ings have captured numerous
awards in Vancouver show­
ings.
Since arriving in Canada
from his native Japan at age
14, he has succeeded due
to sheer determination. He
worked at Ocean Falls for five
years after his arrival, and as
an auto mechanic apprentice
for 10 years. He then acquired
his own automotive business.
When the Japanese were
interned during the Second
World War two years later,
he lost his business. After
being crowded into former
horse stables at Hastings
Park, and made part of a road
gang at Sicamous, he was
posted to New Denver where
he worked-as an auto mecha­
nic for 50 cents a day.
His wife, Ina, detained in
Vancouver due to the birth of
their third child, finally joined
him in theit 14x25 foot cabin
which they called home for
eight years.
Back in Vancouver, they
finally located an inexpensive
house on Victoria Drive, and
Iwasaki went to work in a
garage for 18 months before
again acquiring his own auto­
motive centre. He operated
his shop for 20 years, prior to
retiring to Mayne Island.
During all this time, Iwa­
saki was too busy to cultivate
a hobby, even though he felt
he should. When he and Ina
arrived on Mayne, they clear­
ed their land, built their home
and developed a prolific garden.

Ina busied herself with com­
munity interests and a prog­
ram at St. Mary Magdalene
Church.
But upon her sudden pass­
ing, Ben found time- on his
hands. It was then he picked
up his paint brush. And now
he is loathe to put it down.
Dividing his time between
a senior citizen's housing
complex in East Hastings
and his waterfront home on
Mayne, Ben finds his days are
filled with interest.
While in Vancouver, he pur­
sues his walking, swimming
and painting and while on
Mayne he tends his beautiful
garden, cuts and hauls fire­
wood from the beach in front,
takes care of the housekeep­
ing and, of course, paints.
Locally, his work is avail­
able at Kay Carpenter's Gal­
lery, the Centre Store and
Robert's Chocolates.

Williams Lake Sansei bones-up
on history before trip to Japan
By DANIELLE HARDER
WILLIAMS LAKE, Ont. The story began with a tiny
ad in the Cariboo College
“210 Express”. From there
a series of essays, applica­
tions and interviews have led
to the chance of a lifetime
for lakecity student Tawnya
Kozuki.
Tawnya left Williams Lake
recently to spend 11 months
attending Nagasaki Wesleyan
Junior College in Japan.
“I found an ad in the col­
lege newspaper. I have al­
ways been curious to know
more about the past and Ja­
panese cultures and ways so
I applied,” she said.
As part of an student ex­
change program between Ca­
riboo College and Nagasaki
Wesleyan Junior College,
Cariboo College selects two
students annually to study in
Japan. The program is intend­
ed mainly for students of
Japanese descent such as
Tawnya but other students
may apply also.
Tawnya will be studying
Japanese language, arts and
culture combined with field
trips and homestay programs
involving old and modern
Japanese society.
“This will be the hardest
thing I've ever done. It will
be extremely hard over there
but I love having achallenge,”
she said.
Because she does not
speak Japanese Tawnya was
preparing by studying Japa­
nese video tapes as well as
hiragana and katakana, the
Japanese form of writing.
Besides studying at the
college Tawnya will be teach­
ing English four hours a day
to provide herself with spend­
ing money, since Japan is
such a costly country to live
in.

More promotion necessary
to attract greater flow
of Japanese investment
TORONTO. — More heavy
promotion by the Canadian
governments and industry is
necessary to attract Japa­
nese investment, a report
released recently said.
Although the dollar value
of Japanese investments in
Canada is increasing, the
share of Japan' s total foreign
investment has been static
for 20 years, says the report,
written by Alan Rugman, a
professor of international
business at the University of
Toronto for the Ottawa-based
Canadian-Japan Trade Coun­
cil.
A major problem is that
most of the Japanese invest­
ments is in resource extrac­
tion industries or in facilities
for distributing goods made
in Japan, which create rela­
tively few Canadian jobs and
economic spinoffs, Rugman's
report notes.
.

