diplomatic license plate Explanation: Just a guess, since it's not clear if your assumption of JBN's meaning is correct, but could it be a license plate number? In Japan, diplomatic license plates carry 外 followed by four digit number. Excerpt from this reference: http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/ナンバープレート_(日本)#.E5.A4.96.E4.BA.A... >>外交官などの車両は外交特権で日本国法の適用対象外となり、自動車税の納付義務もない。また、ナンバープレートも青地に白抜きの特殊なもの（「外・0901」のような形）になる（別名ブルーナンバー）。 The numbers at the end is probably the date, Sept. 17, 2007, by the way... |

foreign capital Explanation: Could it be 外資系? Then the number could mean the member's registration number or something. Totally guessing. |

JBN, Foreign news No 1398 (Industry, ...) (*Date*) Explanation: I believe JBN stands for Japan Business News Center, see: http://www.asianetnews.net/Agency_Home.asp?ORG=KYODO&LANG=JA... http://www.asianetnews.net/Agency_Home.asp?ORG=KYODO&LANG=EN... 外 is the abbreviation for 外国からのリリース 「ジャパンビジネス広報センター（ＪＢＮ）」は、共同と新華社などアジアの通信社で構成している「アジアネット」や米国の広報専門通信社「ＰＲニューズワイヤー」を通じて、***外国の企業や団体のプレスリリースを邦訳して国内メディアに配信する***ほか、日本企業や官公庁の英文リリースを外国メディアに配信しています。 http://www.kyodo.co.jp/kkannai.html If you look on their website, they number their news from foreign countries, pl: #1533 http://prw.kyodonews.jp/open/release.do?r=200712123718 #1534 http://prw.kyodonews.jp/open/release.do?r=200712123728 #1535 http://prw.kyodonews.jp/open/release.do?r=200712123723 for more, see: http://prw.kyodonews.jp/open/kaigaikara.do?p=1 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2007-12-14 00:00:44 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- *sorry, a small correction: they number their news from foreign countries, "PL:" pl should of course be i.e. or for example. |
