犯流 Banking on the Korean Wave, unemployed Korean prostitutes and even Korean college girls on vacation are heading to Taiwan, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia to ply their skills in the world’s oldest profession. A Taiwanese paper reported Monday that a 26-year-old Korean college girl by the name of Park was busted in a Taipei hotel for engaging in paid sex with a Taiwanese man (for 4,000 Taiwanese dollars, or about W130,000). According to the paper, the girl entered Taiwan on Dec. 28 on a tourist visa, and immediately started “work” through a local broker. Ms. Park will soon be deported back to Korea.
The Taiwanese paper also reported that local “brokers,” riding the Korean Wave that has swept over the country/renegade Chinese province, have recently focused on furnishing Korean girls. In particular, it quoted Taiwanese cops as saying that in the case of Korean college girls using their precious vacation time to earn a little cash, costumers needed to make reservations since the girls were only on the island for a short period of time.
And it’s not just foreign brokers doing the pimping. Brokers in Korea are also finding girls jobs in China and Southeast Asia. Last year, cops busted a gang in Ulsan and Busan for sending about 100 college girls to Hong Kong, Taiwan and other “Korean Wave” locales. Each girl paid a commission between W200,000 and W800,000 and a fixed portion of their proceeds.
One foreign affairs cop said, “With the special law on prostitution going into effect in Korea, prostitution brokers are looking overseas. With Korean girls growing in popularity due to the Korean Wave, more and more prostitutes are heading to not only Japan, but also China and Southeast Asia.” He added, “Because the girls can earn twice as much money if they look like a Korean Wave star, we are hearing information that girls are getting plastic surgery before they go.”

US firms get tough on IP piracy Chinese companies are responsible for 70 percent of intellectual property theft, and they are the target for new moves combatting the flood of fakes American businesses, losing a massive US$250 billion a year to copyright piracy, are taking the fight against counterfeit goods in Asia to the sources of production, with China at the frontline of the onslaught. The problem, he said, had become so serious that in China one may not be able to differentiate between a car produced by the world's biggest automaker General Motors and a fake. "And that is that some folks in China were building cars for General Motors who then found out that four towns away, they were building the very same car with the same brochures, and who could tell the difference?" This year, while expanding lobbying and education in China and Brazil, the chamber will launch education and enforcement programs in South Korea, India and Russia. In South Korea, Washington is seriously concerned that modern copyright protection is lacking in important areas, the report said. Key among these is Seoul's failure to adequately update laws to protect sound recordings against digital piracy. Intellectual property theft costs 750,000 American jobs a year, according to the chamber. http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/worldbiz/archives/2005/01/10/2003218841 http://www.reuters.com/financeNewsArticle.jhtml?type=businessNews&storyID=7274372 http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=10000080&sid=a8uWgUsTXURQ&refer=asia http://msnbc.msn.com/id/6805603/

The site supports and publicizes certain distortions of Korean history, such as justifications of Japan’s colonial rule of Korea, to teachers and educations teaching students around the world. The site explains, “This 35-year period [of Japanese colonial rule] was the time when many feature of modernity appeared in Korea, including rapid urban growth, commerce, industry, and forms of modern mass culture such as radio and cinema... By the time of the Japanese surrender in August 1945, Korea was the second-most industrialized nation in Asia after Japan itself.” unlike most European colonizers, who used their colonizes to extract natural resources and agricultural products, Japan encouraged true economic development and industrialization in Korea without any evil intention, justifying Japan’s imperial rule over Korea.
Byungki Koo became the second federal law enforcer charged with helping Kyongja and Wun Hee Kang try to evade charges that they lured two young women from Korea to work as hostesses at their bar in Queens. The women say they were physically and sexually assaulted after they refused to have sex with customers. http://www.newsday.com/news/local/state/ny-bc-ny--debtslavery0111jan11,0,4581983.story?coll=ny-region-apnewyork AIR-MARSHAL HELD IN SEX-SLAVE CASE Brooklyn, New York January 12, 2005 A U.S. air marshal was grounded by the feds yesterday for obstructing an investigation into a Korean couple suspected of smuggling young women into the country to force them into prostitution. ★Byung Ki Koo, 33, was held without bail at an arraignment in Brooklyn federal court yesterday after he turned himself in to the FBI to face obstruction charges ★that carry a maximum sentence of life in prison. Koo is accused of trying to protect accused human traffickers Wun Kang and his wife Kyongja Kang by joining a plot to put one of their victims onto a flight to South Korea after she told authorities she would blow the whistle on the smuggling scheme. The Kangs are accused of helping South Korean women come to the United States for a $10,000 fee, promising they could work off their debt by hostessing at the couple's Flushing, Queens bar. The women — who are cooperating with federal investigators — were promised they would not be required to have sex, according to court papers. But as soon as they were in the U.S., Wun Kang allegedly suggested they could earn more money by sleeping with customers. After they repeatedly refused to prostitute themselves, Kang allegedly threatened to kill them and made plans to sell them to a brothel in Chinatown http://www.nypost.com/news/worldnews/38051.htm

Former U.S. Envoy Warns Seoul Against Supporting Pyongyang Former Bush administration special envoy to North Korea Charles Pritchard said Thursday South Korea must not give Washington the impression that it supports Kim Jong-il's regime. Pritchard said the Bush administration could scupper South Korean plans that appear to be in Pyongyang's interest, such as the construction of power grids and railway lines in connection with the Kaesong project, or the building of ports and roads. He also said that while most people expected the two Koreas to reunify if the North collapsed, it was more likely North Korea would be absorbed by China. Pritchard said that since North Korea already depends on China for much of its fuel and life necessities, its absorption by Beijing would be a relatively simple matter. http://english.chosun.com/w21data/html/news/200501/200501130026.html
お茶会はウリなら起源ニダ! One of Korea's oldest cultural traditions will become part of Honolulu's ethnic landscape with the opening of the Myung Won Tea Ceremony Center at the Palolo Korean Buddhist Temple. The 2,000-year-old Korean tea ceremony was nearly lost until revived by the late Myung Won, who was awarded a Presidential Order of Merit for cultural contribution to Korea. Her Myung Won Cultural Foundation is now led by her daughter, Kim Eui Jung, who was named a living treasure of Korea and designated Intangible Cultural Asset of Seoul in the Royal Court Tea Ceremony. Korean tea culture dates to the Kingdom of Kaya in 42 A.D., when a unique Korean tea called Paksancha was brought by a princess to plant in the hills of Pakwul. In the Koryo Dynasty starting 918 A.D., the popularity of tea expanded to scholars, literati and the public. 1392, tea ceremony achieved official designation as one of five national rites http://starbulletin.com/2005/01/13/features/story2.html http://www.myungwonculture.org/english/education/01.htm
The VND5.5 billion ($350,000) products had arrived at Hai Phong Port from the Republic of Korea in September without an owner. Japan Tobacco Inc., the owner of the two trademarks, confirmed all the products were counterfeit. This is the first time that such a large quantity of fake cigarettes has been destroyed in Viet Nam.
http://www.asiapacificms.com/articles/korea_counterfeits/ S. Ted Kwon, a patent and trademark expert and partner at Seoul law firm Kim, Shin & Yu, reckons-conservatively-that South Korea's counterfeiters produce at least 1 million copies a year. South Korea's counterfeiters are busily exporting their wares worldwide. Korean-made copies account for the largest number of counterfeits seized in Japan, while in the U.S. they consistently place in the top three. ★A Korean counterfeiter based near Tokyo says he sold 100,000 super copies in Japan alone last year. ★At the same time, working with overseas Koreans in Los Angeles, he has now started shipping his forgeries to the U.S. According to a survey of 500 Japanese schoolteachers by the government-funded Consumer Education Help Centre, 20% had bought counterfeits. Of those, 63% bought them because they were cheap, 36% for fun and-significantly-25% because they were of high quality. a South Korean journalist (who asked not to be named) suspects they might be, at least in Korea. "Every woman in Korea owns at least one counterfeit bag, even my mother," says the journalist, who happily carries a fake Gucci bag to interviews with politicians, police officers and officials. "You can tell women on the subway are carrying fake bags because any Korean who can afford genuine European luxury goods doesn't take the subway," the journalist adds. "She drives or is driven." If she's right, then almost one in two women on some subway lines in central Seoul is carrying a counterfeit. ★"We tried it for the first time with a Kelly bag in Japan about a year ago," says the Korean counterfeiter who runs seven factories. "We thought it looked great so we put it on sale in a discount store ★we work with for about \500,000 ($3,900). We weren't sure what would happen but it sold literally in a day, so ever since we've been selling most of our Kelly bags as originals."
Korean Netizens are now demanding that the “foreign English teachers who degraded Korean women” be punished, and are planning to hold demonstrations and take legal measures to ensure that justice is done.
The Korean portal site Daum has also started a petition signing campaign to expel “low-quality foreign teachers.” They’re looking for 10,000 signatures, and they’ve got about 3,931. The campaign is also recruiting a “[Counter-] Yankee Strike Force.” They say the use of violence is prohibited, but they’d like to get together and hold a protest demonstration. There targets are 1) the “Yankee bastards” who put up the instructions on how to molest female students, and their accomplices; 2) the “Yankee bastards” who threw the wild party in Hongik; 3) the club owner; 4) institute owners who hire ex-cons or under-qualified teachers; 5) as a “bonus,” drunk GIs who might be in the Shinchon area starting fights with local citizens. Membership is open to all Korean nationals (no kyopos allowed, apparently ? perhaps the organizers read this) with “wholesome thoughts (more like worldview).” They’ll meet at 6:00 p.m. Saturday near the front gate of Hongik
Just so there’s no confusion…English Spectrum and I will be hosting two parties at Mary Jane’s in Hongdae on BOTH the 14th (Friday night) and the 15th (Saturday night).
Each party will be slightly different. On the 14th, it will be much the same as the last two; meaning some sex in the female bathroom, some late night dance floor grinding and partial nudity, mixed in with the addition of some clothes -allergic professionals who should be making a guest appearance that night.
On the 15th, we will be holding an MC’ed Sexy Game Night. We will be selling drinks at an exceptionally low price from 9-12 to get everyone hammered prior to the games. From 12 to about 4 am, we’ll play a bunch of team-oriented, guy-girl-guy-girl games, each for small prizes. This will be mixed in with a fair amount of dancing (hip hop and otherwise) intermissions.
Both nights will be fun, but a little bit different. If you can make one or the other or both, please come and join the fun. The 15th will be a good time to meet new people and develop some interesting relationships.
Banking on the Korean Wave, unemployed Korean prostitutes and even Korean college girls on vacation are heading to Taiwan, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia to ply their skills in the world’s oldest profession. A Taiwanese paper reported Monday that a 26-year-old Korean college girl by the name of Park was busted in a Taipei hotel for engaging in paid sex with a Taiwanese man (for 4,000 Taiwanese dollars, or about W130,000). According to the paper, the girl entered Taiwan on Dec. 28 on a tourist visa, and immediately started “work” through a local broker. Ms. Park will soon be deported back to Korea.

