Anti-government protests become mob in Sri Lanka
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.
Sea route to Europe
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.
Ukraine is a key point of land routes
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.
Collapse of Belt and Road Policy
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.
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.
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.
The Great East Asian War, the War of Liberation.The result of modernization under Japanese rule is the independence of Asian countries. Columbus: Discovering the Americas in 1492
Vasco da Gama: Reach Cape of Good Hope in 1488
1600 East India Company Established
Suez Canal 1859 (start of construction) Completed 1869.
Siberian Railway 1850 (start of construction) 1902 (completed except for part 1) Completed 1904
The movement of white people to colonize Asia began in earnest in 1600.I took a route to Asia around the southernmost Cape of Good Hope in Africa.This is to bring Asian spices and products to Europe for business.Until then, trade with Asia had to be mediated by the Islamic world, and was looking for a direct way to Asia.Colonization is progressing one after another in southwestern Asia, and China is also leased one after another.The opening of the Suez Canal made it even more accessible, contributing greatly to the colonization of Asia.
Suez Canal is a short-cut canal that does not have to detour the southern tip of Africa.The Siberian Railway was built to colonize Far East Asia.
Russia plans to colonize Asia by land because it has the farthest route to Asia and freezes its ports in winter.Vladivostok, the final destination of the Siberian Railway, is just a stone's throw away from the Korean Peninsula.This move was a prerequisite for the Russo-Japanese War.The Siberian railway was completed in 1904 during the Russo-Japanese War.There Baltic Fleet is scheduled to enter the port .
From Japan's point of view, Asian countries at that time could not resist and became slaves to the West.This is not the case if countries maintain their independence.Why do white people come to Japan, the farthest island country from the West?If the country on the way is functioning properly, that's not the case.In other words, the independence of Asian countries will protect Asian countries from the West, and as a result, Japan will be protected.
At that time, there was no concept of cooperation between countries in Asia.On the contrary, I never imagined fighting a big white man.form an Asian allianceThis is the idea of the Greater East Asian Co-prosperity Circle.Japan chose to fight.We will defeat white forces one after another and spread modern civilization to Asian countries.
The Great East Asian War was to liberate Asian countries from white colonial rule and give them national strength.
In Asian countries governed by Japan, government management and administrative roles, tax thinking, armaments, and education systems were introduced as frameworks for creating countries.White colonial rule does not do such a thing.What happens if slaves learn how to use weapons when they begin to acquire knowledge and know how to run a country?You can't do this under colonial rule.Colonial management can only be done by giving the people of the country what they can live in and working from morning till night.
There are opinions that Japan intended to rule forever, but it would not be reasonable to explain the development of each country under Japanese rule.If you look at the white colonial rule of Malaysia, Indonesia, and other countries that have been under white rule for four centuries, you can see clearly.
Taiwan, the earliest country to enter Japanese rule, has a rule of 50 years, but there are no other litigation issues such as the Japanese Military Sexual Slavery issue or any friction at present.It would be good to investigate Japan's rule of Taiwan and the friendly relationship between Japan and Taiwan after the war.
You can't see anything in world war unless you look at it from the perspective of world history.I think we have to go back at least to A.C 1600.The history of Japan and South Korea alone is just walking around in one place.

Asian countries that experienced Japanese rule gained national consciousness and national strength, fought against European countries that returned after the war, and gained independence one after another.
The truth of the people's land - the people's land, the next day, the travel, the world, the political world, the separation of people, the separation of people, and the future.
The first international rejection of colonialism in the international community was the adoption of the UN Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples on December 14, 1960. ”. The United Nations, which criticized the Greater East Asia War, tolerated colonial policy for 15 years after the end of the war. Moreover, this is only a declaration; in fact, he designated 1990-2000 as the decade for the abolition of colonialism.
Although some people say that the abolition of colonialism is based on humanitarian considerations, in reality, a major factor is that it has become economically irrational.
As the world's capital markets continue to improve, it is better to make profits by acquiring only companies with high growth potential than to control an entire country. There is little risk as it is easy to withdraw if growth stops. If a country does not grow even after investing capital, it will not increase profits even if it becomes a colony.
In 1919, Japan submitted the ``Bill for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination'' to the League of Nations. This was the first proposal in the international community calling for the elimination of racial discrimination itself. Forty-one years later, the international community passed a resolution to abolish colonial policy in the future.
This is an international framework for decolonization, not racial discrimination. In fact, the Jim Crow laws that legalized racial discrimination in the United States were abolished in 1964. Apartheid was abolished in South Africa in 1994.
