Japan supporting Nepal
Nepal shares a border with China and is a country that has been left behind in the development of Asia. Lumbini in Nepal is also the birthplace of Buddha, and today there are many Hindus. Is there a reason for the Chinese Communist Party's exclusion of Buddhism and Hinduism as part of its economic isolation? Japan has provided a lot of assistance to Nepal. Nepal ranks third in terms of international students studying in Japan.
The status of girls is still low
It is still difficult for girls to attend school in rural areas of Nepal. Once they get married, they leave the house, and until then they are essential workers, and there is no economic reason for families to send their daughters to school. A man from Nepal who studied abroad at a Japanese university establishes a school in a village and goes to inspect it with Japanese people, but he runs into the wall of family circumstances in Nepal, and a girl who wants to attend school is unable to understand her father's understanding. I can't attend school because I can't get it. She goes there to persuade her father, a Nepali and a Japanese, to allow her to attend school.
Japan continued to build schools in Asia
During the Japanese colonial period, Japan established many schools in Asia. The same goes for the Korean Peninsula. There was a cultural and year-round barrier that is currently occurring in Nepal, and the Japanese had to repeat the task of persuading each child's parents about education forever. This includes not only the Korean Peninsula, but also all countries under Japanese rule, such as Taiwan, Indonesia, and Malaysia. The first step is to improve the literacy rate. Historically, in Japan, many private schools called terakoya were established in towns because it would be inconvenient if you could not read, and it is said that the literacy rate was already at 80% in the Edo period.
The Korean Peninsula had an overwhelmingly low literacy rate
Before the annexation of Japan and South Korea, the literacy rate on the Korean Peninsula was overwhelmingly low. It is said that 80% of the commoners other than the yangban were illiterate. When it comes to slaves, it is devastating. If you can't read, you can't study. Japan introduced a school education system on the Korean Peninsula, abolished the class system, and created an environment where all children could attend school. The teachers themselves visited the homes of parents who, for various reasons, were unable to send their children to school.
Society will not change with institutions alone
Just because we say we're going to abolish the class system starting tomorrow doesn't mean it will disappear the next day. It is said that slaves existed on the Korean Peninsula even in the 1930s, and there were still many children who could not attend school. It is important that many Japanese people not only introduced the system but also persuaded the people to change the common beliefs that had lasted for hundreds of years in order for the system to actually operate. is.
POINT It is said that Korea was confiscated and enslaved by Japan, but where are the colonies that abolished the class system and introduced school education?

If you look at the Americas, you can understand what Asia was like at the time - an Asia that was in the grip of Western colonial policy on a global scale.
If we look at the Americas today, we can see the colonial policies of the time and then Asia. Are there any native countries in the Americas?
North America is mainly England, France, and the Netherlands. South America includes Spain and Portugal. The countries that currently exist in the Americas were countries that were able to go to sea during the Age of Discovery.
Were there any German or Italian colonies in the Americas? They cannot reach the Atlantic Ocean unless they pass through other countries' waters. Because its ports were frozen in the winter, Russia built the Trans-Siberian Railway on the continent and headed toward a colonial policy in Northeast Asia.
The terminus of the Trans-Siberian Railway is Vladivostok, just a stone's throw from the Korean Peninsula. If we look at the composition of World War II in Europe, we can see that it was a war between countries pursuing colonial policies and other countries. In other words, the economic disparity created by colonial policy is at the root of the problem.
The dominant ethnic groups in the Americas include the British, French, Dutch, Spanish, and Portuguese.
What if we look at Asia? Similarly, it was a colony of England, Spain, the Netherlands, France, and Portugal. Asia achieved independence one after another after the end of the war, so the Americas and Asia are in different environments, but if we look at their history, they were both part of the same web of colonial policy.
The Japan-Germany-Italy Tripartite Pact is a non-interference pact that states that neither side will interfere in wars in Europe between Germany and Italy, and wars in Asia between Japan and Japan. Japan had a common interest in the war to eliminate white colonies from Asia.
