North Korea banned Japanese supporters from bringing in "Rising Sun flag", banners, mobiles, GPS, etc. for FIFA World Cup Qualifier match held on November 15. Besides, after arrival at Pyongyang International Airport, Japanese soccer team was questioned by North Korean authority who held the team at the airport for 4 hours, thus giving the team the limited time to exercise. Only 30 minutes of exercise after they checked into the designated hotel.
Japanese soccer supporters were seen surrounded by North Korean soldiers armed with rifles. Japanese supporters looked almost like constrained and threatened at gunpoint. They just had to sit there. North Koreans were waving their national flags and were loudly booing while Japanese national anthem was played. And it was hardly heard at all. Even FIFA judges looked feared that North Koreans might stampede into the soccer field during the match. One of the Japanese supporters said "He was so scared that something terrbile would happen if Japan won the game."
Japan should submit a complaint to FIFA that FIFA should not have allowed a terrorist state to hold FIFA Qualifier matchin North Korea. FIFA should have chosen a neutral state instead since North Korea is the country where no democracy and fairness exist, posing an increasing threat to democracy and freedom in the Far East.
However, as observed in the match, the whole world has noticed some definite similarity between North Korea and South Korea in terms of their behaviors no other nations normally practice. It simply proves that not only North Korea but also South Korea regard Japan and her people as their enemy. Both Koreas have long remained outrageous.
Mr. Takashi Fujita, Representative of "Group Seeking the Government of Japan to Recognize Specified Missing Persons as Victims of Abduction by North Korea" tweets as follows:
Not only North Korean operatives but also organizations and accomplices in Japan are involved in carrying out abduction of the Japanese nationals. It is said that at least 10 of them were involved in abducting my elder brother Susumu Fujita. As organized and premeditated crime of abduction had been left ignored for long time, many Japanese nationals have been victimized by those criminals.
Their hideout called "Nishi-Arai Byouin = Nishi-Arai Hospital=西新井病院" has been still in business as if to say nothing has happened.
Mr. Takashi Fujita, Representative of "Group Seeking the Government of Japan to Recognize Specified Missing Persons as Victims of Abduction by North Korea" tweets as follows:
Confession made by a man involved in abducting my brother Mr. Susumu Fujita reveals how abduction of my brother was carried out by North Korea. Abductors fist injected drug into him, so as to paralyze him. Then, the paralyzed brother was taken as a patient to a hospital operated by the General Association of Korean Residents (North Korean citizens) in Japan, where he was confined until he gave up attempts to escape. He then was transferred to North Korea. There must be many more Japanese nationals abducted and taken to North Korea in the same manner.
Mr. Takashi Fujita, Representative of "Group Seeking the Government of Japan to Recognize Specified Missing Persons as Victims of Abduction by North Korea" tweets as follows:
Confession made by a man involved in abducting my brother Mr. Susumu Fujita reveals that "N" hospital operated by a North Korean in Tokyo Metropolitan area has been confirmed to have served as a base for executing abduction of the Japanese nationals. The most serious and vicious crime had been executed under the guise of "hospital" serving the general public. What's wrong with Japan still allowing such a hospital to continue its operation as if to say nothing has happened?
Japan's Territorial Issue "Takeshima": No one casts any doubts over Japan's territorial claim over Takeshima islets. However, it is reported that South Korea often turns a table upside down whenever Japan brings up Takeshima issue. Supopse you are working as a diplomat. How will you react if your counterpart all of a sudden stands up and turns a negotiating table upside down?
At North Korean schools in Japan, Korean boys have been reportedly taught that Japanese are not entitled to complain about abduction of the Japanese nationals since Japan coerced Koreans into residing in Japan in the past.
Assuming what their teaching is right in every respect (In fact, none was forced to live in Japan), both Japan and North Korea will soon reach a very amicable settlement over the abduction issue. That is, Japan will return all North Koreans back to North Korea in exchange for the Japanese victims still confined there.
Note: Many of Koreans still in Japan, whether they are Northern or Southern, smuggled themselves into Japan amid turmoil Japan experienced soon after the war simply because they were unable to survive in the Korean peninsula.
Both Koreas have been hostile to Japan for decades regardless of what Japan has done for them, including extension of grants, etc. Japanese, whether conservative or not, are now realizing that their efforts of improving relations with both Koreas may end fruitless simply because they both have failed to sincerely respond to Japan's desire for securing peace and stability in the Far East. No matter how much they have twisted around historical facts, it seems that Japan has upheld a policy of solving every issue in a concessional manner both Koreas claim to have existed, hoping that they will someday grow up to fully understand how much they have benefited from Japan and her people.