Unless they are blocked by
the growing tide of American
nationalism a protectionism,
Japanese businesses are like­
ly to continue directing most
of their investment in man­
ufacturing and other highvalue-added enterprises to
the U.S., the 63-page report
states.
“Many difficulties continue
to impede the expansion of
Japanese foreign direct in­
vestment in Canada. The most
significant of these is the
lack of awareness of, or interst in, Canada on the part of
Japanese strategic planners,”
Rugman says.
The Japanese consider Ca­
nada a good place to invest
. . . but Canada is unlikely to
receive a larger share of the
flow of Japanese direct for­
eign investment unless Cana­
da promotes itself to a much
larger degree in Japan itself.”

The main library center in New

and all will be easily retrievable.
The first phase of the library con­

TOKYO — Iran has offered
to increase its exports of
crude oil to Japan to cover
loss of supplies from Iraq and
Kuwait, a government official
said recently. Seiji Hirota, the
director for international pet­
roleum affairs at the interna­
tional trade ministry, said Iran
had proposed increasing its
sales from 280,000 barrels a
day to as much as 700,000
barrels.

Mercedes-Benz sales
are up in Japan
TOKYO — Spurred by strong sales
in Japan, Mercedes-Benz has decided
to market.its 1991 car model lineup in
August, ahead of schedule. The com­
pany said the new lineup has been
enhanced with the introduction of
the 190E2.3, which offers a comfort­
able driving experience with L-4 2.3liter engine mounted on a 190 class
chassis.
The company said right hand drive
version of the new 500SL Roadster
will also be included in the new line­
up. It said 13 of 24 models will be
available in right hand drive versions.
In the first half of this year 20,614
MB units have been sold, 44.4 per­
cent over a year ago. The company' s
sales in 1989 totaled 31,511 units, up
39.3 percent over previous year.

Japan declares war
— on smelly feet!
TOKYO. — The mystery of
why some people have smelly
feet and others do not has
been solved.
Contrary to the widely held
belief that the offensive
stench is caused by poor
hygiene or excessive sweati­
ness, Japanese scientists
have discovered that those
with strong foot odor have
large amounts of short-chain
fatty acids, similar in molecu­
lar makeup to vinegar.
The odor becomes evident
when the bacteria on the skin
begins to feed on its nutri­
ents. Scientists from the Shiseido Research Centre in Yo­
kohama concluded the sweat
smells more when there are
more than usual fatty acids
present.
A Japanese cosmetic com­
pany says it aims to develop a
deodorant which acts directly
on the chemical compounds
responsible for offensive
body odors.

ANGLICAN CHURCH

Emperor's enthronement stirs debate
abolished. Most opinion surveys
show Japanese to be benignly in­
different, leaving the debate to ex­
tremists.
The birth of Akihito in 1933 was a
cause for joy, because after four
daughters, Empress Nagako had
begun to despair of producing a
male heir.
Following tradition, Akihito was
separated from his parents at the age
of three and brought up by attend­
ants who so zealously cared for him
that the later told friends he was
scarcely permitted to walk up the
stairs by himself. By all accounts,
Akihito's childhood was painfully
lonely.
At the hight of the war, in 1944,
when American B-29s were bombing
Tokyo, Akihito moved to a coastal
area south of the city, then to the
mountains.
The next year he returned, shaken,
to find his school and house de­
stroyed, surrounded by devastated
shell of a city and his school mates
wondering about their future in the
occupation.
Gen. Douglas MacArthur, rejected
the advice of many, decided not to
remove or punish Hirohito, who they
felt had been powerless to stop the
war. MacArthur reasoned that main­
taining the emperor would promote
unity and friendship.
The Americans decreed that it
would be dangerous for the 12-yearold Akihito to be further isolated,
as tradition required. He was thus
educated through high school and
college among friends from the old
privileged classes.
Approaching adulthood, Akihito
vowed to raise his own children
without the restrictions he had ex­
perienced.
The main constraints on Akihito,
however, still come from the all-

TOKYO. — On the 22nd day of
November this year, if all goes ac­
cording to plan, an enigmatic and
lonely 56-year-old man who has lived
almost all his life in the shadow of
his father will leave his modest
home for the grounds of the Imperial
Palace in dowtown Tokyo.
At 6:30 p.m. Akihito will bathe,
put on white ceremonial robes and
enter a shrine in a wooded glade.
He will eat boiled rice and millet
and then commune alone with the
spirit of his mythological ancestor,
the sun goddess Amaterasu Omikami. Three hours before dawn he
will emerge spiritually transformed
as the 125th emperor of Japan.

