What kind of life do victims in other countries live?
During the WWII, when Japan evoked the wars everywhere in the Asia-Pacific coasts, many women were abused for sexual slavery and violence by Japanese military. I took my journey in Korea, China, the Philippines, Indonesia and East-Timor and met 140 survivors who were still present.Survivors had their former-Japanese names tattooed on their arms. Although each memory was disconnected from one to another, their testimonies gave me clear pictures. Their moans are piled up over and over from the cold eyes from people around, religious discrimination, and Japan and other countries which eyes off from those survivors. The testimonies of the survivors of Japanese military sexual slavery in Asian countries are not merely part of a past 70 years ago, but messages that must be delivered towards our future.