In particular, it quoted Taiwanese cops as saying that in the case of Korean college girls using their precious vacation time to earn a little cash, costumers needed to make reservations since the girls were only on the island for a short period of time.

Another police official said, “Korean prostitution is increasing in places in China. We got word that 600 Korean girls went over to Qingdao, where many Southeast Asian tourists go to play golf, in order to work in the entertainment establishments there… Because most of them use tourist visas, there is virtually nothing we can do to stop them.”
これか TVBS anchorwoman Kelly Hsueh (薛楷莉) has broken her silence over allegations that she exploited a wealthy Japanese businessman and was involved in other improprieties. Over the past two days she has given interviews to local Chinese media to clarify her position. Hsueh told the China Times Express yesterday that her initial silence did not mean she is guilty. She said she was only handling the case in the way her company had instructed her.
According to Hsueh, her accusers had fabricated many false stories to harm her.
"Since they are accusing me of fraud and exploitation, they are free to sue me and they should not release self-contradictory stories in the media everyday," Hsueh was quoted by the paper as saying.
The allegations against her involve Japan-based painter Yao Hsu-teng (姚旭燈) and his friend, a Korean businessman residing in Japan, who is identified by his Japanese name as E. Tokuhara (コ原榮玉).
ttp://www.flyingchair.net/story.php?storyID=1209#7036 It would appear that a new service is hitting the piazzas of major Chinese cities. What one would call a growth industry? Or perhaps not judging by the reactions of the punters.
I politely asked him to step aside. He ignored me and went on shouting nasally into the phone. His loud, annoying Chinese voice was eating away at my weary nerves. After being polite, and being ignored for an extended period of time, I growled, "EXCUSE ME!" and shoved my way into the bathroom. Immediately he grabbed my arm and started scolding me in Chinese. I yanked my arm back and went to the bathroom. Waving his cigarette in the air, the old man continued to yell at me as I made my way out. Something about respecting your elders....
Finally I made it back to my table. I sat there next to my brother. I noticed some old Chinese women pointing at me. I ignored them and went on eating. Later on while I was walking through the crowd, I pretended not to see those same old women again. This time I overheard some of their conversation. They made fun of some of the Caucasians and African-Americans, the "foreigners" who were here as friends of the family or as spouses of other family members. It never really bothered me until now because I never really paid any attention to what was going on. Caucasians had always been referred to as "Lo-fans" or "Fan-wi-lo." I never gave much thought to the meanings of any of these phrases which, directly translated, mean "white barbarian" and "white demon." It even made me more ashamed of "My Heritage" when I heard them refer to African-Americans using the Chinese word for charcoal. But then they referred to me as a "Jook-sing."
Letter From North Korea: Inside the Hermit Kingdom Newsweek International Jan. 24 issue Call me crazy, but I've always wanted to go to North Korea. Impenetrable, enigmatic, a tantalizing blank spot on the map. I had watched the old Soviet Union open up. Could something similar be happening in the Hermit Kingdom? North Korea makes Russia look like a human-rights paradise, even in the bad old days. "Hollywood?" one asked. "What's that?" Was I witnessing the glimmerings of glasnost, the opening that brought down communism in Russia? Hardly. The limits of the experiment are everywhere apparent. You only have to look beyond the barbed-wire boundaries of the hotel for the dreary reality of the North to become apparent—a gray uniformity that makes the old East Bloc look sprightly by comparison. The prices set by Northern managers betray a profound cluelessness about market workings. (Six dollars to go to the toilet? Ten dollars for a bag of nuts that costs a quarter of that in the South?) This seemed more like a desperate groping toward Chinese-style authoritarian market reforms without any of the strategic vision that has made them so successful. The country's impenetrability remains. http://msnbc.msn.com/id/6831940/site/newsweek/
今頃これ報道してるよ、このスレの方が情報早いな。 一月前にこのスレには同じ情報が載ってた。 http://www.koreaherald.co.kr/SITE/data/html_dir/2005/01/17/200501170004.asp Koreans in U.S. have low median income Koreans living in the United States had median family incomes substantially below that for all Asian families, although Asians as a whole were better off than all American families, a U.S. census report says. The median income of Asian families was $59,324 - $9,000 higher than the median for all families - but Korean family income only stood at $47,624, according to the bicentennial report by the U.S. Census Bureau issued in December 2004. Japanese and Asian Indian families enjoyed median incomes more than $10,000 higher than that of all Asian families. Japanese were at $70,849, Indians $70,708, Chinese $60,058, Pakistanis $50,189 and Thais $49,635. Korean men and women reported $38,776 and $28,403, compared to $40,650 for Asian men and $31,049 for Asian women. Analysts said key to earnings may be related to English skillsプッ! Japanese were the only group with over 50 percent speaking only English at home, with 52.7 percent. About 27.2 percent of Japanese said they don't speak the language less than very well, and 20 percent were non-English at home, but speak English very well. In a survey on the poverty rate in 1999, Korean families were 14.8 percent, while the average Asian population was at 12.6 percent, which is similar to that of the total population of 12.4 percent.
The contrasts are detailed in the report, which provides data on such items as age, marital status, citizenship, language, education, earnings, poverty rates, occupation and home ownership among 11 Asian American groups. Median family income, for instance, ranged from $70,849 for Japanese and $70,708 for Asian Indians.
The median annual income of Asian families exceeded that of all U.S. families, and the percentage of Asians with at least a bachelor's degree was almost double that of the total population, according to the 2000 census. Median family Income Japanese (7.8%) $70,849 Asian Indian (16.2%) $70,708 Filipino (18.3%) $65,189 Chinese (23.8%) $60,058 **Asian Americans $59,324 **All U.S. families $50,046 poverty Thai (1.1%) $49,635 Korean (10.5%) $47,624 Vietnamese (10.9%) $47,103 Laotian (1.6%) $43,542 Source: U.S. Census Bureau The U.S. Census Bureau We the People: Asians in the United States scheduled for release the week of Dec. 12. http://www.census.gov/Press-Release/www/releases/archives/tip_sheets/003142.html
Let's Put an End to 'Ugly Korea' Five female Thai workers at a Korean manufacturing company have come down with multiple neuropathy and are unable to use their legs, and 3 who returned to Thailand after suffering the same condition now paralyzed in their upper bodies as well. This is a typical example of how foreign migrant workers go into debt to come to Korea with their dreams and end up suffering vicious sicknesses. The disease the women are suffering from is caused when you work exposed to the poisonous solvent Normal-Hexane without protection. That's why industrial law requires the use of gloves, facial protection, and masks The realities the workers endured are shocking. They worked directly with the chemical for 15 hours a day, without protection and in closed space, for in some cases up to 3 years. They worked long hours in dangerous jobs and were not even paid minimum wage!! In Thailand, other Southeast Asian nations, and even amongst ethnic Koreans in China, South Korea has for some time now been criticized as an "ugly country" for exploiting foreign laborers just because it has come to enjoy a higher standard of living. There must be an end to instances where foreigners who come to Korea for work are exploited or worked to death. http://www.hani.co.kr/section-001100000/2005/01/001100000200501150743001.html
So after spending the morning in Tsukiji, I was in Ginza for the rest of the day with MY BROTHER, and my brother was telling me a funny story about how he was an MC for a TV show about a Japanese/KOREAN high school joint activity, where two classes went on a vacation together and had become "buddies". So my brother was polite about it and asking "nice" questions, but the director wanted to see more Jerry Springer-style action, so my brother asked them more provocative questions like "don't you think it's evil to get conscripted and serve your military?", "do you think the history they taught you in school is true?", or "my British vegan friend thinks that North Korea and South Korea are all part of one fascist system," and the pimply kids got all worked up and red in the face.
http://forum.japantoday.com/fb.asp?m=289592 Well, from what I can tell, the rest of Asian actually are not into Japanese culture or whatever as much as Japanese expect. Almost all of them focus on Chinese/ Korean/Western music celebrities than Japanese ones. If they have favorite in Japanese media culture, that's JAPANESE PORN. Japan is definitely leading exporter of porn videos in Asia. However it doesn't mean J-chicks are the hottest in Asia. If you feel asian men are definitely desperate for hooking up with J-chicks, the one of reasons is they actually consider J-chicks are more acceptable about easily sex or whatsoever than the rest of Asian chicks, by influence of Japanese porn. Otherwise, you look really hot in their eyes, if you don't want to date with them, you keep ignorant them. That's all you need.
http://forum.japantoday.com/fb.asp?m=289780 Almost all of them don't follow Japanese culture and don't consider us as the best looking in Asia except part of dudes stuck on naked J-chicks pictures because they just need to watch naked asian chicks for masturbation or whatever because they don't have so much obscene videos or naked chicks' pictures as Japanese have. however it doesn't mean they want to get a Japanese gf.
http://forum.japantoday.com/fb.asp?m=314584 I LOOOOOOOOVE CHINESE MEEEEEEEEN!!!! I really loooooooooove Chinese guuuuuuuuuuuys! I adore them! and almost my Japanese female friends in SE Asia here want to hook up with local(or Chinese )guys or end up with them ( almost Chinese heritage men ) in fact ! Surely Korean men currently seem to be hot in Japanese media. Korean men aside, from what I can tell, almost all of Japanese women in the east have NO problem with Chinese men. And as a matter of fact, the number of marriage of Japanese women with Chinese men ( even just only mainland China and Hong Kong nationalities ) is about the same as the counterpart with western men in fact. I exclusively date with Chinese heritage men for this several yrs, now I'm already an adorer of Chinese meeeeeen!!!!!!! hahahahahahaha And CHINESE MOVIES HAVE BEEN SEEN IN JAPAN FOR A LONG LONG TIME BEFORE KOREAN DORAMA BROKEN OUT
It's true the majority of Japanese women thinks it's wierd to go out with Chinese or other Asian men. But there are some(or a few) women who thinks Asian men are hot like "Namaekaeta". I respect their own value on love affairs.
Aaargh! Namaekaeta, I have no doubt you are japanese. So, can everyone post in english again in here. Usually it is not allowed to write japanese outside the "learning Japanese"-section (without giving a translation). Well, I let these stay for now, but please write english again from now on. Thanx!