Now, many Japanese tweets suggest an irreversible course of action against South Korea. That is "Sever diplomatic ties with South Korea" over its unacceptable degree of fabrication shown in a number of issues South Korea has raised.
South Koreans often practice "Psittacism" by repeating "Colonial rule by Imperial Japan is the worst exploitation ever done in a history of mankind." Then, I always get closer to them and say to their faces "Would you say the same thing even after you have been exposed to realities and historical facts of what colonization really was ?" I show them comparative analyses of education systems, taxation systems, military budgets in the nations that experienced colonization such as Vietnam, India, nations in Latin America, etc.
Most of them then start mumbling because they are hard put to reply my question. Some get so emotional, lose their control, and fade away after kicking tables.

A North Korean defector living in Seoul, South Korea testified yesterday that Ms. Megumi Yokota (See a note below) had been alive in 2004.
The defector was told by an officer in charge of Japan at Wokers' Party of Korea (DPRK) that Ms. Megumi is alive but we can not let her go back to Japan since she has been exposed to secrecy.
The defector further stated that cremated remains handed over to Japan by DPRK at the working level meeting between Japan and North Korea on November 2004 was not hers but just fake.
Note:
Ms. Megumi Yokota was abducted on November 15, 1977 at the age of thirteen and apparently forced to help train North Korean spies to pass as Japanese citizens. In February 1997, information about Megumi's abduction was given to Yokota's parents from Tatsukichi Hyomoto by a phone call.In 2002, North Korea admitted that she and others had been abducted, but claimed that she had committed suicide on March 13, 1994 (originally announced as 1993 and later corrected to 1994) and returned what it said were her cremated remains. Japan stated that a DNA test proved they could not have been her remains, and her family does not believe that she would have committed suicide. She is believed to have been abducted by Sin Gwang-su.
One article making many Japanese laugh their heads off is the one written by a S. Korean economist who insists that Japan conclude unlimited currency swap agreement with S.Korea, guaranteeing that South Korea uses uninhibitedly Japanese Yen to secure U.S. dollars.
It is Swap. So, Japan is entitled to do the same but it is unlikely for Japan to do so. In a process of securing USD. S. Korea will exchange Japanese Yen for USD, thereby helping ease strength of JPY against USD while S. Korea will secure much needed USD.
However, unlimited swapping is expected to have limited impact on appreciation of Yen since Yen has been stronger due to financial crisis in Europe and uncertain U.S. economic recovery. Many Japanese see no justifiable reason why Japan has to help South Korea in FX.
Mr. Takashi Fujita, Representative of "Group Seeking the Government of Japan to Recognize Specified Missing Persons as Victims of Abduction by North Korea" tweets that a man in the photo possessed by a Korean man who defected North Korea in the summer of 2004 has been determined to be my missing elder brother Susumu Fujita.
tweets When Mid Niigata Prefecture Earthquake occurred in 2004, Koreans (South Koreans) publicly told those victimized by the quake "More Japanese should be killed." Koreans rejoiced at the news of Japan's train accident in 2005 by saying "More Japanese have just died." The Korean newspapers carried the news of "the Great Hanshin Earthquake in 1995" as a breaking news with a title "Divine Punishment".
They are truly despicable and uncivilized.
Below is a video showing Koreans holding a banner saying "We congratulate Japan on "Northeastern Quake."
Korean supporters of Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors have insulted Japan and her people by waving a banner saying "We all congratulate Japan and her people on an occurrence of "Northeastern Japan Major Quake" during a football match between Japanese football club(Cerezo Osaka) and Korean football club (Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors).
The entire world should have to worry about what Koreans might do next against those suffering from disasters, calamities, etc. , considering their behaviors as clearly evidenced in the following photo.
South Korea sent five humans and two dogs to Japan after Japan suffered a triple disaster. And, South Korea decided not to make donations because of mounting tension over Takeshima issue while Taiwan donated USD 18 billion (largest among all the donations made so far ) and China USD 10 million.
Despite Japan's techincal and financial assistance extended to South Korea in the last half century, and investment and development during 36 years annexation of Korea by Japan , South Korea has returned nothing but evil for all the good things Japan has done so far.
Who is lying about the Korean past? Who benefits from the act of lying?
Before exposing yourself to the article below, you should watch this video in which Mr. Toshio Tamogami, Chief of Staff of Japan's Air Self-Defense Force from March 2007 to November 2008 discusses Japan's relationship with the Korean peninsula from 1910 to 1945.
I list major points he discusses in this video.
1. The Korean peninsula was always in turmoil because of interventions by China and Russia more than 100 years ago, thus destabilizing the East Asia.
