The Mighty Okinawan Lion!

Ryukyu: Studying the ‘Okinawa’ Name! (22.2.2024)

I was asked about the history and meaning of the name ‘Okinawa’ and ‘Ryukyu’ – both Japanese in origin – but premised upon older Chinese ideograms. At the above link, there is my research regarding the forensic study of the ideograms involved and my conclusions premised upon these findings. The term ‘Okinawa’ appears to be a post-1872 CE construct – at least in regard to the forming of the Japanese Prefecture of that name. Generally, Chinese literature does not use this term – but prefers the far older ‘Lu Qiu’ designation which dates back around 1500-years.

Comrade Kim Jo Yomg - DPRK!

DPRK: Kim Jo Yong – Vice Department Director of Central Committee – Workers’ Party of Korea – Press Statement! (17.2.2024)

Japanese Prime Minister Kishida reportedly said at a recent meeting of the Budget Committee of the House of Representatives that he badly feels the need to boldly change the present situation prevailing between Japan and the DPRK. He also underlined the need to actively establish relations with the President of the State Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) – adding that he is now making sustained efforts to do so through different channels.

Puyi Loved the USSR!

When the Last Emperor of China Applied to Join the Communist Party! (14.2.2024)

On August 19th, 1945, Puyi was in a Waiting Room attempting to escape on a flight to Japan from the Shenyang Dongta Airport (situated in Manchuria – Northeast China). Together with Japanese Officials and a number of Imperial Japan’s Kwantung Army Generals – Puyi was captured by members of the Soviet Red Army Parachute Regiment (with NKVD Elements) – a Special Force despatched for this very important military operation! Many Soviet POWs had been captured by the Nazi Germans and sent to Manchuria – where they were illegally experimented upon by Unit 731 of the Imperial Japanese Army. Such Soviet prisoners were boiled alive, frozen to death, vivisected, castrated, and used in experiments testing various illnesses, gases, and munitions of all kinds. These Soviet men and women suffered alongside millions of Chinese people and other Asians – including a smaller number of Westerners. Despite the evil perpetuated by the machinations of Japanese fascism – the soldiers of the Soviet Red Army treated Puyi (and his Imperial Japanese allies) very well. Indeed, an NKVD Operative politely enquired of Puyi (in the Mancherian language), ‘Your Majesty – are you the Emperor of China?’

Randori - An Ancient Japanese Art!

Discussing the ‘Randori’ [乱取り] Concept Found within Okinawan & Japanese Martial Arts! (11.2.2024)

A skill is missing which must be acquired and formulated into an effective code. In other words, the ability to fight is a) lacking, b) must be attained, and c) its principles placed into a logical code for others to follow. Within Okinawan and Japanese martial arts this refers to training for combat – or what is referred to as ‘Sparring’ in the West. This is NOT sport fighting for egotistical reasons – but rather self-defence so that the physical body ‘survives’ any martial encounter. The body may be wounded or unhurt – either it is alive. This is different to gaining a piece of coloured cloth worn around the waist – or a shining tin cup, etc. Fighting for one’s life is very different to fighting for money.

Soviet Red Army Disarms Defeated Japanese in Manchuria!

DPRK: Japan is a Convicted “War Criminal” Nation Treading a Very Dangerous US-Backed Path! (3.2.2024)

Japan, which is banned from possessing combat capabilities as a war criminal nation bereft of its right to belligerency and participation in war, and the U.S. that unhesitatingly freed that vassal nation from the said shackles in a bid to carry out its hegemonic strategy, have neither qualification nor justification to find fault with the just and legitimate measures of our state for bolstering self-defensive capabilities.

Japan even discarded its spurious veil of “pacific nation” and is getting hell-bent on securing long-range missiles targeting the neighbouring countries, buoyed up by the U.S. zealous patronage and support. It has now emerged as the worst threat-posing country in the region.

Japan should be mindful that it will become a common target of the righteous regional community for its dogged efforts for realizing the old dream of “Greater East Asia Co-prosperity Sphere” while zealously following the U.S. gripped by anachronistic ambition for hegemony and expansionist fantasy.

Nauru Republic

Nauru: World’s Smallest “Republic” Abandons Taiwan and Embraces “One-China” [Again]! (15.1.2024)

Nauru’s President David Adeang will deliver a statement in this regard at the next parliament sitting, and a national address on local television and radio channels, the post said.

China appreciates and welcomes the decision of the government of the Republic of Nauru to recognize the one-China principle, break the so-called diplomatic ties with Taiwan, and to reestablish diplomatic ties with China, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson said on Monday.

China stands ready to work with Nauru to open new chapters of bilateral relations on the basis of the one-China principle, said the spokesperson.

Nauru is an island country in the central Pacific, with a land area of 21.1 square kilometers and a population of about 13,000.