Sachs was appointed by UN General Secretary Kofi Annan to head the anti-poverty Millennium Project and come up with an action plan to meet the UN’s “millennium development goals” by 2015. The report, titled “Investing in Development", classified North Korea, Myanmar, Zimbabwe and Belarus as badly led, poverty-stricken states widely condemned for human rights abuses, and advised they should not receive large amounts of international aid.

I am sure those tendency part of our tradition and those bastards men still remained here. But things have changed quite a lot and as one of the Korean men,I cook,I adore strong women,I always try my best efforts to treat women as much nicely as possible. And to be fair,many of my male friends are the same with me (except some from the conservative family son)
But whereever I go to over the net ,if i say I am a Korean man,they perceive me as agressive rude macho man towards women.
Its very big disadvantaged image for Korean men. Do you have any bad experienced with meeting Korean men?
Korean men are usually known to be agressive,women beating,rough macho men. I agree that the probability of you would meet those childish macho Korean men is still higher than any other countries' men. But hey things have changed quite a lot. We have also many dearly sweet men here.
Its pretty sad that I face this preconception whenever I would try to meet a nice woman oversea!!!
Especially Chinese women are scared of meeting Korean men!
International Herald Tribune Jan 18, 2005 http://www.iht.com/getina/files/219027.html Thirty-year-old documents related to the normalization of relations between Korea and Japan after World War II show that the administration of then-President Park Chung Hee took a lump sum payment of $800 million for atrocities committed by the Japanese and then withheld compensation from all but a few individual victims and their families.
In 1965, in exchange for the money in grants and low-interest loans, the South Korean government agreed not to press Japan for further compensation.
With proof that most of the money was used for the development of the country's economy, lawsuits are now expected from individual families against the government. The documents show the lump sum came in the form of $300 million in grants, and $500 million in low interest and commercial loans, which were mainly used to build highways across the country, establish public companies such as Pohang Iron & Steel and build up the country's agriculture and fishing industries. Between 1975 and 1977, the South Korean government paid out just 2.56 billion won (or $5.3 million at the time) to the families of 8,552 victims. ↑で、それ以外全く払う必要は無いに、更に小渕が謝って金払ってたよな。

Korean Man's Widow Sues Firm; Courts: Wrongful-death action says the employer harassed him over his ethnicity before he killed himself. Company calls the claims baseless K. CONNIE KANG. Los Angeles Times. Los Angeles, Calif.: Apr 28, 2000 Junko Lee's lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court, accuses Nippon Express USA Inc., Japanese supervisors taunted and harassed Lee—about his national origin, mocking his Korean accent while speaking Japanese, and commenting about his breath after eating kimchi, saying that the company’s Japanese customers didn’t like that. The lawsuit also charges that Lee’s supervisors made disparaging sexual comments about his wife, a Japanese American, for marrying someone of Korean descent. On July 9, 1999, Lee was fired and arrested for making death threats, though he never went to jail.
なんだこのチョン? 本を売る為の話題作り? http://english.chosun.com/w21data/html/news/200501/200501190015.html Message 1: Japan is superior to Korea when it comes to the Japanese prime minister Junichiro Koizumi’s visit to the Yasukuni Shrine. A Japanese paying tribute to his ancestors who died during World War II at the Yasukuni Shrine looks more dignified than people who just complain about the prime minister’s official visit to the shrine.
Message 2: Pornography is the source of Japan’s strength.
Message 3: Japan doesn’t deserve to be called a copier.
I remember one Korean media have said all asians are the descendant of Korea. I remember one Korean have said English is improved indirectly from Korean language. I remember a professor of a Korean University have said my home country, Taiwan, was the colony of Kogryo in the ancient time. Well, if they think so, why can't they prove it? And I like to ask them that if they hate Japan so much, then why dont they break down the aproximately 3000 schools built by Japanese? Why are they still using the bridges, buildings, and other constructions built by Japanese. In fact, those constructions built from taxes on Japanese people. But I guess koreans never be tought about it. What if Russians occupy the Korean Penisula instead of Japan? Would they have steped the same way as Eastern Europe? Do Koreans know how the Ukiranians treated during WWII? Well, i can easily imagine that Koreans would hate me now.

Philippines received the biggest amount in free loans, $550 million, followed by Korea with $300 million, Indonesia with $223.08 million, Myanmar with $200 million and Vietnam with $39 million. When the credit loan from the Japanese government and commercial loans by the private sector are counted, Korea and Philippines were the biggest recipients with $800 million each. Both countries invested the money mainly to improve social infrastructure and the public living standard. However, Korea exceeded Philippines in terms of return of investment, according to the report. South Korea spent most of the money establishing social infrastructures, founding POSCO, building Kyungbu Highway and the Soyang River Dam. The report said, “South Korea efficiently spent the reparation with specific plans.

Diplomatic papers released Thursday show that the 1974 attempted assassination of then President Park Chung-hee by Moon Se-kwang brought relations between Korea and Japan to the worst crisis they faced since re-establishing diplomatic ties nine years earlier The assassination attempt, which resulted in the death of the Korean First Lady, threw fuel on the fire. Countless diplomatic documents went back and forth between Tokyo and Seoul. Korea aggressively called for Japan to investigate ties between Moon Se-kwang and the pro-Pyongyang Japanese-Korean group "Chongnyeon". Japan's resistance was also revealed.

North Korean Ties Complicate Japan's Efforts to Clean Up Banks The Wall St. Journal http://www2.gol.com/users/coynerhm/north_korean_ties_complicate_japan_banks.htm TOKYO -- To the U.S., North Korea is a member of the "axis of evil," but to Tokyo, Pyongyang is also part of Japan's huge banking mess. Japan is under pressure from Washington to get tough with North Korea, including choking off the flow of funds that ethnic Koreans in Japan send to the North. The funds to North Korea come from Japan's chogin credit unions, chogin literally means Korean bank -- which mainly serve the large community of ethnic Koreans in Japan who are loyal to the North. But many Japanese legislators, among others, allege the chogin have funneled billions of dollars to the secretive communist government in the North. But there are diplomatic costs to consider. Leaning on the chogin could fuel criticism that Tokyo is discriminating against Korean residents, an especially touchy subject. Much of that chogin money have been used by the North Korean government to buy weapons, while the populace has been suffering from malnutrition and even starvation for the past several years. U.S. and Japanese experts on North Korea estimate that anywhere from less than a $100 million to more than $1 billion flows from Japan to North Korea every year. In addition to legal remittances by ethnic Koreans, some of the money is undeclared taxable income.

