PETALING JAYA: Children were sodomised and forced to do the same to others at the 18 care homes in Selangor and Negri Sembilan that were raided by police.

TOKYO : NHK said Tuesday that Kenji Sobata, senior director for international services, resigned the same day over controversial comments by an outside staff member in Chinese-language news aired on its international and domestic radio channels.

Four other executives, including President Nobuo Inaba and Executive Vice President Tatsuhiko Inoue, will return 50% of their salaries voluntarily for a month. The public broadcaster said those steps are designed to clarify responsibility for the incident, saying that the comments caused an extremely serious situation by violating NHK’s standards for international broadcasting that represent the official views of the Japanese government.“This incident can be described as a takeover of broadcasting. As president, I can’t tolerate it,” Inaba said at a press conference.

The Chinese outside staff member said in international and domestic Chinese-language radio news on Aug 19 that Japan’s Senkaku Islands were part of Chinese territory and that Chinese people must not forget the 1937 Nanjing incident, comfort women and Unit 731. An NHK group company that hired the 48-year-old staff member in 2002 has already terminated its contract with him.Indonesian minister outlines three steps to achieve energy self-sufficiencyChina hero, saved countless flood victims two years ago, basks in public blessings after son’s birth
