begin quote from:
Elon Musk Sounds The Alarm About Japan
He is charismatic and unpredictable.
His personality divides.
Some people describe him as the most revolutionary CEO of recent years. Others see in him a CEO who is the mirror of an era dominated by trends that follow one another at the speed of a short video on TikTok.
We stick all the labels on him: meme CEO, megalomaniac. But Elon Musk has managed to get everyone to agree on one important thing: he fills a great leadership vacuum that the world is currently experiencing because of the distrust of political leaders.
Musk has seen his popularity explode in recent months. For those who love numbers, Musk managed in a few weeks to gain millions of followers on the social network Twitter (TWTR) - Get Twitter, Inc. Report, which he describes as the "de facto town square" of the internet. He has more than 91.5 million followers as of time of writing.
As a reminder, the serial entrepreneur is in the process of acquiring Twitter for $44 billion. He would thus add to his already full schedule -- Tesla (TSLA) - Get Tesla Inc Report, SpaceX, The Boring Company, Neuralink -- another company with a global presence. In some countries, Twitter and other social networks are often a place for political opponents and minorities to express themselves.
'Japan Will Eventually Cease to Exist'
Musk therefore seems to be embracing his new status. He now expresses himself on almost all subjects, economic, political, geopolitical, aware that his voice has an impact and can launch a debate or shine the spotlight on a given issue. After Ukraine invaded by Russia in February, Musk has just taken up another international subject.
The billionaire, whose fortune is estimated at $247 billion on May 7, according to Bloomberg Billionaires Index, is worried about the decline of the Japanese population.
"At risk of stating the obvious, unless something changes to cause the birth rate to exceed the death rate, Japan will eventually cease to exist," Musk posted on Twitter on May 7. "This would be a great loss for the world."