An increasing number of Korean mothers make their children study English in the US during the summer vacation, lying to officials that they are going to emigrate there. They don't pay any tax, nor did their ancestors fight in the War of Independence, but enjoy the benefits of a free education and then return to Korea leaving baffled teachers behind. There are also a large group of mothers who send their children to the US for a long time to study English for free. This gives me huge concerns on the future of America's public education system.
I was embarrassed when I heard one such mother staying in the US tell her children not to play with black or Latino children.
It was an extreme irony for an illegal Korean immigrant to show prejudice to bona fide Americans.
The report said at least 350,000 Koreans are living illegally in foreign countries The most illegal emigrants — nearly 183,000 — were in the United States, followed by Canada with some 100,000. There are about 46,500 illegal emigrants in Japan and 10, 000 in the Philippines, the report said.
震災後、親中鮮になった神戸は、欧米人には住み難くなり、 欧米人は、関東へどんどん出て行ってるそうです。 The Japan Times: Jan. 19, 2005 By ERIC JOHNSTON http://www.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/getarticle.pl5?nn20050119f1.htm Ten years after the deadly earthquake, the structure of Kobe's traditional foreign community has changed, with fewer Westerners and a growing number of East Asians living in the port city. Today, Kobe is still home to many foreigners,But few Westerners are moving in, and many long-term residents are leaving for Tokyo At the same time, there has been a noticeable increase in the number of Chinese and Korean residents, especially in private international schools, which were once the domain of Westerners. According to local foreign residents, the trend, which began in the 1980s, accelerated after the quake. As of last October, there were 44,449 registered foreigners living in Kobe. These included 23,755 Koreans, 12,203 Chinese, 1,109 Vietnamese and 1,067 Indians. By contrast, there were 1,245 Americans, 463 Britons and 245 Canadians. One area where we've noticed a real difference is in the international schools, where over the past few years there have been fewer Western children and more from East Asia, especially (South) Korea," said George Gibbons, a Kobe resident from Britain who recently retired as an official at Marist Brothers International School. "Kobe and Hyogo Prefecture made huge mistakes in the months after the earthquake by ignoring the advice and offers of assistance of the Western community on how to rebuild in ways that would both keep foreigners who were already here and attract foreign investment," said a Tokyo-based Western diplomat who used to live in Kobe. 在日の陰謀→"Decisions on how to build an 'international city' were made by bureaucrats John Lawrence, a former American resident of Kobe who moved to Yokohama after the quake, echoed the complaints of many Westerners
So if I'm a left-wing, are you a right-wing or something banning the freedom of speech? Are the Tokyoites Nazis or something? Unless you are living under the dictatorship, I have right to say and do anything I like. That's called the freedom of speech. If the administrator or mods of this site don't like what I said, they'll ban me from this site, as simple as that. In any case, not you or the Channel 2. This website is above all an amateur public site, where the skyscraper lovers come and chat what they want to. This isn't a childish witch trial or something in the medieval time. If you can't follow the western rule, go home and posting in the Japanese websites, where there are only Japanese forumers 99% of the time. Now I've realized that Japan is a horrifying nation bleaching the "human rights" and am glad that I'm not in that country at the moment. I don't want to conform into that society or people but want some true freedom. Anyway so I will become some "foreigners" from now on. Do believe what you wanna believe, I'm an American or Chinese bashing Japan if you like. So I have the right to say what I wanna say about Japan or any other countries. I like the countries where they respect the human rights such as W.Europe. At least there aren't narrow-minded conservatives like yourself there. Japan isn't my place to be. You're one of those typical Japanese who can't accept someone who is different from you because you don't know the world outside. Anyway I'm now totally free to bash Japan whenever I like since I'm not Japanese.
Japan Asks Airlines to Reject 'East Sea' Name TOKYO, Jan. 21 (Yonhap) -- Japan's foreign ministry sent 34 international airlines flying in to Tokyo a letter asking them to reject South Korean requests to use the name "East Sea" when referring to the body of water that separates the two countries, an official at the South Korean embassy in Tokyo confirmed Friday. The letter, which was sent on Jan. 14, is seen as a response to the South Korean Ministry of Construction and Transportation's request of airlines flying to Seoul to use the term "East Sea" instead of "Sea of Japan." The 34 airlines include the two South Korean airlines Korean Air and Asiana Airline, the official said. http://english.yna.co.kr/Engnews/20050121/310000000020050121221503E0.html http://english.donga.com/srv/service.php3?bicode=060000&biid=2005012237698 The notice claimed a 97 percent usage of “Sea of Japan” in world maps in 60 countries worldwide based on research done in 2000 and also cited the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization)’s decision to unify the term to the “Sea of Japan” in August 2004. The document was dispatched to Delta and Northwest Airlines in the U.S., as well as Air France, China Eastern Airlines, Air Canada, Lufthansa, Singapore Airlines, Air India, among others. Korean Air and Asiana Airlines also received this notice.

A policeman who had been taken hostage while attempting to arrest a 31-year-old suspected drug dealer in the western city of Neuss was released after his captor injected himself with drugs, got sleepy, and was taken without incident into custody by police forces. The drama unfolded when two policeman attempted to arrest the man. But the suspect stabbed one police officer in the neck and shot at the other, hitting him in the arm. The officer with the stab wound was able to run away, but the other was held by the suspect. Several hundred police officers then surrounded the building and sealed off the area.
誰か画像無い? http://www.koreaherald.co.kr/SITE/data/html_dir/2005/01/24/200501240009.asp The U.S. Embassy has warned of "potential threats" against Americans in the vicinity of a college area in western Seoul The warning was issued amid growing resentment from Koreans regarding demeaning comments made by foreigners about Korean women on an English-language Web site "English Spectrum." The site was designed to provide information for foreigners living in Korea. "We have noted recently a strong reaction in the form of web postings threatening attacks in the vicinity of Hongik University and the Sinchon area against Americans and other foreigners who speak English," said an embassy internal message. The embassy advised U.S. citizens to be aware that their public behavior might be interpreted as provocative by Koreans. The warning came days after Koreans became aware of the "Ask the Playboy" forum which had comments referring to Korea's "easy women." The site also included topics like "how to sleep with Korean women."
the hot issue among local Netizens was a post by an English teacher in Korea who wrote that local women treated him like a king and were easy to sleep with. When the photos were discovered, it was like pouring oil on an open fire. In mid-December, photos from the party were posted on English Spectrum, a website frequented by foreign English teachers working in Korea. They had been taken by some of the foreigners who attended the party and depicted Korean women and Western men dancing together in a suggestive way, Korean women revealing their breasts or underwear, as well as Western men and Korean women touching genetals and kissing. The photos escaped public scrutiny until 10 days ago, when they sparked an outcry at the height of the cyberspace hysteria about "foreign teachers degrading Korean women." Online rage switched targets from foreign men to the Korean women in the photos. Some online media described the pictures as "scenes of women openly enjoying sex with foreigners." These stories were often accompanied by malicious comments like, "Whores, are Western bastards that good?" and, "The English you learn from selling yourself is body language, not real English." Even more frightening was that calls for the women's names, work places, email addresses and phone numbers to be made public were promptly answered. http://english.chosun.com/w21data/html/news/200501/200501240027.html http://blog.marmot.cc/archives/category/stupid-foreigner-tricks/

US panel to review sale of IBM PC unit to China's Lenovo
WASHINGTON (AFX) - A US government panel is currently reviewing the deal that would transfer IBM 's PC-making business to China's largest personal computer-maker Lenovo, IBM said. IBM said it is cooperating with the review by the Committee on Foreign Investments in the United States (CFIUS), an interagency panel that may review mergers or acquisitions that affect national security. 'IBM has filed the required legal notice with the Committee on Foreign Investments,' said IBM spokesman Edward Barbini in a statement. 'IBM is following all the normal and routine procedures in the review of this transaction.' A spokeswoman for the US Treasury Department, which chairs CFIUS, said the agency is barred from commenting on any matters before the panel.

15 Illegal S. Korean Immigrants Arrested Mon, Jan. 24, 2005 AP ALBUQUERQUE, N.M Fifteen illegal immigrants from South Korea and the man accused of trying to smuggle them across the United States were arrested on a New York-bound Amtrak train in Albuquerque, federal officials said Monday. The men and the alleged smuggler, 27-year-old Pyung Seop Lee, were arrested Thursday at the city's train station, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials. Lee also is believed to be in the country illegally, officials said. The group, all men ranging from 23 to 35 years old, had Republic of Korea passports that lacked the proper U.S. visa or admission stamps, according to the agency. authorities were tipped off about the group by Drug Enforcement Administration investigators who noted the foreign nationals' reservations on the Amtrak train's travel manifest. When agents intercepted the train bound for New York, Lee told them the group was part of a tour. He said he was traveling with the group until they reached Chicago but was not part of the tour. The agents then found the mens' train tickets, passports and $4,000 cash in Lee's luggage, according to the complaint. Two of the illegal immigrants, Dae Seong Jeon and Jeong Geon Park, told investigators they flew from Korea Dec. 21 to Canada. After spending a week in a Vancouver motel, they said they joined six other Koreans and were driven across the U.S.-Canada border to Los Angeles. After about a month stashed in a Los Angeles house, they said Lee came to the house and instructed the group to meet him at an Amtrak train station, where they boarded the train. http://www.abqjournal.com/news/metro/apimmig01-24-05.htm http://www.newsday.com/news/nationworld/nation/wire/sns-ap-koreans-arrested,0,6810573.story?coll=sns-ap-nation-headlines http://www.kplctv.com/Global/story.asp?S=2851694

