日本鐵路獲勝的原因 (Why Japanese Railways Win)
20:51
- With failed reforms ranging from network expansion to rate hikes across the 60s and 70s, rail's share of total passenger traffic dropped from north of 50% to the mid-20s, while freight cratered from a 50% share to 5%. Undeniably overstaffed, inflexible in its strategy, and bloated in bureaucracy, JNR's spiral continued into the 1980s. Burdened by a slowing national economy and a nationalized rail system that's debt had now reached 20 trillion yen—a number comparable to the debt of entire nations at the time—Japanese politicians were now urged to take on bolder reform. Quietly, the idea of privatizing the rails began to bounce around subcommittees, then, by the mid-80s, it seemed the only logical option to halt the downward spiral.
隨著上世紀六七十年代從擴建鐵路網到提高票價等一系列改革的失敗，鐵路客運量佔總客運量的比例從 50%下降到 20%左右，貨運量則從 50%下降到 5%。不可否認的是，由於人員過多、戰略不靈活、官僚機構臃腫，JNR 的頹勢一直持續到 20 世紀 80 年代。國民經濟增長放緩，國有化鐵路系統的債務已高達 20 萬億日元（這一數字相當於當時整個國家的債務），日本政界人士是以被敦促進行更大膽的改革。鐵路私有化的想法開始在各小組委員會中悄然出現，到了 80 年代中期，這似乎成了阻止經濟下滑的唯一合理選擇。
