Russia mostly only had an influence in Asian countries with a dictator or communist government. Some Asian countries that had a Russian influence in the past were: North Korea, China, Vietnam, Cambodia and Burma.

I am really fed up with the Russians

I feel we really need to come up with another form of power so we can all boycott Russian gas.

I feel Russia know we are reliant on it for natural gas and other fuels and I feel they will start to hold the world to ransom, They are already trying to create a new form of OPEC for gas, they openly killed a British citizen with a radio active chemical and invaded Georgia what is left for them to do before the international community does something or will it be too late.

Russia and India have always been great partners. They both have helped each other in many aspects. My wish would be see Russia and India as a partner and to lead the world. Russia is still providing much of the nuclear technology to India and it has happened even in the past.

Well Russia did not really bring it into those countries but the former Soviet Union did support countries who has the same type of believes and type of government. They supported Cuba for example as well.

Both Pakistan and India have nukes nowadays. I wonder how much Russia was involved with giving them the knowledge and technology. I doubt that these two countries came up with it by themselves.

If you open Moscow Yellow Pages, you would be surprised how many foreign companies have their offices in Moscow...

Although the international financial crisis has caused the collapse which has never occurred since the Great Depression, the Russian Federation is still considered as a quiet harbor.

Amongst the transcontinental companies there are a considerable number of Japanese corporations such as Toshiba, Mitsubishi, Fujitsu, NEC, Sanyo, etc.

Though the latter are thought to be well-known for their successful in retailing of high-quality products worldwide, there have been cases which must be interesting to investigating institutions.

We are going to take Mr. Vadim Danilov’s employee fraud case including asset misappropriation, money laundering, and kickback scheme.

The story goes Mr. Vadim Danilov was hired by Mr. Harry Fujimaki to work for Toshiba Corporation (Kabushiki-gaisha Toshiba) as a general logistics manager in Russia.

The event occurred in 2004.

In the course of two years Mr. Danilov had been “employed” in other areas such as, a certification specialist, customs broker, trader, promoter, etc. Mr. Danilov worked effectively and honestly thinking that he was a team player contributing to Toshiba’s profits.

Moreover, Mr. Koichiro Natsume, an executive manager of Toshiba Corporation in the CIS, declared him a Toshiba Official Trader at the Conference at the Imperial Park Hotel, Moscow, 2006.

In addition, Mr. Natsume declared that Mr. Vadim Danilov was officially registered by Toshiba Corporation as Toshiba's Official Trader named “the Ninth Wave” in the UK.

To conclude the announced procedures, Mr. Natsume issued to Danilov’s Ninth Wave an invoice which was paid to a TCMS official account at Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Singapore Branch.

Furthermore, there were other financial transactions during 2006-2007-2008 years, executed by Mr. Vadim Danilov between clients and Toshiba Consumer Marketing Singapore, SMBC Singapore branch account.

After all the payments were completed, Mr. Natsume vanished somewhere in Japan. Toshiba Corporation managers in Russia, Japan and Singapore refused to explain to Mr. Vadim Danilov how those payments had been used.

Toshiba Corporation & TCMS, Mitsubishi and MCLogi, insist nowadays that Mr. Vadim Danilov has no evidences and the corporations declare now that Mr. Vadim Danilov had never had any relations with Toshiba Group Companies or Mitsubishi's MCLogi stuff.

Moreover: the Toshiba and Mitsubishi MCLogi staff has been running away from Mr. Danilov for 35 months (!).
The Metropolitan Police Department of Tokyo also refused to investigate the accident and explained to Mr. Danilov that he had no right to bring in an action against a Japanese citizen.
It would be better for the Metropolitan Police Department of Tokyo to check diligently backgrounds of Toshiba's and Mitsubishi's Conformity Certification procedures manipulations in Russian Federation. As well as Customs Clearance documents with false Japanese stamps and signatures of imaginary "Japanese Customs" or "Thailand Customs"...

It seems to be a confrontation between David and Goliath but David had had no backup…

Toshiba fraud in Russia

Hello Herwam,

I noticed your post on the news site under the Russia/Japan fisherman's article.

Just to see if I'm following here, you're saying that Toshiba was:
  • Committing insurance fraud by re-selling broken products
  • Laundering the funds
  • Using a Russian native to unwittingly do their dirty work for them

Your story was a little hard to follow, but I have to say that I'm intrigued! What else can you tell us about this and the fraud that was committed?