>>267への対応記事を前スレから発見 Forger created fake wives to obtain visas to the U.S. November 23, 2004 ㅡ Police said yesterday they have seized evidence indicating that as many as 250 single Korean women have illegally entered the United States by representing themselves as the wives of well-to-do employees at some of Korea's major corporations. Records confiscated from "visa brokers" in Seoul turned up documents that showed hundreds of U.S. visa applications had been forged. In general, the U.S. Consulate in Seoul refuses to issue visas to young, unmarried women who do not have strong family ties in Korea or who cannot demonstrate that they have significant financial resources. According to the police, Mr. Yang worked with two accomplices, only identified as Mr. Kim and Sally. Beginning in January 2001, the three suspects in the case placed advertisements in Korean-language newspapers in Los Angeles and on Internet sites, claiming that young women could earn high incomes working as barmaids and cosmetologists. The brokers charged the women up to 8 million won ($7,500). Police estimated their total earnings at about 2 billion won. The seized records showed that 320 customers had sought the brokers' help, with 250 having already left the country. An officer working on the case said, "For those applicants rejected by the United States, the brokers arranged trips to Canada and then smuggled them into the United States." http://joongangdaily.joins.com/200411/22/200411222207040909900090409041.html Japan's hesitation to eliminate visas reportedly was due to the large number of South Koreans illegally overstaying their visas in Japan, totaling 46,425 as of January. http://washingtontimes.com/upi-breaking/XXXXXXXXX9537r.htm

Scams/Abuse/Deaths - US Department of State - Crackdown Targets Immigration Fraud By Akilah Johnson, Los Angeles Times, August 29, 2003 Authorities in California are cracking down on scam immigration "experts" who promise to help illegal immigrants legalize their status but just steal their money instead. State Attorney General Bill Lockyer set up the Office of Immigrant Assistance two years ago and so far has filed charges against 14 unlawful immigration businesses. Legitimate immigration consultants are required to be licensed by the state and post a $50,000 bond. There are about 700 bona fide immigration consultants in California. Immigrants make up 25 percent of California's population and are attractive targets to criminals. In January this year, Lockyer intervened on behalf of some 300 Korean immigrants in the San Francisco Bay area who were facing deportation. They had paid up to $30,000 each to unscrupulous immigration "advisers" who gave them illegal green cards. Johnson writes: "According to the Federal Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services, fraud cases of all types have jumped 27 percent nationwide this year." http://usinfo.state.gov/eap/east_asia_pacific/chinese_human_smuggling/smuggling_in_the_press/scams_abuse_deaths.html

Let’s put this way. If a Korean person in Los Angeles behaved badly, would I have to apologize only because I am a Korean? I don’t think so.

南北纏めて世界経済制裁しろよ! http://www.keralanext.com/news/indexread.asp?id=99441 January 27, 2005 [US News]: WASHINGTON, The younger generation of South Koreans and their elected government do not share U.S. concerns about threats from North Korea, posing a challenge for Seoul and Washington, analysts said on Wednesday. Seoul's center-left government, a formal security ally of Washington since 1953, draws its support from South Koreans too young to remember U.S. backing in the Korean War or decades of belligerence from the Communist North, they said. While older South Koreans are wary of North Korea and supportive of the United States, the young display "nationalist sentiment and a tolerant attitude toward North Korea," said Lee Nae-young, politics professor at Korea University. Many South Koreans born after 1960 "fail to distinguish between the North Korean people and the Kim Jong-il regime, downplay human rights and are ignorant of the security threats posed by North Korea," Lee told an Asia Society seminar. "What we see as anti-Americanism does reflect differences over North Korea," said Thomas Hubbard, who retired in August after three years as U.S. ambassador in Seoul and was deeply involved in nuclear negotiations with the North in the 1990s. While trying to work closely with Washington, Seoul policymakers are trying to keep alive a North-South detente that has shattered Cold War certainties and allowed many South Koreans to visit the North in recent years, he said. The October enactment of the U.S. North Korea Human Rights Act -- unanimously passed by the American Congress, but criticized in Pyongyang and Seoul -- has made the rights issue a potential new irritant, Hubbard said.

>>【The number of crimes regardless of nationality in Japan in 2002, according to the Japan Times Sept 23, 2003, was 2.85 million, a postwar record high. However, since the Japanese population is not really increasing, the rise in the Japanese crime rate is more marked than that for foreigners.】
>>【Moreover, according to the same Japan Times article, the number of crimes committed in 2002 by foreigners was 1.39% of the total. Given the fact that the number of registered foreigners (i.e. those on one-year visas and above) is 1.5% of the total Japanese population, this means that foreigners are less likely to commit crimes on average than Japanese.】
>>【Let's mitigate that even further: Note that crimes committed by foreigners also includes visa violations--crimes that Japanese by definition cannot commit, which should be caveated out for a better comparison of crimes committed by everybody. Since visa violations make up around a quarter to a third of the total, the crime rate for SIMILAR crimes committed by foreigners thus drops to around one percent of the total. 】

U.S. Navy commander says Koreas, Taiwan-China, Japan issues are a big worry
Tuesday February 1, 4:04 PM AP
U.S. Navy commander says Koreas, Taiwan-China issues are a big worry The top Asian issues that worry the U.S. Navy are the potential for war in the Koreas, China-Taiwan tensions and the growing friction between China and Japan, the commander of the U.S. Seventh Fleet said Tuesday.
Vice Admiral Jonathan Greenert said another concern "that keeps us awake at night" was the threat of terrorism in Southeast Asia. He said America wanted to create a "coalition of the willing" to root out terror groups in the region.
But the Koreas were at the top of Greenert's list of security problems.
"Although war in Korea is less likely today than perhaps at any other time, the consequences are high," Greenert said in a lunch speech to the American Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong.
North and South Korea fought a conflict in 1950-53, but no peace treaty was signed, leaving the two sides still technically at war. A Demilitarized Zone that splits the rivals is guarded by nearly 2 million troops on both sides.
About 34,000 U.S. troops are stationed in the South to help guard against the North.
The No. 2 issue on Greenert's list of worries was tensions between Taiwan and China, which split when the Communists won a civil war and took over the mainland in 1949.
The Taiwanese have refused to join the mainland, and Beijing has threatened to attack if the island drags its feet too long on the unification issue.
Greenert said the United States hoped to encourage China and Taiwan to resolve their differences peacefully. America also wanted to discourage the rivals from unilaterally changing the status quo, he added.
"Key to preventing any kind of conflict is preventing a miscalculation," said Greenert, who assumed command of the Seventh Fleet last August.
The Seventh Fleet _ based in Yokosuka, Japan _ is the largest fleet in the Navy and the only one that has its home port outside of the United States. It comprises about 50 ships,
120 aircraft and 20,000 sailors and Marines. The USS Kittyhawk aircraft carrier is part of the fleet.
Greenert said the fleet was concerned about increasing China-Japan tensions fueled by disputes over territory and drilling rights.
"We are clearly allies with Japan, and we would like to maintain great relations with China," he said.

"We cannot say the issue of compensation for individuals was not completely resolved with the war reparation treaty signed between South Korea and Japan in 1965 and Japan cannot be exempted from the moral responsibility for the Korean 'comfort women' and other victims," Murayama said in an exclusive interview with Yonhap News Agency.

Nonetheless, the conclusion about Libya, which is contained in a classified briefing that has been described to The New York Times, could alter Washington's debate about the assessment of the North Korean nuclear threat. In the past, some administration officials have argued that there is time to find a diplomatic solution because there was no evidence that the government of Kim Jung Il was spreading its atomic technology abroad.

http://www.bangornews.com/news/templates/?a=108089&z=175 Thursday, February 03, 2005 BANGOR - Three Koreans were sentenced Tuesday in U.S. District Court to five days in jail and fined $500 each for illegally entering the United States. Jong Suk Kim, 52, Jin Ho Huh, 48, both of Seoul, and Hyuk Soo Kwon, 46, of Lee Dong, were arrested on Monday night with a fourth individual, who was not identified by Border Patrol agents. After serving their sentences, they are expected to be deported, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office. The four were spotted crossing the border about 8:30 p.m. Monday by agents conducting nighttime patrol flights near Houlton using infrared instruments to monitor the border. Agents spotted them walking into Maine about 1/10 of a mile from the Houlton border crossing, according to court documents. They hid in the brush next to a business called Dance and Eat. About 9:10 p.m. Monday, one of the four walked back into Canada, then drove a pickup truck to the area where the others were hiding and picked them up. Kim, Huh and Kwon told authorities that they left Korea on or about Jan. 20 and arrived in Toronto the same day.

Sung Koo Kim was initially arrested in early May, about a week and a half before 19-year-old Brooke Wilberger disappeared from a Corvallis apartment complex where Kim had allegedly been stalking an OSU swimmer. http://www.oregonlive.com/news/oregonian/index.ssf?/base/news/1107522003244970.xml Authorities accused Kim, a somewhat reclusive 30-year-old who lived with his parents, of traveling to college campuses up and down the Willamette Valley to steal thousands of pairs of panties. The burglaries, they allege, were part of an obsession that left him with a vast collection of pornography depicting violence against women and, in a few cases, images of children. A police task force investigating Wilberger's May 24 disappearance from a Corvallis apartment complex was intrigued by Kim's links to the apartments. They suspected Kim of stealing panties and lint from a clothes drier in the complex, cyber-stalking an OSU swimmer who resembled Wilberger and searching the Internet for nations without extradition treaties with the United States.

