NTT DoCoMo Inc., Japan’s biggest wireless-phone carrier, will spend 164 billion yen ($2.1 billion) to expand its network capacity after a service disruption this week, the fifth in eight months.
The company will make the investment during the four years ending March 31, 2015, Tokyo-based DoCoMo said in a statement today. Six executives including President Ryuji Yamada will take pay cuts of as much as 20 percent for three months to take responsibility for the outage, it said.
