(CNN) — November is just a few days away, but Japan’s iconic Mount Fuji remains snowless, marking the latest date without a snowcap since records began 130 years ago.
The peaks of Japan’s highest mountain are usually dusted in snow by early October, but as of Tuesday the summit has remained bare – raising the alarm of the impacts of the climate crisis on one of the country’s most beloved landmarks.
The first snowfall signals the arrival of winter. It follows the summer climbing season, which this year ended on September 10.
Snowcaps begin to form on average on Fuji on October 2, and last year, it was recorded on October 5, according to Japan’s weather agency – though public broadcaster NHK reported that most of it melted away in early November due to warm temperatures.
After iPhone 16s, Indonesia blocks Google Pixel phones: Kontan
Published Fri, Nov 1, 2024 · 015 PM
INDONESIA has prohibited the sale of Pixel phones, saying Alphabe’s Google has failed to meet domestic content requirements, according to a report by local media outlet Kontan.
It’s illegal to trade Google Pixel Phones in Indonesia, even though an estimated 22,000 units have already entered the country this year through personal shipments or carry-on items, Kontan reported, quoting Ministry of Industry spokesperson Febri Hendri Antoni Arief in a Thursday press briefing.
That follows shortly after the government also blocked the sale of iPhone 16 devices in South-east Asia’s largest economy after Apple fell short of its investment commitments.
The Cupertino, California-based company has sent a letter seeking a meeting with Industry Minister Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita to discuss the ban, though no date has been set, Arief said.
The move signals that Indonesia is willing to double-down on restrictive policies for foreign players as a means to secure greater investment.
Smartphone and tablet makers are required to meet domestic content requirements as high as 40 per cent depending on the scale of their operations in the country. Companies can comply by manufacturing their devices, developing firmware, or investing in innovation in Indonesia.
Apple has taken the rout of putting up developer academies in the country, though its investment stood at just 1.5 trillion rupiah (S$125.7 million), below its 1.7 trillion rupiah pledge, the industry ministry said. Rival phonemakers like Samsung Electronics and Xiaomi have established local factories.
The US$1-trillion Indonesian economy is a potential growth market with over 350 million active mobile phones — much more than the nation’s 270 million population, according to government data. Both Google and Apple did not make it into the country’s top five smartphone brands last year. BLOOMBERG
