Amid sorrows, worries, and anxieties resulting from the unprecedented triple disaster in Japan, there is one particular nation many of the people have been focused on. The nation widely known for its fabrication and copycatting know-hows has launched another fabrication attempt to make the whole world believe its territorial claims for Takeshima 竹島 by announcing its planned construction of a structure nearby Takeshima islets.
The Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) who had achieved an overwhelming victory over the Democratic Party of Japan in the local government elections held the last Sunday decided to strongly protest against South Korea over the planned construction since many people here believe that the Kan cabinet has failed to represent the people of Japan at all.
The LDP plans to demand South Korea to stop the planned construction and to propose a ministerial meeting on Takeshima issue.
Mr. Hiroyuki Hosoda, 70th and 71th Chief Cabinet Secretary, a politician of the Liberal Democratic Party, a member of the House of Representatives in the Diet (national legislature) voiced his opinion in much stronger terms that Japan should refuse to accept any donations to the disaster stricken areas from South Korea and for the Japanese Government officials to meet South Korean Ambassador to Japan in response to irrational action to be taken by South Korea.
It seems quite reasonable that Mr. Hiroyuki Hosoda has suggested that Japan should take a tougher line against South Korea because in cyberspace, one can observe that many South Koreans have insulted Japan and her people as evidenced in the following:
Lead activist Choi Jae-ik shouted, ”We made warmhearted donations, and all we got in return is a distortion of history,” lead activist Choi Jae-ik shouted during the rally. “We deplore Japan’s ungrateful behaviour.”
Japan should clarify its position over Takeshima isles by stating as follows:
South Korea in fact invaded Japan by illegally occupying Takeshima islets on January 18, 1952 without declaring "War" against Japan at all, and it still continues its illegal occupation of Takeshima islets, clearly violating the international laws. Japan should demand that South Korea unconditionally return Takeshima islets back to Japan with deep apology over its invasion and compensation for the damages done to Japan and her people.