2. The year 2010 is the 100th anniversary of annexation of Korea by Japan. Japan-Korea annexation treaty was signed 100 years ago and was fully recognized by the international community in those days.
3. The annexation is often misinterpreted as colonization widely practiced in the world by the western powers. Japan's annexation can be defined as almost like merger of equals in business terms, thereby securing the equal rights to the Koreans. Their life was totally different from those living in the western colonies.
The Koreans were in fact admitted to the military academy, thus producing high-ranking Korean officers who commanded the lower-ranking Japanese soldiers. Some Korean officers later became Generals.
I remember Korean Lieutenant General Hon Saekuand Lieutenant General Kuribayashi known for Iwo Jima battle were graduates of the same class at the Japanese Military Academy.
Lieutenant General Hon Saeku was charged with ill-treatment of POWs and sentenced to death for what he did not do at all at Philippines Military Tribunal. He was however told that his life can be saved because he is Korean. He flatly refused it and said "I am Lieutenant General of the Imperial Japanese Army."
4. Japan established 9 Imperial Universities (7 in Japan, 1 in Korea and 1 in Taiwan) in those days. Two Imperial Universities in Korea and Taiwan were opened even before Osaka and Nagoya Imperial Universities were established.
5. After the end of WWII, Japan asked if the Koreans in Japan would desire to return to the Korean peninsula Those wishing to do so were returned at their own will. Those who desired to stay in Japan are now called the Korean residents with special privileges in Japan.
6. South Korea declared to be independent in 1948. Treaty on Basic Relations between Japan and the Republic of Korea was signed in 1965, thereby settling all the issues existing between two nations with the payment of $800 million in grants and soft loans and at the same time Japan abandoned its assets worth $50 billion left in South Korea. The financial and technical assistance extended to South Korea under the treaty helped South Korea develop its economy.
Watch this video showing Korea before and after its annexation by Japan.
Before annexation 1. Seoul was almost like nothing but some poor villages.
2. Korean women wore traditional clothes with their breasts exposed. Only women who gave birth to a son were permitted to wear the special attire. Those women were so proud of wearing this attire with their breasts sticking out in the public.
After annexation 1. The city of Seoul was modernized with street cars, department stores, electricity, sewage system, railway system, dams, industrial complex, etc.
2. Japan placed much emphasis on education by establishing thousands of schools throughout the Korean peninsula. Japan developed text books in Hangul and popularized Hangul in Korea because only a few percents of the population was educated.
The above is only a small portoin of Japan's contributions to the development of the Korean peninsula which both South Korea and North Korea have so far denied.
With what you have just watched in your mind, read what's written below and you will have some idea of what is true and what is not.
Mr. Kim Mǎn Zhe (金満哲) stated about his own country and people is True? This is a question being often asked by many Japanese bloggers, which I recently came across. I will tentatively translate his statement into English since a large number of the Japanese bloggers have shown a keen interest in his description of South Korea and its people.
South Korean Critic Mr. Kim Mǎn Zhe 金満哲 says:
My people, South Koreans are all liars. I feel so ashamed of this fact and find it regrettable.
South Korea has been modernized all by itself? Don't be stupid! The modernization of South Korea has been achieved by Japan with an input of enormous investment and human resources into our country.
South Korea resisted the Japanese administration during 36 years of annexation? You must be kidding! My people South Koreans have willingly submitted themselves to the Japanese administration like donkeys. That is how it really was. Although there was very small resistance, everyone from top to bottom had admired Japan and had tried to become Japanese.
I was so shocked and became speechless to know that South Koreans believe in the achievement of South Korea's independence all by itself. No Koreans desired to be independent from Japan but the United States of America forced us to become independent. It is a truth.
"Hangan Miracle!" Don't make me laugh! The economic development of South Korea has been achieved with an enormous amount of economic and technical assistance extended by Japan under the name of compensations. Any uncivilized people would have achieved economic growth if assisted as much as we have.
The Japanese culture has grown out of Korea? You really must be kidding? Just remember that we had no culture at all before Korea was annexed to Japan! Before 1910 annexation, our peninsula was filled with the people living like beggars.
The present Korea is a house built on sand not even built by us but built by others. And, the house is full of vainglory, hypocrisy, distortion and arrogance. All we can see here are mimic, dependency and distortion.
Without realizing what the true qualities of Korea are, it seems that Koreans both in South Korea and in Japan must have lost their minds.
I have to admit that the whole thing is nothing but shame.
The following is a description of South Korea and its people in Japanese by Mr. Kim Mǎn Zhe (金満哲) .
