Momiji Seniors Centre impressive

The living room of a sample furnished one-bedroom apartment at the Momiji Seniors Centre

By Sakura Torizuka
On December 5th and 6th, the
new Momiji Seniors Centre at
the comer of Kingston Rd. and
Markham Rd. in Scarborough
opened its doors to the public.

Despite the cold and snowy
weather, the turnout was phe­
nomenal with about 1,000 peo­
ple on each day browsing
through the beautiful complex,
viewing what the future might

have in store for them.
The visitors were greeted with

Redress Information
meeting at TBC
December 21, 1992
TORONTO.- The Tobu Canada Wakayama Kenjinkai and
the Toronto NAJC have recently
formed an alliance. The purpose
of this joint effort is to assist
and advise those Redress appli­
cants who have either been re­
jected or have not yet been in­
formed by Ottawa of whether
they are to receive individual
compensation under the terms
of the 1988 Redress Agreement.
This was the agreement nego­
tiated by the National Associa­
tion of Japanese Canadians
(NAJC) and signed on Septem­
ber 22, 1988.
This joining of forces came
about because of the number of
inquiries received by the Wa­
kayama Kenjinkai and the To­
ronto NAJC from Japanese Ca­
nadians who were in Japan
between 1941 and 1949 and
have either been rejected by Ot­
tawa or have not been informed
if they are eligible to receive

their individual Redress pay­
ments.
The NAJC feels that these in­
dividuals who were "trapped” in
Japan were also victims of the
racism directed by the Canadian
government against all Japanese
Canadians since they were ef­
fectively prevented from return­
ing to Canada until April 1,
1949.
On November 13th, at the An­
nual General Meeting of the
NAJC held in Winnipeg, Mani­
toba, the following motions
were passed:
1. That the NAJC urge the
Government to abide by the
terms of the Redress Agreement
signed on September 22, 1988,
and compensate all those Cana­
dians of Japanese ancestry who
were in Japan during the war
and could not return to Canada
after March 31, 1949, and that

"Comfort Women" not an issue of the past
By Sakura Torizuka

mutual trust and respect be­
tween the Japanese Canadian
community and the federal gov­
ernment, and regenerated a feel­
ing of self-worth and confi­
dence among the members of
the JC community.
In the case of Japan and the
former comfort women, the
Japanese government continued
to deny its involvement until the
evidence piled up so high that
they could no longer neglect it.
Although the government finally
admitted to its involvement after
much foot-dragging, it still has
not done anything concrete to
address these wrongs. Perhaps
the government is hoping that if
it continues to drag its feett,
these former comfort women

The recent exposure of the
atrocities perpetrated by the Im­
perial Japanese Army during
World War II against women in
Asian countries has made many
Japanese citizens ashamed of
the past deeds of their nation.
"Comfort women," as they
were conveniently named, were
in fact sex slaves forced into the
trade against their will. Many
Japanese, especially the young,
knew nothing of the acts
committed by their forefathers
and were shocked at the revela­
tion of these crimes. Some
may think that such acts were
merely a part of war - wrong,
yet unavoidable under the cir­
cumstances.
War or no war, the forced
prostitution organized by the
Imperial Army was unjust and
should be considered a crime
which needs to be redressed.
Just as some Canadians thought
that the present generation
should not have to bear the fi­
nancial burden for redress for
Japanese Canadians, there are
surely some Japanese who feel
that their tax money should not will die off and they won't have
be spent to pay for the mistakes to deal with it. Or at least, it

ago the act may have been com­ feeling the pressure to maintain
mitted. It also created a sort of a favourable international im­

age, rather than genuine regret at
the crimes committed. Are they
saying that such a crime would
be permitted against their own
people? Sexual slavery is a
crime against all women, irre­
spective of nationality or cir­
cumstance. The Japanese people
must face up to this fact both in
the past and present and change
their attitudes toward the issue.
Japan, and the Japanese peo­
ple, have a tendency to sweep
the dirt under the carpet, hoping
nobody will notice. One exam­
ple in present day Japan is the
lucrative sex industry which
most Japanese, including the au­
thorities, know exists and
thrives, but ignore.
Many young Asian women are

find a large number of Japanese
men who forced these girls into
such a life.
A recent article in The Japan
Times by Akiko Fukami dis­
cussed the leniency on the part
of authorities toward child sex­
abusers. According to the arti­
cle, two Japanese men were in­
dicted in the Philippines for sex­
ually abusing Filipino children
aged 7 to 13 and were repatriat­
ed to Japan. However, the news
received little coverage at home.
Nobody wants to hear about the
misdeeds of their own -- just
sweep it under the carpet along
with the rest of the garbage.
The Asian Women's Associa­
tion protested the indifferent at­
titude of the press toward the