Germany and Italy, which were lagging behind in colonial policy, waged war in Europe, and Japan fought against white colonial rule in Asia.
If you look at the colonial policies in Asia during World War II, you can see the same faces as those in the current white homelands of the Americas.
Anti - government protests in Sri Lanka become more active ? debt - ridden economy to China. Will the OBOR collapse on a global scale?
Protests against the government have continued in Sri Lanka, and some are said to have become mobs. It is said that the stress of the people has reached its peak while the tourism industry has been sluggish due to the influence of the corona and the economy is on the verge of a shortage of dollars. President Gotabaya Rajapaksa issued a state of emergency on April 1 and issued a nighttime ban, but the people broke it and demonstrated at night. At the root of the Sri Lankan economy is a large amount of debt to China. Sri Lanka fell into the "debt trap" of China's Belt and Road policy, and Hambantota Harbor became China's concession for 99 years. The Belt and Road Initiative provides non-repayable funds to emerging economies through AIIB to curb trade key points in those countries. If the Belt and Road Initiative is realized, those countries will be prosperous, so it is easy to repay the debt. Therefore, it is theorized that if we borrow money to improve the environment, we can play an important role in the Belt and Road Initiative, but due to the deterioration of US-China relations, the Belt and Road Initiative has run into a deadlock. In other words, only the debt exists.
Deterioration of China-India relations has greatly retreated the Belt and Road Initiative to escape from China to the Indian Ocean. The birth of Myanmar's military junta has been whispered by China's support, allowing China to enter the Bay of Bengal through Myanmar. And Sri Lanka in the southeastern part of India will be a necessary relay point for navigating the Indian Ocean and the Arabian Sea. If the Sri Lankan riots developed and an anti-Chinese government was born, China wouldn't mind. The ocean route south of China could be disrupted.
Kyiv, Ukraine, which is currently at war, is a key point north of the Belt and Road Initiative. In June 2020, the "Central Europe Group Line" of the freight line connecting Wuhan and Kiev is operating. Kyiv has become a key link between Europe and China, and the relationship between Ukraine and China has become closer. Ukraine will provide China with former Soviet aircraft carriers, fighters and missiles, and China will provide economic support to Ukraine. China says it got everything it wanted from Ukraine. And China is the number one major trading partner of Ukraine aiming for a de-Russian economy. Ironically, the weapons that are trying to threaten Japan and Taiwan will be obtained by the Chinese army via Ukraine.
China's response to the Ukraine issue is ambiguous because of the Belt and Road policy. The truth is that I didn't want him to have a problem in Kyiv. The northern land route is destroyed by the Ukrainian crisis. And while many Eastern European countries, which I consider tomorrow, are also dependent on the Chinese economy, criticisms are concentrated on China's vague attitude toward the Ukraine issue. If Russia gets Kyiv, Belt and Road will have to partner with Russia. China would think Ukraine is better than Russia, which is difficult to control. On a global scale, the Belt and Road Initiative is heading for collapse for various reasons.
Former King Sihanouk of Cambodia came to Japan to encourage Emperor Showa after the war and renounced his right to claim post-war reparations from Japan - Japan-Cambodia Friendship Bridge.
Former King Sihanouk of Cambodia was the first king to visit Japan to encourage Emperor Showa, who was depressed after Japan's defeat in World War II. In 1954, the Cambodian government declared to the Japanese Embassy in Cambodia that it had waived its right to claim post-war reparations against Japan. After the upheaval caused by Pol Pot and the dictator's rise to power, Japan's Self-Defense Forces rushed in with international aid.
The Self-Defense Forces have achieved great results in areas such as demining and road maintenance. In 1963, the Japan-Cambodia Friendship Bridge was built with support from Japan. Japanese engineers completed the Friendship Bridge in the face of landmines, unexploded bombs, bomb threats from Pol Pot's guerrillas, and death threats against Japanese people. It remained closed due to the civil war between the Pol Pot faction, but it was reopened on February 25, 1994.