Ishihara writes sequel
to infamous “No” book
TOKYO. — Shintaro Ishihara, a na­
tionalist politician whose book, “The
Japan That Can Say No” stirred up
controversy in the United States for
his outspoken opinions, has already
released a sequel that has become a
best seller in Japan.
In the first five days of its release,
the sequel, entitled “Still The Japan
That Can Say No,” has sold 250,000
copies.
In the first book Ishihara asserted
that economic and technology
strength had turned Japan into the
No. 1 power in the world, so strong,
Ishihara wrote, that Japan can say
no to the United States over military
and trade disputes and say yes to
the Soviet Union.
In the sequel, Ishihara calls for
Japan to rid “itself of Postwar Con­
sciousness,” while saying no to the
Japan-U.S. Security Treaty.
The biggest difference in this book
is that Akio Morita, Sony Corp, chair­
man, did not take part in this writting.
The original book was meant solely
for Japanese circulation, but Morita
was horrified when someone boot­
legged a translation.
Because of his criticism of U.S.
business practices, Morita insisted
that his chapters in the first book
be deleted from the authorised ver­
sion.
Ishihara wrote in his second book
that he wrote the sequel to help the
U.S. and Japan build better relations
in the future. He has written this
book with Kazuhisa Ogawa, a military
affairs critic, who writes a critical
chapter about the Japan-U.S. ‘Secu­
rity Treaty, and Shoichi Watanabe,

a rightist professor of English at
Sophia University.
While the book is doing fantastic
business, Yasutoshi Ikuta, a writer
himself, told Mary Ganz of the San
Francisco Examiner, that such sales
should not be interpreted as approval
by the Japanese people.
“Ishihara is a modern rightwinger
or, I should say, a modern national­
ist,” Ikuta told Ganz. “Japan has
had nationalistic ideas historically
that grew partly out of its sense of
itself as a small island nation closed
to outsiders. Now, Japan has finan­
cial power, which has focused the
idea of nationalism, and that pheno­
menon matches well with Ishihara's
ideas.”
But, Ikuta observed that many peo­
ple who were buying the book are
just trying to find out how out­
rageous Ishihara can get. Also, some
people are concerned about Japan's
relationship with the United States,
and Ikuta noted that many other
books about this subject sell very
well.
Ikuta himself has written a book on
the subject, “Stop the Japanese:
America's Voice Through Letters to
the Editor”. Ikuta translated many
letters to newspapers in the United
States and voiced an opinion on this
subject.
Despite the amount of criticism,
Ikuta said that Japan-bashing is not
nearly as bad as the Japanese press
would make out.
However, Ganz noted that Ikuta's
book is far behind Ishihara's in
sales. Ikuta's book has registered
a modest 20,000 copies so far.

