TOKYO - Apple Inc supplier Japan Display Inc is considering slashing about 1,000 jobs, or about a fifth of its parent-only workforce, as it eyes a bailout from a Chinese-Taiwanese consortium, the Nikkei business daily reported on Wednesday. The struggling smartphone screen maker is expected to announce restructuring measures along with its full-year earnings at 3 p.m. .
