Concern grows within BOJ over inflation goal.

Some members of the Bank of Japan's board believe it will be "difficult" for the BOJ to achieve its 2% inflation goal within two years, as pledged in April. The minutes of the last meeting in October show that three out of nine policy makers voted against a statement which said that the bank expects inflation to hit 1.9% in FY 2015. The skepticism contrasts with the optimism of BOJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda.