powerful Imperial Household Agency,
whose 1,100 employees are famous
for a protectiveness toward the im­
perial family that cannot be breached
by politicians or other outsiders.
Behind the scenes, associates say
that unlike his father, Akihito bridles
at being dictated to. They say he
takes an active interest in what he is
told to say on diplomatic occasions,
demanding explanations or changes
to reflect his feelings. “He doesn't
want to give the impression he's a
puppet,” an official says.
One factor in Akihito's favor is
The increasing pride the Japanese
take in their traditions. “When I was
growing up, intellectuals and stu­
dents were all criticizing Japanese
culture, including the emperor sys­
tem,” says Shin-ichi Nakazawa, a
39-year-old author of several books
on Japanese society. "Today every­
one is fascinated by royalty.”
Or, as a recent youth magazine
put it, the imperial family “saves us
from being only a nation of shop­
keepers.
Japanese rightists want to restore
imperial sovereignty over the gov­
ernment and armed forces. They are
said to be less than happy with his
stated support for the Japanese Con­
stitution,, calling Akihito a “closet
pacifist” and leftist tainted by Chris­
tian influence.
If anythng, Akihito's well-known
distrust of ultranationalists is seen
as a guarantee against their ever try­
ing to overthrow the government in
his name.
Still, there is much public debate
over the Liberal Democratic Party
decision to spend $15 million in
public funds for the religious part
part of Akihito's enthronement.
The dispute revolves around the
quasi-religious ceremony on Nov.
22, when the emperor engages in
purification rites and spends the
night communing with the gods.
Critics say the ceremony should
be dispensed with because its tra­
ditional function was to create a
living god. And many people see the
entire ceremony — not to mention
the public financing of it — as an
affront to the constitution.
A group of lawyers has announced
a suit to block the ceremony, and lef­
tists and Christian organizations are
also lobbying against it.
Few people in Japan think there
is even a slight chance df Japan
returning to militarism, even with
the nationalist leanings of its poli­
tical leadership.
But some worry that with its
rising economic power, Japan could
adopt a more nationalistic, perhaps
confrontational approach on trade
and other issues.
Given the dark legacy of war, the
Japanese emperor .is always likely
to be shadowed by history in ways
that the other monarchs of the world
are not, but he also draws on Ja­
pan's unusual cultural affinities.
The long sense of their own uni­
queness — a quality of the Japanese
many outsiders find both seductive
and dangerous — seems to rest on
the tremendous sense of gratitude
the Japanese feel toward their par­
ents and ancestors.
I know many people who in one
breath say that the emperor is irrele­
vant to their lives and that Akihito
is not especially impressive, but in
the next say that he reminds them of
their amazingly strong bond to his­
tory and their distinctive character.
Perhaps the mystery was summed
up best when I was watching the
emperor create a undeniable emo­
tional effect on crowds in Nagasaki.
“From his face, you can see that
the emperor loves peace,” says
Hideoki Ogawa, a 44-year-old elec­
trician. “He represents something
precious but fragile, that fact that
our blood has continued for 2,000
years in this one man, that we are
Japanese and this is our homeland.
If we deny him, we deny ourselves.”

Help Japanese men find
brides without “Omiai”

Small cut hand
By BILL MARUTANI
I've long wondered why
the Japanese word for (bank)
“check” was written as a
three-kanji term pronnounced
“kogitte” which has a literal
translation of “small, cut,
hand.” While we've all heard
'the American slang phrase
“cut me a check,” kogitte's
origins cannot be affiliated
with such beginnings. If any­
thing, it just might be the
other way around. Adding to
this puzzle is that if one
removes the “ko” (small), the
resulting leftover is “kitte”
meaning “postage stamp.”

Of the three
kanji's in the
compound,
the most baf­
fling one for
me was the
kanji for “cut”
read as kiru
with more nuances of mean­
ing than I had realized. You'll
recall that “kiru” is a fourstroke character: on the left
side it looks like a Chinese
“seven” (shichi) except the
stroke at the bottom is a
sharp upward one — rather
than the smooth one that is
characteristic of shichi. To
the right is the character
katana, “sword.” Now that we
have that, what do we do
next?

Keep .going.
The ohn-yomi for kiru are
“setsu” and “sai.” Perhaps
one of the more familiar com­
pounds is “seppuku,” literal­
ly “cut, stomach” or “cut, ab­
domen.” This ritual is known
to many as hara-kiri, which
figures, inasmuch such is a
literal rendition of the kanji
characters. With the charac­
ters “cut, hand” we have the
word for “postage stamp.”
But the jiten revealed yet
another meaning' pronounc­
ed as kirete, the kanji
characters mean “man of
ability.” In our American
slang, one refers to a person
who “cuts a wide swath” or
“cuts quite a figure.”
No relationship: just an
idle, passing observation.
Continuing the search I
found myself in even deeper
waters, more confused than
when I initially started.
There's the kanji compound
taisetsu (“great” or “big cut”)
which means “important” or
“precious.” How often have
the Nisei heard that term
from their parents: “Tai-setsu
ni suru bekarazu.” I came
across a combination that
threw an additonal puzzle. In­
itially, there was kiri-uri (“cut,
sell”) which means “to sell by
the piece,” which figures. But
add to that combination the
kanji term for “principle”
with the resulting kiri-urishugi and surprise — it
comes out meaning “prosti­
tution.”
At this point, I began to
suspect that I wasn't going
to find that long-sougnt

answer to my initial query.
.
I'm holding kogitte —
“small, cut hand.” Some
knowledgeable reader out
• there will have to give me a te
' (hand). Anyone?