黒人にチンコを咥えさせられアナルを犯されるチョン! チョンと間違われて黒人に袋にされた中国人もいるし(別に良いんだけど、日本人でも間違われて襲われる危険大)、 他のアジア系にとってもチョンは物凄い迷惑。 http://news.ncmonline.com/news/view_article.html?article_id=3062bb5075a6e5c7e119537f020273ba Feb 09, 2005 LOS ANGELES –– Many Koreans serving prison terms in the United States are expected to apply for transfer to Korea in August when the Korean government ratifies an international treaty to accept prisoners of Korean nationality from foreign countries. Most Korean prisoners will request transfer because the treaty contains measures that make it easier for the transferred inmates to receive parole or reduction of terms, according to Korean American pastor Soo Min Lee, who has been advocating for prison transfer for nine years. "Because of their small physique, they easily become targets of sexual assaults, or errand boys for others' drug trafficking," he said. "When they do not yield, they are beaten to death, literally beaten to death," he said. Aside from conflicts with other inmates, Lee said, "Koreans, many of whom are recent immigrants, have difficulty communicating in English. They also sorely miss eating steamed rice and kimchi." Problems with non-Asian inmates are so prevalent that families of Korean prisoners in Men's Central Jail of Los Angeles County Jail took action last year. They protested the recent room assignments in which Koreans were mixed with non-Asian inmates, saying that the Koreans were susceptible to victimization by non-Asians who are physically stronger and belong to powerful cliques. The protesters demanded separate room assignments, citing an incident in which an Asian was assaulted by a group of African Americans because he was thought to be Korean. But their demand has not been met, said Lee.

County Men’s Central Jail don't want their family members to room with non-Asian prisoners. After an Asian inmate was assaulted by a group of African Americans, allegedly because he was thought to be Korean, family members are concerned Korean inmates are being targeted. Investigators at the Sheriff Department reportedly suspect that the victim was mistaken for a Korean by the attackers. Currently about 7,000 inmates in jails are waiting for court sentencing statewide. And Lee estimates that 300 to 400 Koreans are locked there.

黒人に敵わないチョンは、女に暴力を振るって憂さ晴らしをします。 http://english.chosun.com/w21data/html/news/200502/200502100006.html 10% Koreans Married to Foreigners - But Not For Long Some 10 percent of Koreans are married to foreigners. Often they are men who marry women from developing countries. Korean men unwilling or unable to find spouses at home are increasingly turning to life partners not only from among ethnic Koreans in China but from Southeast Asian countries like Vietnam, the Philippines, Thailand and Cambodia and from Central Asian countries like Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan. Often there is a commercial element to these unions. Many such couples lead contented lives, but many other marriages fail due to racial discrimination and ill-treatment.
This can be particularly damaging to women from Third World countries, who have nowhere to turn to if they suffer violence from husbands or other family members. Those who escape to shelters run by private charities often bear scars that will take a lifetime to heal. One woman at a shelter in Gyeonggi Province was paralyzed with fear when her husband appeared a few hours after she telephoned him from a nearby public telephone booth. The husband had traced the number. Two other women fled the shelter with their children because of the incident. "Overall, I think the proportion of problem families to ordinary families is 7:3. But all cross-cultural families have problems," It is mostly the Korean husbands who are responsible for the failure of such marriages, according to experts. "Men are responsible 90 percent of the time. They should help their foreign wives to adapt to life in Korea,” but they do not.

↑と同系の記事 SEATTLE, Washington, Nov 13 (AFP) - A US restaurant that boasts a house special of sushi served on a naked woman has sparked furious protests by Asian women's groups, but eager diners are jostling for seats. The unconventional diner boasts a sushi buffet eaten off the torsos of young female models who recline on a tall table surrounded by sprinkled rose petals, votive candles, and pots of wasabi, shoyu and pickled ginger. But while the novel serving suggestion from Bonzai Asian Pub and Bistro in the northwestern US city of Seattle appears to have pleased male gourmets, it has incensed women's groups.
Saturday night at Bonzai in Pioneer Square, a nearly naked woman is laid out on a table. A chef slices sushi behind her, to be arrayed on her torso, bare except for a sheath of plastic wrap and some decorative flower petals. Hours earlier, across town on the campus of the University of Washington, eight activists, mostly Asian-American women, express outrage at what they call the prostitution of sushi and the exploitation of women. Bonzai chef and owner Jun Hong, a Korean-American, who also owns Wasabi Bistro in Belltown Naked sushi carries no connotation of exploitation in its native Japan, said Bonzai regular Danielle Kim(金) of Newcastle. http://archives.seattletimes.nwsource.com/cgi-bin/texis.cgi/web/vortex/display?slug=sushi11m&date=20031111

Kim Jong Il, North Korea. Age 63. In power since 1994. Last year’s rank: 1. All the discussion about Kim’s development of nuclear weapons has deflected attention from the fact that his government represses its own people more completely than any other in the world. Each year, the human-rights group Freedom House ranks every country according to its level of political rights and civil liberties. North Korea is the only nation to earn the worst possible score for 31 straight years. It also ranks in last place in the international index of press freedom compiled by Reporters Without Borders. An estimated 150,000 Koreans perform forced labor in prison camps created to punish alleged political dissidents, their family members and North Koreans who fled to China but were forced back by the Chinese government. 2. Than Shwe, Burma. Age 71. In power since 1992. Last year’s rank: 5. 3. Hu Jintao, China. Age 61. In power since 2002. Hu spent 38 years moving up the Communist Party hierarchy, proving himself efficient and willing to do whatever was necessary to advance himself. Now, as president and general secretary of the party, Hu is the leader of an unusually repressive regime. Apologists point to China's economic liberalization and say its human-rights situation “is better than it used to be.”

Hold N. Korea accountable on nukes U.S., other world powers should speak with one voice in challenging the Pyongyang regime BY RALPH A. COSSA Ralph J. Cossa is president of the Pacific Forum CSIS, a Honolulu-based nonprofit research institute affiliated with the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington. http://www.newsday.com/news/opinion/ny-vpcos144145002feb14,0,2274130.story?coll=ny-viewpoints-headlines country with the greatest degree of leverage over North Korea is South Korea. As a result of Seoul's "Sunshine Policy" of economic engagement, North Korea has become increasingly dependent on the South economically; its (increasingly tentative) political acceptability internationally also has its roots in Seoul's continued encouragement to others to engage the North. ★★One wonders if ROK President Roh Moo-hyun is prepared to use this leverage or if it is Seoul, not Pyongyang, that has been bluffing. If Roh is serious about not tolerating a nuclear North Korea, he should - at minimum - announce that South Korea is "suspending participation" in all economic cooperation and assistance programs until Pyongyang has provided a satisfactory explanation of its declared nuclear capabilities and intentions. North Korea has effectively played a divide-and-conquer game throughout the nuclear standoff. If it receives conflicting signals from Washington, Seoul, Beijing, Tokyo and Moscow in response to this latest provocation, it will be encouraged to continue this tactic. The time has come for the other five finally to begin speaking with one voice, to hold Pyongyang accountable for its own words and actions.

Washington's tactics are contained in a classified "tool kit" of techniques to pressure North Korea that has been refined in recent weeks by the US National Security Council.
The new strategies are aimed at intensifying efforts to track and freeze financial transactions that officials say enable the Government of Kim Jong-il to profit from counterfeiting, drug trafficking and the sale of missile and other weapons technology. In interviews over the past three weeks, Administration officials denied the effort was part of an unstated initiative to topple Mr Kim.
Several said North Korea had stepped up its illicit trafficking and counterfeiting to help make up for lost missile sales and a crackdown on cash transfers from North Koreans living in Japan, some of which are illegal.

Dokdo is one of Korean territories and this fact has been authorized by the UN. But the problem is that shameless, greedy Japs declare that the island is a Jap's territory. Over one thousand years ago DOKDO was discovered by Korean fishermen. Since then the island has been offering abundant marine resources to the fishermen. Therefore it is quite obvious the island belongs to Korea. And the goddamn Jap's assertion is utterly nonsense. Jap must withdraw the assertion and get rid of the idea of stealing territories that belong to other nations.
Mercedes-Benz cars sold as new were found to have been stolen in Japan and brought into the country by a local luxury car importer. There had been rumors among some local car importers that stolen vehicles from abroad were easily available in Korea. The Korea Customs Service and a vehicle registration office in Japan confirmed yesterday that an importer in Gangnam imported three stolen vehicles from Japan, a Mercedes-Benz S600, an S55 AMG and an S500, which currently sell here for about 200 million won ($193,000) each. The cars' odometers had been tampered with. The importer said it had no idea the cars had been registered as stolen in Japan. "But we purchased them at a low price from a Japanese loan shark." Police said they weren't so sure of the importer's innocence. The case came to light when the importer asked for duplicate keys from Germany's DaimlerChrysler, the parent company of Mercedes.

It wasn't long after he had come back from being sent away to a Siberian, WWII concentration camp for a heart-breaking six years. When he came back, everything had changed in his life. Mrs. Watkins grew up in North Korea. When World War II came, Russians started searching for her family, because they were involved in the Japanese government. The 11-year-old Yoko had to escape with her mother and older sister Ko. They almost didn't make it to Japan, and even there, in their gracious homeland, they were mockedand left to almost starve. In the second book, she is even charged with arson, and she has to endure death and injury of loved ones. Yoko is not a person who will give up. She was the kind of person who honors her name. She once said that we were all part of the Kawashima family and that can mean a lot for anyone. Her family's sword is from 1330 She traveled from Nanam. Korea to Kyoto, Japan.

