At the very top of the article:
"Achieving world-class AI inference performance through Japan-developed 2nm 3D-stacked CPU and server integrated, developed, and manufactured in Japan"
replyPretty sure it's worded in a way that it applies only to the server, so it should be read as two distinct things:
reply- Japan-developed 2nm 3D-stacked CPU
- server integrated, developed, and manufactured in Japan

reply"Japan-developed CPU..." plus the server itself (parts, power supplies, case, etc.) integrated, developed and manufactured in Japan. It sounds like they're weasel-wording it a bit, but I don't think the CPU itself is manufactured in Japan, only "developed."
replyYep. I'd say the CPU is manufactured outside, and the rest of the server in Japan.
replyCombining info from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49740907 and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49740901, it seems that they're relying on TSMC for the first batch and are planning to move production to JASM once that's ready?