The Japan-Cambodia Friendship Bridge is depicted on the back of the 1,000 riel banknote. The only place in Southeast Asia where tap water is drinkable is Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia. This was made possible with assistance from Kitakyushu City's water supply facilities. The current king, King Norodom Sihamoni, received the nickname TOKYO-chan from his father, former King Sihanouk.
Japan is supported and trusted in Asia, which experienced the Age of Discovery, the transformation of the world, and the Japanese colony.
The history of the world has changed drastically in the Age of Discovery. Asia was colonized one after another, exploited and treated like slaves. This is a relative view, compared to Europeans. Although it was colonized, it developed economically and life improved not a little. This is a real feeling of Asian countries. The reason why Japan is supported by Asian countries is that Japan did not enslave Asians and that it did everything necessary to build a modern nation with the power of its own people. I was educated about it. As a result, after the end of the war, Asian nations resisted the re-invasion of the West and became independent nations one after another. Asian countries colonized by Europe do not request an apology from Europe, nor do they make a request to Japan. This is the difference between whether or not you feel that you are moving forward, and whether or not you have a sense of ownership.
Montesquieu's understanding of race - Compare the words of the man who advocated separation of powers with the Greater East Asia Joint Declaration.
"The people in question are completely black from head to toe. And they have such flat noses that it's almost impossible to sympathize with them. They are extremely intelligent beings. I cannot agree with the idea that God could have placed a soul, a good soul, in such a pitch-black body."
"Proof that the Negro has no common sense is shown in the fact that he prizes glass necklaces more than gold, which is of such great importance among civilized nations. It is impossible to assume that they are human beings, because the more we assume that they are human, the more people will begin to think that we ourselves are not Christians. Because I’m deaf.”
The following is a joint declaration made at the Greater East Asia Conference held by Japan to unite the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere.
In the first place, the basis of establishing world peace is for each country in the world to find its own place, rely on and help each other, and share the joy of prospering together. However, for the sake of their own prosperity, the United States and Britain oppress other countries and peoples, and in particular they relentlessly invade and exploit Greater East Asia, exposing their ambition to enslave Greater East Asia. , and finally tried to fundamentally overturn the stability of Greater East Asia. This is the cause of the Greater East Asia War. The countries of Greater East Asia will cooperate with each other to fight through the Greater East Asia War, liberate the countries of Greater East Asia from the shackles of the United States and Britain, ensure their self-existence, and support the Greater East Asia based on the following platform. We hope that this will contribute to the establishment of world peace. The countries of Greater East Asia will work together to ensure stability in Greater East Asia and build an order of coexistence and mutual prosperity based on morality. The countries of Greater East Asia respect each other's independence and independence, and cooperate with each other to establish friendship in Greater East Asia. The countries of Greater East Asia will mutually respect their traditions, develop the creativity of each ethnic group, and enhance the culture of Greater East Asia. The countries of Greater East Asia will work together closely on a mutually beneficial basis to develop their economies and increase the prosperity of Greater East Asia. The countries of Greater East Asia will deepen exchanges with all countries, eliminate racial discrimination, widely exchange cultures, and willingly release their resources, thereby contributing to the development of the world.
If there are people who think that democracy has eliminated racial discrimination and that we should follow the example of white countries, that is a completely wrong historical understanding. Fierce resistance by people of color, mainly in Japan, brought an end to colonialism, and the international community then moved toward the elimination of racial discrimination. This is the truth.
In 1960, the United Nations adopted a declaration granting independence to the colonies, and the United Nations adopted the Act on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination for the first time in 1965 as the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination. Japan was the first country in human history to submit a bill to the international community to eliminate racial discrimination, and that was in 1919.
