The government&#039;s nominee for Bank of Japan governor has told a Lower House hearing that he intends to stick with the BOJ&#039;s massive monetary-easing program.
                
Economist Ueda Kazuo said, &quot;If I am approved as governor, I would like to work closely with the government and implement appropriate policies in accordance with developments in &#039;economic activity and prices.&#039; I would also like to create a situation where wages rise structurally in tandem with efforts by businesses and government policies.
I will try to achieve price stability not temporarily but in a sustainable manner.&quot;
                
&quot;Structural wage increases&quot; refer to workers earning higher salaries after upgrading their skills and moving into growth industries.
                
Ueda said there is still a great deal of uncertainty surrounding Japan&#039;s economy and those overseas.
                
He said consumer prices are rising at a rate of around 4 percent, higher than the BOJ&#039;s 2-percent inflation target. But he added that the inflation is mainly &quot;cost-push,&quot; stemming from rising import prices, not strong demand.
                
Ueda said he thinks the cost-push factors will likely diminish and inflation will fall below 2 percent late in the year.
                
He said, &quot;I think it will take a while to achieve the 2-percent target. I believe it&#039;s appropriate for the BOJ to continue with the current monetary easing, in view of the current &#039;economic activity and prices&#039; and future prospects.&quot;
