Sony Ordered To Pay 5 Million Yen to Former Company Inventor


Nowadays, Sony company developed many creations, and they show it to people around the world. Sony company is one of famous electric product company. They have manufacture many electric product. For example, a televisions, a radio, a computer and the most famous CD player Sony Walkman. They also create a Playstaion one, two, three and PSP players. There are the most famous electric product of the Sony company.

Recently, the former employee of Sony company Hidehiro Kume who create a pickup that is use to read and write in Playstation 2 and the original Playstation. He didn't feel that Sony company requited him, so he took it to court. The lower court of Japan rejected Kume's claim that he deserved compensation from Sony company, but the hight court of Japan ruled that Sony company nust pay Kume 5,100,000 yen (approximately 60,000 baht) as a reward for his creation. " I thanks the court for identifying some of my contribution to the company, but the company should have appreciated my contributions when I was an employee." Kume said after the ruling. The high court of Japan orders Sony company to pay ex-employee 5.1 yen for his creation.

In my opinion, the Sony company should pay him for his creation because it makes a lot of money to the Sony company. I think 5.1 yen that Sony has to pay ex-employee is not too much if compared with profit that Sony got from his creation.
