Japan Post started at 187 1, and the establishment of Japan Post Corporation was the biggest reform of Japan's postal industry since 132. Japan's postal services are divided into three categories: postal services, savings services and simple insurance services. Accounting is set up for the three major businesses, and independent accounting is implemented. Japan Post used to be a typical state-owned system and experienced two reforms. 200 1, 1, the former Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, General Affairs Department and Autonomous Province were established as the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications.
On April 1 day, 2003, Japan Post took another big step on the road of reform-the establishment of Japan Post Company. Japan Post officially abolished the Post Office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications and established Japan Post Company, which is a self-financing state-owned company. Its goal is to provide comprehensive and fast mail and parcel delivery services, simple and safe savings and remittance services and simple insurance services while retaining universal services.