TOKYO
- The 35year-old
lumber mill worker was drawing a
blank. Again he was faced with that
terrible silence when he's trying to
talk to a woman and the conversation
goes dead. It was one of the reasons
he had enrolled in the class.
He smiled nervously at the woman
sitting across from him. In this
role-playing exercise, he had been
instructed to ask her at least three
questions on the topic of home­
towns. He had already asked where
she was from and where her parents
were from.
“Come on,” the instructor chided.
“You aren't feeling ill at ease just sit­
ting in front of a woman, are you?”
He racked his brains for something
to say. After a long pause he finally
asked, “And where are your grand­
parents from?”
The classroom erupted in laughter.
“An outsider might laugh away
or even criticize what we are doing,
but the guys who came here have got
to practice the ABCs of dialogue,”
said Satoshi Noguchi, co-founder of
Marriage Co., a year-old company
that offers a variety of classes with
one goal in mind — helping Japa­
nese men land brides.
The company's full course - billed
as “18 Steps to Make You a Man
of Great Charm”-consists of 90minute classes held once a week for
18 weeks at a cost of 164,000 yen
($1,000). Shorter courses are also
offered.
There is a heavy emphasis on role
playing, with students taught such
things as how to be effective listen­
ers, how to use humor and how to
praise women without being con­
descending. They are also given
fashion tips, a lecture on how con­
temporary women view married life
and advice on topics of conversation
that do and don't appeal to women.
More of the men who sing up for
the classes have already tried to
find brides through the traditional
Japanese way of arranged marriages,
which a government survey found
accounted for about 23 precent of
all Japanese marriages between
1985 and I987. Relatives, community
elders or matchmaking companies
set up meetings between marriageminded men and women. If all goes
well on the first meetings, called an
“omiai”, a second date is arranged
and the new couple takes it from
there.
Noguchi said most of his students
have failed repeatedly to get second
dates a/ter the initial “omiai”. In
short, the are desperate.

me to keep the ball rolling with a
woman,” said Hiroshi Doi, 34-, a
systems engineer who has struck out
with about 50 women he met through
matchmaking services.
“When I find the woman across
the table losing interest in what
I'm talking about, I become upset
and things go from bad to worse,”
he said. “I'm still not sure what
was wrong with me and^ that's one
reason I decided to come here.”
Noguchi said most of the men who
sign up for his classes are serious,
hard working and good natured, but
have few interests outside their jobs.
They would have made ideal marriage
material a decade ago, but not any
more. Many Japanese men do not
actively try to meet women, said
Yoko Itamoto, who heads a non­
profit marriage consultation firm
in Tokyo.
“Single Japanese men have some­
how taken it for granted that as long
as they work hard, somebody will
find them wives at a certain age,”
Itamoto said. “As a result, at a time
when women are looking for partners
with whom they can share life, men
are still putting emphasis on their
jobs. Today's men should be able to
express themselves naturally.”
Of the 36 men who completed the
18-week course last year, six have
since tied the knot, Noguchi said.
During one class on a recent Sunday
in May, it was apparent that several
i
of the students had indeed learned
something from the earlier lessons.
Doi, the systems engineer, showed
up sporting a smart, salmon-colored
suit with a pink necktie — a combi­
nation he said had been suggested in
a previous class on fashion sense.
“Before coming here, I never
bothered with what color might
become me the best,” he said. “I
used to put on .a navy suit and a
deep-red tie almost as a rule.”
“I was asked to work this week­
end, but .instead I had a date Satur­
day with a woman I met at an ‘omiai’
and today I came here,” said another
in the class. “A year ago, I would
not have been aggressive enough
to do so.”

Doctors in Japan
on ambulance calls
TOKYO. — The Japanese govern­
ment plans to begin staffing am­
bulances with doctors starting next
year on a trial basis.

Under Japanese laws, ambulance
personnel, who are members of local
fire departments can only stop a vic­
tim's bleeding and apply artificial ;
respiration. Unlike paramedics in ‘
the North America, they cannot give
such emergency procedures as in- !
travenous drip injections, tracheo­
tomies or heart shock treatment.

In 1988 about 2.5 million Japanese
patients were transported to hos­
pitals by ambulances. Of those pa­
tients, 38,600 were dead before
being examined by hospital doctors. '
The health ministry said many of .
those victims could have been saved 1
with immediate emergency care. J
Under the ministry's plan, doctors
will be stationed at fire stations,
or ambulances will be stationed at
hispitals.
