TOKYO (The Thursday Times) — Baat cheet se waqif afraad ke mutabiq Japan agle paanch barson ke liye apne majmui difaai akhrajaat taqreeban 60 trillion yen (376 arab dollar) muqarrar karne par ghaur kar raha hai, jo us raqam se khaasi kam hai jo us ki Wizarat-e-Difa apni zaroorat batati hai, aur yeh ghaur aise waqt ho raha hai jab hukumat apni aham qaumi salamati dastavezat par nazar-e-sani kar rahi hai.
In afraad ne Jumme ko bataya ke Wizarat-e-Difa ka takhmina hai ke maali saal 2027 se 2031 tak ke paanch barson ke liye use 70 se 80 trillion yen darkaar honge, jabke Wizarat-e-Khazana majmui raqam 60 trillion yen se kam rakhne par zor de rahi hai. Maali saal 2023 se 2027 tak ke maujooda program mein 43 trillion yen mukhtas kiye gaye thay.
Wizarat-e-Khazana ke ek senior ahalkar ne zyada takhmine ko "ek falakiyati raqam" aur "naqabil-e-ghaur" qarar diya. Wazir-e-Azam ke daftar ke ek senior ahalkar ne is ka jawab dete hue kaha ke "guzishta chand barson mein sharah-e-mubadla ke utaar chadhao ko dekhte hue" 60 trillion yen se kam ki had "amalan akhrajaat mein katauti ke mutradif hogi aur bain-ul-aqwami biradari ke samne is ka jawaz paish karna mushkil hoga". Hukmaran Liberal Democratic Party ke difaai mahireen ne bhi Wizarat-e-Khazana ki tajweez ko naqabil-e-qubool qarar diya hai.
Drones, missiles aur derpa salahiyat
Naya Defence Buildup Program, jo nazar-e-sani ki jaane wali teen salamati dastavezat mein se ek hai, tawaqqo hai ke masnoi zahanat aur drones jaisi jang ki nayi shaklon par, aur aisi "denial capabilities" par tawajjo dega jin ka maqsad kisi mukhalif ko apne ahdaaf tak pohanchne se rokna hai. Is mein bari tadaad mein drones aur missiles ki khareedari aur Japan ki fauji karrawaiyan jari rakhne ki salahiyat behtar banane ke iqdamat shamil hone ki tawaqqo hai.
Is maah ke awail mein mansooba bandi se waqif afraad ne bataya tha ke hukumat aur us ki ittehadi jamaat 70 se 80 trillion yen par ghaur kar rahi hain, jo maujooda mansoobe ka taqreeban dugna hai, aur kamzor yen ne saz-o-saman ki khareedari ki laagat barha di hai.
Adaigi kaun karega
Asal mushkil sawal yeh hai ke kisi bhi izafe ke liye raqam kahan se aayegi. Wazir-e-Azam Sanae Takaichi ke qareebi afraad ka kehna hai ke woh khane peene ki ashya par consumption tax mein kami ki koshish ke dauran tax barhane se hichkicha rahi hain, aur karobari halqe corporate tax mein izafe ke mukhalif hain. Ek senior hukumati ahalkar ne kaha: "Zaroorat pari to hamein tax barhane aur izafi sarkari bonds jari karne honge."
Amriki Sadr Donald Trump ki administration ne ittehadiyon par zor diya hai ke woh difaai akhrajaat GDP ke 3.5 feesad tak barhayen. Tawaqqo hai ke rawan maali saal Japan ki GDP taqreeban 690 trillion yen tak pohanch jayegi, jo maali saal 2022 mein taqreeban 560 trillion yen thi, jo maujooda mansoobe ka bunyadi saal hai. 60 trillion yen se kam ki paanch saala raqam ka matlab salana 10 se 12 trillion yen hoga, jo GDP ke 2 feesad se bhi kam hai.
Apni maujooda salamati dastavezat ke tehat Japan ka hadaf maali saal 2027 tak difaai aur mutalliqa akhrajaat GDP ke 2 feesad tak le jana hai, jis ke liye akhrajaat mein islahat aur corporate, income aur tambaku taxes mein izafe se raqam faraham ki gayi. March mein us ne apne pehle taweel faasle ke missiles nasb kiye, jo taqreeban 1,000 kilometre range wale upgrade shuda Type-12 zameen se bahri jahaz par maar karne wale missiles hain.
