日本经济财政大臣城内实：政府蓝图中对货币政策的提及与之前的做法没有区别。

A newly formed Samsung SDS union formally requested collective bargaining one day after launching. Membership applications began afternoon July 6 and topped 2,000 within about two hours; by ~13:30 on July 7 membership had risen to 4,342. Samsung SDS employs roughly 11,000 staff; the union seeks more than 5,500 members to secure a majority. Management proposes replacing cash performance bonuses with company stock worth 20% of annual salary; a staff vote on the plan is underway and closes at midnight July 7. Opponents say stock-based pay links compensation to share-price and external industry conditions, is harder to liquidate and is not included in retirement-benefit calculations.