ここに米軍関連の売春婦に関して面白いネタが有る。 MBAカンファレンス In 1965 the Vietnamese War broke out. The U.S. Armed Forces had been stationed in Asian allies. The Base in Manila was one of the most important bases and a lot of GIs gathered there. Then the U.S. Armed Forces developed the R&R (rest and recreation) policy. It was to comfort soldiers exhausted on the battlefield and it, of course, included sexual comfort. That is why brothels grew in Manila. After the Vietnamese War ended, the numbers of soldiers stationed at the base in Manila decreased and the brothels lost their main customers. Thus tourists took the place of GIs as customers in the brothels. Sex Tourists came Why have Manila, Bangkok and Seoul become the destinations for prostitution? These three countries, the Philippines, Thailand and the Republic of Korea, have elements in common. They have formed an alliance with the United States. They, hence, have to accept the existence of the U.S. Armed Forces' Bases. Also in Japan there are huge military bases in the Islands of Okinawa. Thus there are a lot of brothels for American GIs. They have sexual intercourse not only with prostitutes but also with local girls, sometimes it is reported in the cases of extreme sexual behaviour.

教科書問題などで叩かれた時に駐米日本大使館が発表した声明 The Post's July 11 editorial "Awkward Japan" insinuated that high conviction rates in Japanese courts were indicative of the abuse of civil liberties of suspects. But Japan's judicial system ensures due process and fairness. Under Japanese criminal procedure code, prosecutors must indict only those suspects whom they think are guilty. Innocent suspects are relieved from suspicion at an early stage. The apparent high rates of conviction in Japanese courts are, therefore, an outcome of such early scrutiny and not "illiberal severity" imposed on suspects. With regard to the textbook issue, Japan's textbook authorization system is not designed for the government of Japan to define specific historical perspectives or outlooks. The system reflects the constitutional requirement to minimize governmental intervention in textbook authors' freedom of expression. This time eight history textbooks for junior high schools have been authorized and are subject to adoption by each local board of education. The editorial seemed to criticize the composition of the Textbook Authorization Council, insinuating that Japan did not ensure a balanced view of history. Council members are experts in various fields who act independently of the government. SATORU SATOH Minister for Public Affairs Embassy of Japan
アルゼンチンでもこんな事をやってるのがチョン、何所へ行ってもやる事は同じなのがチョン。 Discrimination against Korean immigrants significantly worsened after a series of news reports in 1993 on a case of Korean grocers exploiting undocumented Bolivian immigrant workers and stealing electricity from the State appeared in the press. A previous popular image of Koreans as industrious changed to an image of Koreans as poorly integrated, exclusive, and not willing to learn Spanish. Their presence in good schools and neighbourhoods has been described as an invasion. http://academic.udayton.edu/race/06hrights/GeoRegions/SouthAmerica/argentina01.htm
In a day and age when Japan's Prime Minister still annually makes pilgrimages to "honor" Japan's "war heros", books like this provide some insight into the cultural underpinnings of racism and utter brutality.
Japan's forced enslavement, torture, and rape of Koreans, Chinese, Taiwanese, and others in WW2 has been well-documented; and yet, curiously, it takes explosive books like this to bring this documentation out of stale academia and into modern light.
Even today, those who were borne and live in Japan from those Koreans forcibly kidnapped and raped by Japanese are not Japanese citizens... despite the fact that they are now 3rd generation Japanese, speak no Korean, and have never been to Korea. As this book amply demonstrates, Japan breeds into its people a robotic disregard for human life and suffering, and a racism that, to this day, is remarkably disturbing. In the US, we tend to focus on occidental sins... it's time we also cast our eyes eastward.

Powerful look at Tragedy & Brutality, February 19, 2005 Reviewer: K.A.Goldberg (Chicago)
This gripping expose' of Japan's brutality in China is not for the faint of heart. Author Iris Chang used official documents and interviews with aged survivors to narrate one of the most overlooked chapters of 20th Century genocide. When Japan's imperial army captured the Chinese city of Nanking in 1937, their soldiers exacted a blood-thirsty revenge. As this book shows, no Chinese were exempt from the seven-week (...) of murder and rape that followed. Japanese soldiers used Chinese prisoners for bayonet practice, shot entire families, and raped women by the thousands (usually killing their victims afterwards). Recoiling in horror, a handful of western officials, missionaries, and others (led ironically by (...) diplomat John Rabe) worked to establish an international safe zone that saved thousands of Chinese. Still this powerful narrative shows that Japan's army murdered an estimated 300,000 Chinese citizens in the space of less than two months.
I recently a television interview where an aged ex-soldier from Japan admitted to having participated in these brutalities and to having felt no remorse until years later. Gee. Author Iris Chang (1968-2004) was a talented journalist who unfortunately took
町村、ライス、ラムズフェルドGJ!!! 会議の記事は有ったけど、こんな話し読売にも産経にも書いて無かったぞ! U.S.-Japan upset China over Taiwan Sunday, February 20, 2005 http://edition.cnn.com/2005/US/02/20/us.japan/ China quickly criticized the U.S. and Japan for meddling in its internal security affairs relating to Taiwan. U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld held talks at the State Department with their Japanese counterparts on the two countries' security relationship.
Saturday's talks reaffirmed the U.S.-Japan security relationship at the cornerstone of stability in East Asia. In the joint statement, the ministers "reaffirmed the continuing strength and vitality of U.S.-Japan security arrangements, and expressed confidence in their capacity to deter and address challenges to regional peace and stability." "I can't think of a time when the relationship has been closer or more constructive," Rumsfeld said at the news conference. The officials also addressed China's growing military capabilities and urged China to improve "transparency" of it's military affairs.
The joint statement also declared Taiwan a common security issue and called for peaceful dialogue of tension across the Taiwan straits. The joint statement said the United States and Japan sought to "develop a cooperative relationship with China, welcoming the country to play a responsible and constructive role regionally as well as globally."
China's Foreign Ministry issued a response through Xinhua, the official China news agency. "Chinese Government and people resolutely opposes the United States and Japan in issuing any bilateral document concerning China's Taiwan, which meddles the internal affairs of China, and hurts China's sovereignty," the Chinese foreign ministry said.
BEIJING, China | Gao Hong, a Chinese scholar on Japan, said he was floored recently when confronted with a veritable outpouring of questions in an online forum about China's relations with its neighbor.
"Over 4,000 questions were posted for me in just two hours," he said.
Many of the questions in the December discussion were tendentious.
"One Internet user asked me why ... we don't just declare war on Japan," he said.
Open hostility among the Chinese, especially the young, toward Japan is apparent in barbed newspaper and TV coverage and conversations with citizens.
Some experts suggest that China's leaders permit the venting of nationalist anger at Japan to divert attention from problems at home, including a widening gap between rich and poor, environmental degradation and the repression of views critical of the Communist Party's 56-year monopoly on power.
Gao, however, said authorities are worried by outbursts against Japan. He blamed jingoistic coverage in the news media - in China and Japan - for drumming up nationalist sentiments.
"The strong anti-Japanese feelings among young people are a headache for the government," said Gao, a research fellow at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. China's leaders "are trying their best to let people scale down their anger."
More than a dozen small-scale protests have taken place outside the Japanese Embassy in Beijing in the past two years. Anti-Japan activists report little resistance.
North Korea - which says it is building nuclear weapons as a deterrent against what it perceives as a possible U.S. invasion - also lashed out at Japan following Saturday's joint statement.
The official North Korean news agency said Japan has joined what Pyongyang calls Washington's "hostile" policy toward the North.
The commentary accused Japan of plotting with the United States to invade North Korea.
According to the Sustainable Construction and Transportation Network, South Korea had 6.4 pedestrian deaths for every 100,000 people as of 2002, nearly 10 times that of Sweden with 0.7 per 100,000. It was far higher than Germany with 1.1, Britain with 1.4, the United States with 1.7 and Japan with 2.2.

Seoul Strongly Regrets 'Takeshima Day' http://times.hankooki.com/lpage/200502/kt2005022316313853460.htm The government expressed ``strong regret’’ on Wednesday after a Japanese provincial council put forward legislation seen as an attempt to stake claim to South Korea’s easternmost islets. A group of members of the Shimane Prefectural Assembly submitted a bill earlier in the day for establishing a prefectural ordinance to designate Feb. 22 as ``Takeshima Day’’ to raise public awareness of Tokto in Japan. ``The South Korean government expresses strong regret over the ordinance, which is a clear infringement of the sovereignty of Tokto islets,’’ Lee Kyu-hyung, spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, said in a statement. 馬鹿チョソ↓ ``In all aspects of history, geography and international laws, it is clear that Tokto is South Korean territory,’’ Lee said. ``This kind of reckless act by a local municipality in Japan runs squarely counter to the sincere efforts by our government and people to strengthen understanding and friendship with Japan.’’
http://joongangdaily.joins.com/200502/23/200502232213055209900090409041.html From interviews with prostitutes, police said the crackdown last year forced the brothel owners and prostitutes to move to places such as Japan, Saipan, Australia and Canada. Many of the prostitutes said their moves were aided by organized criminal rings. Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency said yesterday seven people were arrested on charges of arranging travel and employment for 38 prostitutes in Australia, New Zealand and Canada. In return for arranging such overseas trips and jobs, the seven people took 120 million won ($119,500) from the prostitutes, the police said. According to the police, one of the prostitutes who had been working in Australia said brothel owners exploited her throughout her stay. In October, the 28-year-old prostitute left Korea, hoping she could earn enough money to pay her 70 million won debt to the brother owner in Seoul. She said the debt grew because of slow business after the crackdown last September. She told the police that she was forced to sign a contract. She reportedly had to serve five customers a day, but ended up earning only 200,000 won ($195) at the end of a month. While she was working in Australia, her debt in Korea snowballed because of a 60 percent annual interest rate. According to the police, landing prostitution work in Japan costs 10 million won and 12 million won in Saipan. Some prostitutes are also working in Europe and Russia, police said. Police said brothel owners seize the prostitutes' passports, effectively barring their escape. The prostitutes mostly work in brothels and bars owned by Koreans, the police said.
The Koreans like to pretend to be Japanese, so that is another aspect that sets the Korean massage parlor apart from Chinese or American massage parlors. Korean massage businesses may portray themselves as Japenese spas, and may adorn the property with waterfalls and Zen gardens, and wear the colorful embroidery of the Japanese traditions.

