I know very little how SE does things, and as far as branches go, I have no clue as to what they have as well. BUT as a striving business that is always trying to come out with new ideas to survive this economy, to sit idly by and wait for a power shortage to be resolved when it can take up to or more than a month is not how the business man thinks.

SE is doing their part for their nation. But Businesses also have to do their part for their future. A good business is aggressive when it comes to making decisions and choices. And they are always trying to move forward and avoid/limit as many set backs as possible.

SE has branches. When in need, you utilize what you have. I'm sure they are going to utilize every tool in their tool box to make sure they keep revenue coming in. I expect these branches in other countries to be used in some way. Just because SE Japan isn't able to operate, does that mean SE NA is just sitting around waiting for Japan's power to come on?

Idk. Food for though.
