If you are a keen-eyed observer of the comfort women issue, you will find that the comfort women statue is a Voodoo Doll intended to cast revenge spells upon the nation and people of Japan.

The statues are built in a malicious attempt to cause harm in many ways: to tarnish the reputation of Japan; to stoke hatred and hostility against Japan; or to drive a wedge into the bilateral relationship of the country in question and Japan.

The inscription installed along with the stature is invariably wrong. The statement is written by demagogues and not based on the historical facts.

The Japanese people are very tired of persistent demands of apology and compensation from all corners of the world.

We have our own opinions of entering into the war, and all events that happened during the course of the war, although we do not say them loudly since Americans and other people of Western Powers have no ears to listen to them.

The author considers that the Asian Womenfs Fund, by which Japan delivered JPY 2 million plus amount of money per person, along with bilateral or multilateral treaties since 1951 San Francisco Peace Treaty, solved all problems remained since WWII. Older people may have a grudge, or you may want to show your defiance against Japan.....Thatfs fine. However, they have no right to sow discord among younger generations and deprive the oppurtunity to have better future of both countries, much less eternally persecute the present-day Japanese who were not born during or before the war, by spreading baseless rumors and hearsays.

At least, when your claim may cause serios damage to the reputation of others, you should show hard evidences that corroborate your claim, instead of engraving your own version of one-sided story on the stone under the cover of womenfs human rights at war, Japanese atrocities during the WWII, as many as 200,000 girls forced into sexual slavery, or any other mud-slinging hoaxes and mumbo jumbo.

While we are faced with one fraud after another, on April 28, the metropolitan government of Manila made a right choice. The government removed the statue from the Roxas Boulevard, Manila.

President Rodrigo Duterte supported the removal, saying that gIt is not our policy of the government to antagonize other nations.......That issue, insofar as I am concerned, that is over.h gThat is painful if you keep on bringing up.... and you start to imagine how they were treated badly. But Japan has apologized to the Filipinos and they have certainly made much more in terms of reparations,h he added.