The woman, identified only by her family name Koo, worked in a red light street in the southern port of Yosu between October 2000 and March 2002. "She said she had sex with up to 10 men a day," and "more than half of her clients refused to use condoms," according to a police official in the southeastern city of Gimhae. Health authorities in Gimhae monitored Koo after she was first detected as having contracted HIV in 1998 but she left the city without informing the authorities. The woman is now an AIDS patient.

In the early nineties she was moved to the US legally through a sham marriage with an American GI and has served ever since as a Korean massage parlor prostitute in various locales stretching from Chicago and Houston to New York City1. →Mu Yung Shin is just one of several thousand Korean women abducted, raped, and virtually enslaved by the multimillion-dollar international prostitution network run by the Korean Killers, or KK. Korean Killers, and other major Korean gangs in the US such as Korean Power, based in New York, deal not only in prostitution, but in drug trafficking, extortion, and firebombings, mostly directed against the Korean community. Take Tae Sook Lee (not his real name), a longtime member of the Korean Killers based in Los Angeles' Koreatown. With two accomplices, called his "enforcers," Tae would visit Korean businesses in the area, mostly car dealerships, and demand payments of money ranging from $30,000 to $50,000. If threats and intimidation failed to net him the money, arson would result. According to Ray Futami, a detective with the LAPD, "If they [Korean business owners] didn't pay, Tae would send in his boys, his enforcers, and they would burn cars and dealerships." 文章長いので、続はここで読んで↓ http://home.uchicago.edu/~dae/korean_pride.htm

The Koreans, though, are a completely different matter. Even if you are a Korean planning to get married in Korea, your family register will be checked and if there's any evidence of undesirability (e.g. mental instability, criminals, sexual deviancy, living in a different town, not being called Kim, Park or Lee, etc.) then you're out of contention. Parental approval is a serious issue. A few days later, my gal and I were walking up a hill opposite the Hilton Hotel when a 50-something woman popped out of her cubbyhole and started screaming some thing at my girlfriend in Korean. ``What's she saying?'' I asked. ``Prostitute! Prostitute! Prostitute!'' my girlfriend replied without emotion. It was a relief to find out that my girlfriend's sister, who lives in Shinjuku, was normal. But . . . On one of my girlfriend's first visits to Tokyo after our relationship had started, we were invited to dinner at her Shinjuku sister's apartment. Also invited were Megumi, the girl who introduced us, and her boyfriend, Paul. But there was a proviso. ``Don't mention our relationship to my sister's husband,'' my girlfriend implored. ``You're just a friend -- of Megumi's.''
South Korean nabbed in illegal banking 2005-02-25 http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/english/doc/2005-02/25/content_419210.htm A South Korean is in police custody as a suspect in the first-ever, foreigner-run underground forex den unearthed by Chinese police, a Ministry of Public Security official said yesterday. Kim Cheon-Jae, 45, is being detained for running an underground bank in Qingdao, Shandong Province, that allegedly transferred around 240 million yuan (US$29 million) worth of money in and out of China illegally every year since 2001, according to Zhang Jing, deputy director of the ministry's Economic Crime Bureau. The police captured Kim and 17 others involved in the case on the spot, and seized 1.35 million yuan (US$163,000) worth of cash, in addition to some deposit certificates and bank cards, Zhang said. Kim's allegedly underground forex service was found to have reached several other cities in Shandong, as well as Shanghai and the northeastern province of Jilin,
and his business mainly catered to South Korean companies and personnel in those places. "Moreover, it in many cases facilitates criminal activities such as smuggling, drug trafficking and graft," he added. In particular, underground banks are found "tightly connected" with money laundering, he added.
朝鮮半島バイオテロキタ━━━━━━(゚∀゚)━━━━━━ !!!!! 1933 Human Flu in Korean Swine Raise Bioterror Issues, Recombinomics February 24, 2005 http://www.recombinomics.com/News/02240502/Swine_Bioterror.html Lab-made virus from 1940 may have found its way into Korean pigs. Genes from a flu strain created in a lab in 1940 have been found in samples taken from pigs in South Korea, a US biologist claims. In December, the biologist Henry Niman of Recombinomics, a biotechnology company in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, examined the data as part of an analysis of flu sequences. He concluded that the samples contained genes from a strain of human flu virus that was created decades ago by scientists experimenting with the virus that caused the global flu pandemic of 1918. The incident raises worrying questions about how the human flu genes got into a virus in a pig, says Niman. It could have happened naturally or in a lab accident — but it could also have resulted from experiments to produce a more deadly flu. "It could be bioterrorism," he says. the route of the sequences from lab to swine remains open, as does the possibility of bioterrorism. The inability to resolve the existence of the sequence after being in the public domain for almost 3 months also raises serious bioterrorism preparedness issues.

Lee complained on the website of the Korean Embassy in the Swiss capital of Berne two days later. He explained that police suspected the powdered nutritional supplements he was carrying were heroin. According to Lee, Swiss border guards dragged him into their office and although a drug test turned up negative forced him to kneel on the ground naked, kicking and slapping him several times when he did not immediately do as they told him.

AI reached its results based on International Civil Aviation Organization statistics such as numbers of accidents, fatalities, flights and passengers. The No. 1 airline was Australia's famously safe Qantas, while Turkish Airlines finished last. Finland's Finnair, Hong Kong's Cathay Pacific and Japan's ANA followed Qantas on AI's list. Virgin Atlantic and Southwest Airlines of the U.S. and British Airways rounded out the top 10. Turkish Airlines sat alongside Egypt Air, Air India and Taiwan's China Airlines at the bottom of the rankings.

Scanning every communication it transmitted that day, it found something suspicious sent by the Korean jet. The Seoul-to-New York flight was headed for a refueling stop in Anchorage. In a message sent at 11:08 a.m. ET to Korean Air's base, the pilots included the letters "HJK" — a code for hijacked. Instead of reassuring controllers, the Korean pilots declared themselves hijacked at 1:24 p.m. They set their transponder, which transmits information about the flight to radars, to the four-digit universal code for hijacked — 7500. Suddenly, more than an hour after the skies emptied over the lower 48 states, a routine flight became a potential new attacker. With two F-15s tracking Flight 85, NORAD officers told officials at the Anchorage center that they would shoot down the airliner if it continued, the sources said. Air traffic officials ordered the jet to turn wide of Alaska's largest city. Canadian air traffic officials agreed to let the jet land there, but its approach set off a new wave of evacuations.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/elsewhere/journalist/story/0,7792,881746,00.html Trial by new media on the eve of the tournament, he was given his marching orders as a result of a report that appeared in another country, another language and another medium. Fred had probably never heard of OhmyNews until the influential South Korean online news site brought about his downfall with a withering criticism of one of the World Cup preview stories that he had written for the Japan Times. That story - an introduction to Seoul - began with Fred reminiscing about being propositioned by a prostitute during his first visit to the South Korean capital. It was exactly the kind of old-fashioned, run-down, sleazy image that the host nation - which has never been more self-confident or assertive - did not want to present to the world. The URL of the offending article was sent anonymously to Bae Eul-sun of OhmyNews, who criticised the contents and the writer online in her own trademark aggressive style. Although Ms Bae had not called for Fred to lose his job, her article spawned a furious online campaign for his dismissal.

Fred Varcoe, 46, is a London-born journalist who has lived in, or spent extended periods of time in Saudi Arabia, Spain, Thailand, South Korea, and Japan. After working for nearly three years as a feature writer for Home and Away magazine in London, he joined The Japan Times in May 1987, specializing in rock music and sports and rising to the position of Sports Editor. After upsetting the Korean government with a piece on Seoul in the May 13, 2002, edition of The Japan Times, he was given the option of resigning or being fired. In order to maintain his "journalistic integrity," he refused to resign. He was dismissed from the company effective May 31 and was fired officially on July 4 for reasons that included "insulting the honor of South Korean women." He is married to a South Korean woman.
Nowadays many supermarkets and departments stores in Bangkok overflow with "Japanese food" such as sushi and green tea, in funny Japanese brand names. You may be surprised to know that they are not made by Japanese people. Actually, they are produced by Koreans or Taiwanese in Thailand. The Japanese traditionally shy away from large establishments. Rather, they prefer cosy, quiet bistros or restaurants. And they adopt city names, personal nicknames, etc, as brand names. I am not saying that the current abundance of "Japanese food" supported by large advertisements on TV and radios, is of substandard or inferior quality. I am writing only to let innocent Thai consumers know of the true identity of these products. KATSUMI SAITO
