TOKYO, May 1 Asia Pulse - The nation's five major electronics manufacturers plan to reduce group capital spending by 10.4% on the year to a combined 1.77 trillion yen (US$14.3 billion) this fiscal year.

Hitachi Ltd. (TSE:6501), Toshiba Corp. (TSE:6502), Mitsubishi Electric Corp. (TSE:6503), Fujitsu Ltd. (TSE:6702) and NEC Corp. (TSE:6701) plan to reduce their investment outlays in semiconductors by 27.9% to 694 billion yen.
