This article would like to focus on Tokyu Corporation with regard to its handling of scandals. Once a company is mired in scandals, it often gets involved in scandals again.
There are few ambiguities in the explanations, and the outlook seems to include a lot of risks not only for construction quality issues but also for general construction projects.
As far as I can see, there is little commonality between 3 types of construction quality issues, so the risk of the same type of issue being repeated is small.