Note: The economic growth South Korea achieved in 1970s is called "Hangan Miracle". The above article is subject to change whenever the author finds it necessary to add, correct, delete, etc.
The most decent Japanese citizens staged two demonstrations, one in Osaka protesting against Kao company who has been one of the major clients to Fuji TV network said to be functioning as a South Korean propaganda TV network and the other in Tokyo against the possible execution of financial assistance to North Korean senior high schools in Japan (under free senior high school education scheme) and demanding the elimination of South Korean prostitutes from Japan.
In South Korea, prostitutes have staged demonstrations in Seoul, demanding the government of south korea to legalize prostitution.
Note: Prostitution is illegal in Japan under anti-prostitution law (soliciting, loitering for hire).
suzu_hana4ever tweets Korean citizens in Japan have been making threatening calls to Mr. Shouji NIshida, Liberal Democratic Party. Don't let them terrorize Japanese Parliamentarians! Japan is governed by laws and principles of democracy. Not like Koreas! @YonhapNews @TheKoreaHerald @KBSWorldRadio @EnglishChosun
The 4th Spy Satellite to monitor North Korean military facilities, etc. has been placed on the launch pad last night at the Tanekashima Space Center in southwestern Japan.
It is expected that the 4th Satellite named "Kogaku 4", literally meaning "Optical 4" will be launched at 13:36 this afternoon.
The satellite was first designed and produced soon after North Korea tested ballistic missiles in 1998 which drew international condemnation.
It is the internationally recognized fact that the Korean peninsula has been a great source of generating "pain in the ass" although it seems that the people on the peninsula have never realized it. One good solution the decent world came up with in 2007 was to let them realize it by keeping its rep. posted as UN Chief.
Regrettably, they seem to have totally failed to realize a very considerate and concessional expression of sympathy toward them. The only thing the decent world should expect is nothing but disappointment.
Turning readers' attention to the stated aims of the United Nations, they are to facilitate cooperation in international law, international security, economic development, social progress, human rights, and achievement of world peace. And, UN system is based on five principal organs, one of which is the International Court of Justice.
On Oct. 24, 2007 (UN Day), Ban Ki-moon prepared and distributed pamphlets "Welcome to KOREA" at the concert held by him in the capacity of UN Chief and attended by 1,600 diplomats and others.
The pamphlets prepared and distributed by UN Chief BanKi-Moon from S. Korea describes Takeshima islets as being part of S. Korea and Sea of Japan as East Sea, taking advantage of his position as UN Chief.
Despite a strong protest from Japan, he did not bother neither to take the pamphlets back from the attendants nor to apologize to Japan for his lack of decency in the important international event, knowing that the Government of Japan has been demanding the government of south korea to appear at the International Court of Justice over Takeshima issue for decades, and knowing that "Sea of Japan" is an internationally recognized naming except where terrorists live in. Namely, South Korea and North Korea.
And, he even stated to his people that he would do his best to contribute to the development of his own country "South Korea" when he visited S. Korea in July 3, 2008.
Sack UN Chief Ban Ki-moon over his unfair practice at UN and strongly biased toward Japan and her people!
A Profile of Ban Ki-moon:
A well-known anti-Japan South Korean who served as 33rd Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade, South Korea from January 17, 2004 to November 10, 2006. He is currently serving as 8th Secretary-General of the United Nations. He assumed office on January 1, 2007.

Denuclearization, if supported by anti-Japan elements, should be carefully scrutinized in view of national security and national interests.
Ex. Son of Softbank supports promotion of S. Korean nuclear power generation while denouncing Japan's nuclear power generation. Mr. Son (naturalized Korean) even apologized to south korean pres. Lee for what happened at Fukushima Daiichi, branding Japan as a criminal state. He further proposed that Japan should import electricity from South Korea through underwater cables connecting Japan to the Korean peninsula as if to say that Japan has become incompetent to satisfy its own power requirements for maintaining Japan's economy.
Not only Fukushima but also Hiroshima and Nagasaki should be reconsidered in view of non-nuclear proliferation. U.S and its allies must admit that they tested effects of nuclear bombs, using the Japanese race as guinea pigs. It is said that after the war was over, U.S. encouraged Japan to introduce nuclear power generation into Japan in an attempt to diffuse anti-U.S. sentiments based on a concept of "A poison (nuclear power generation) drives out a poison (memories of massacres in Hiroshima and Nagasaki)."
However, it seems that the concept U.S. is said to have applied to Japan has proven to be a failure since the recent Fukushima Daiichi disaster has reminded Japanese of Hiroshima and Nagasaki massacres.
