenaka and others say the total of nonperforming and questionable loans is much higher, maybe even as much as $1.1 trillion.

	Asia Times -
		A native of Wakayama prefecture, Takenaka is respected by policymakers in other countries, especially the United States, whether or not he has dared the wrath of his own party stalwarts.
		Takenaka also emphasized the need for widespread discussions about privatizing public corporations, particularly Japan's three postal operations, saying the basic principle should be privatization of public enterprises to free up the postal operations' superb resources and revitalize the economy and improve convenience.
		He was against Takenaka's pressure on banks to reduce non-performing loans, alarmed that it would reduce banks' capacity to finance small and medium enterprises.

	TIMEasia Magazine: Cool Under Fire
		On Friday, Takenaka issued orders to 15 banks that have received capital injections in the past to return to profitability or face further government intervention.

		Takenaka refuses to speculate on whether he'll survive a reshuffle, but says that he believes Koizumi is committed to structural reform—and that he's committed to Koizumi.

	2ND LD: Koizumi backs Takenaka's bad-loan disposal plan Japan Policy & Politics - Find Articles
		Koizumi did not elaborate on the plan he approved, and it was unclear whether Takenaka had made compromises on his initial plan, which called for stricter accounting rules that may deplete the capital bases of major banks and prompt the government to bail them out using taxpayers' money.
		Takenaka, who has been holding a series of meetings with politicians and bankers since last week in a bid to win support for his plan, met with senior legislators of the ruling bloc and economic ministers before his meeting with Koizumi in the evening.
		Although Takenaka and his opponents still appeared to be apart on key points of the plan, they looked set to agree on at least one proposal for the package.

		But John Taylor, treasury undersecretary for international affairs, also said Japan should be swift in disposing of the bad loans, and that safety nets should be established at the same time to deal with the loss of jobs that would result as the cost of the cleanup.
		Takenaka's principles are to accurately classify banks' bad loans, examine whether they have adequate capital and whether they are appropriately exerting corporate governance.
		The comments come at a time when a task force under Takenaka is set to release an interim report on ways to promote the disposal of nonperforming loans.

	BBC NEWS \| Business \| Pressure mounts on Japan reformer
		On Tuesday, Mr Takenaka postponed the release of a plan to tackle the mountain of non-performing loans, after running into opposition from some government officials.
		But Mr Takenaka said the final version of the plan would not be watered down, and claimed the full backing of Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi.
		Opposition to the Takenaka plan centres around the effect on the stock market, which has plumbed a series of 19-year lows since he was put in charge of banking at the end of September.

		Takenaka pledged to halve the burden by March, 2005, a goal most observers thought was wildly optimistic.
		But for the past two years, Takenaka has unleashed SWAT teams of auditors to scrutinize the banks' books and force them to reclassify iffy loans as the dogs they really are.
		Although a Japanese revival seems to be under way, Takenaka and his team will need to keep a keen eye on a still-fragile banking system if the country is to remain on the road to recovery.

		Not only is it culturally valid as Japanese society is based on the group, not the individual, but it can get Takenaka off the hook when strong decisions are made that affect individual Japanese corporations and Japanese indivduals.
		To his credit, Takenaka said that Japan needed to be “realistic” about its problems.
