real positive stuff from the Japanese....I am ready to NOT buy Fuji
Fuji Co. has removed Israel from its complimentary world map that they
give to their customers with a purchase. Yes, in Fuji stores abroad you receive the world map without Israel!!!
According to Fuji, Israel just doesn't exist... It is most likely done to
entice Arab customers. That map without Israel makes Arabs happy, very
happy...
It is a very dangerous precedent - it looks like an indication that Arab
calls for boycott of Israel start bearing fruits. Many Israelis today
called for boycott of all Fuji products - film, cameras, batteries etc. (see readers responses in Yediot Aharonot).
Luckily - there are alternatives: film- Kodak, Agfa, Konika, cameras -
Nikon,Olympus, Samsung, Cannon etc.
This Fuji's action is the worst possible insult against Israel, and, until
they apologize and reprint the map, we should all never buy anything made
by Fuji.
Please spread the word around - our buying power can do wonders. Even 3-5%
reduction in Fuji's sales could cause them to reconsider.> Also important
to note - Subaru is Fuji. And the same approach should be applied
as a photographer....my buying habits just changed