What Japan will do in the area of power generation remains to be seen.
tweets South Koreans inhumanely treat Japanese nationals living there, depriving them of "employment right", "right to join Social Security Scheme", "right to register as residents", "right to access bank loans", "right to obtain IDs", "right to subscribe a telephone line", "right to possess fixed assets", "right to receive social welfare", "right to work at national government and local governments", "right to open bank accounts (including money transfer, etc.)", etc. The above is only part of human rights violations being practiced in South Korea against Japanese nationals.

I understand that they hate Japan and her people. However, they consider "money" is exceptional. If they really have pride of being Koreans, stop begging in Japan and go back to North Korea ! Cadge money from "Dear Leader" Kim Jong-Il.
9 North Korean defectors rescued in the Sea of Japan off the Noto peninsula, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan has been allowed to land in Japan.
A North Korean defector who claims to be a leader of 8 other defectors admitted that he is a fisherman engaged in fishing activities for the Korean People's Army (KPA) and expressed a desire to travel to South Korea. Upon submission of a request for a temporary stay in Japan, Immigration Control Bureau of the Ministry of Justice has granted them temporary landing in Japan. They have been transferred to Oomura Immigration Control Center, Nagasaki Prefecture.
The Ministry of Justice will question them over why they desire to travel to South Korea, what they were doing in North Korea, etc. The Ministry will approve of their stay in Japan and will send them to South Korea unless the Ministry finds them in violation of anything particular.
Mr. Kitazawa, Minister for Self-Defense, the Government of Japan confered with his counterpart Mr. Kim of the government of south korea on September 10. They have agreed to discuss ACSA (Acquisition and Cross Servicing Agreement) and GSOMIA (General Security of Military Information Agreement) applicable to activities to be carried out by Japan Self-Defense Forces in the area of international cooperation.
The Democratic Party of Japan has constantly been so critical of Japan's involvement in international cooperation activities such as dispatch of Japan Self-Defense Forces to the conflict zones when the Liberal Democratic Party was in power. However, when it comes to defending south korea, the party and its members seem to have completely forgotten their words and deeds. It appears that they are now more militarlistic than the previous government ruled by the Liberal Democratic Party.
Today Tsushima Coast Guard Office has arrested Lee aged 48, South Korean captain of pole and line fishing vessel in exclusive economic zone (EEZ) in the Sea of Japan off Tsushima city, Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan for violation of fishing sovereignty right.
The 9th Regional Coast Guard Headquarters received "118" call (dial 118 for help at the sea) from local fishermen as saying that "an unfamiliar boat" is sailing in the Sea of Japan off the Noto peninsula, Wajima city, Ishikawa Pref., Japan at around 07:25 am today. The Japan Coast Guard airplane spotted a 8 meter long wooden boat carrying 9 people (3 males, 3 females, 3 infants) 25 kilometers west of Tamasu city, Ishikawa Pref. No injured and sick people have been reported. They reportedly said "We came from North Korea."
The fishing boat, when spotted in the Sea of Japan, was sailing with an engine but not equipped with GPS. None of 9 people was wearing life jacket. They still had small quantity of food supplies like rice, pickles, and 60 litters of oil but drinking water.
They reportedly left Chongjin 5 days ago on September 8 for South Korea. However, they came to Japan because of currents in the Sea of Japan this time of year. In the last few years, small wooden boats with Hangul written on them have been washed ashore one after another in the coastal areas of Japan. Whereabouts of passengers have not known at all.
Chongiin, the third largest city of North Korea is known for trading with China and fishing. A father of the family who defected 4 years ago says that we didn't defect just because we had no foods but because we wanted to have freedom.
A leader of defectors said "I am a member of the Korean People's Army (KPA) and 8 others are my family members and relatives." As food situation has worsened this year even in the army, a number of defectors has increased. we all should focus on what the leader of defectors now being questioned will say about his rank in the army, etc.
They have not been allowed to land on Japan yet.

An increasing number of young Japanese has now become aware of Fuji TV promoting South Korean propaganda designed to subtly send subliminal messeages to viewers.
On August 6, one guy appeared on TV program, wearing a T-shirt with words "Little Boy" printed on its front which many young people consider done intentionally to grate on Japanese nerves. As you all know, "Little Boy" is an A-bomb dropped on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945.
What's making them so upset about this time is a message written on a fake magazine used in one of Fuji TV's programs. The magazine with a message on its front was shown dumped in a waste busket. The message says "Jap18", a Korean slang meaning "F-ck Jap". Three persons have been identified as suspects, one of whom is very good at the Korean language.
Many young Japanese are keeping their eyes on this issue to see what it will develop into.