in fact present-day comfort
women. Usually from poor
homes, they are lured by Japa­
nese and local brokers, with
promises of future riches, to
work as exotic dancers in Japan.
Many end up as prostitutes, un­
able to go back home without
money or a passport. This is
common knowledge among the
Japanese people, but still they

the downtown cores. If they

child abuser and even went to
the National Police Agency to
ask whether the repatriated men
were under investigation. The
police didn't have time to deal
with every single case and even
if they did they couldn't make a
case out of something that took
place out of their jurisdiction.
This attitude reflects the gen­
eral attitude toward sexual
crimes in Japan. The police
does little to control crimes such
as prostitution, rape and sexual
abuse.

This is present-day Japan. The
Japanese even try to ignore con­
temporary crimes being commit­
ted every day by their citizens in
their own country as well as in
many Asian countries. Though
these cases are different from
the case of the comfort women
in that the latter was organized
by an official arm of the govern­
ment, the crime, as far as the
victim is concerned, is the same.

Sexual crimes occur everyday
in all countries. In Canada, for
example, the newspapers are
full of child abuse, molestation
and rape. But the difference in
Japan is that such stories rarely
make headlines. Whiting out pu­
bic hairs in Madonna's books
makes the daily news but the
fact that child pornography can
legally go on bookshelves in
stores specializing in porno
books - because there is no pu­
bic hair - is swept away. The re­
cent tide of stories about such
crimes in Canadian newspapers,
as elsewhere, is due not to the
increase in these crimes but to
the increased awareness of the
general public and the creation
of support groups allowing the
victims to come forward.
Perhaps the comfort women
issue in Japan will serve as a
catalyst for greater awareness of
sexual crimes in contemporary
Japan. The Japanese govern­
ment has the responsibility of
redressing these courageous
women not only as compensa­
tion to them for the acts of its
predecessor, but for the sake of
Japan and the Japanese people,
present and future.

Tokyo Medical College group
reported last Friday at a meeting
of the Japanese Society of Ma­
ternal Hygiene.
The report was based on a
survey conducted by a group of
doctors at the college's Kasumi­
gaura Hospital in Ibaraki Pre­
fecture on 50 foreign women
admitted to the hospital during a
five-year period from January
1987 through April, 1992.
Of the 50 women, 30 were
hospitalized because of the im­
minent danger of miscarriage,
according to the report.
For many of them, their con­
dition worsened because they
were forced to continue work­
ing or because they would not

undergo medical examination
for fear of being reported to im­
migration authorities, it said.
A 30-year-old Thai woman
who was hospitalized in March
this year was diagnosed as hav­
ing womb cancer when she was
first examined at the hospital.
However, she refused to be
hospitalized on account of the
costs but was admitted one
month later after she began to
bleed heavily, according to the
hospital.
Foreigners working in Japan
without proper visas are not eli­
gible for national health insu­
rance. They therefore acquire
massive medical bills when they
undergo treatment, which many
of them are unable to pay.
Groups of citizens and acti­
vists helping foreign workers in
Japan are demanding that wel-

fare and health insurance sys­
tems be revised so that even for­
eigners working without proper
visas would be eligible for wel­
fare and medical subsidies, it
said.

Kasey's Corner

On reading Ishiguro: A sansei perception of reality
If I weren't familiar with Ka­
zuo Ishiguro's other two nov­
els, I probably wouldn't have
read A Pale View of Hills. But
having read the book, I prompt­
ly decided that it was the best
and most enjoyable book I've
read this year -- apart from the
same author's Remains of the
Day which won the booker
Prize for 1989. Although large­
ly restricted to novelists in for­
mer British Empire countries,
Booker is probably the most
prestigious international prize
for novels.
A Pale View of Hills is not a
conventional novel with a be­
ginning, a middle and an end. It
reads almost like an improvisa­
tion, with time shifts, and scene
shifts between Nagasaki and
London. But it works - certain-

England as a setting for his first
novel, but the need to expose
his characters to very rapid so­
cial change led him to change
the locale to Nagasaki, remem­
bered from his childhood. The
result is A Pale View of the
Hills narrated by its female pro­
tagonist, Etsuko. The range of
subjects coming under her atten­
tion include decay of morality in
Japan to the young people in
England with their liberated
views on marriage and child­
bearing.
Ishiguro says his second nov­
el, An Artist from the Floating
World, develops further the
character introduced in his first
book - Ogata-san. He becomes
the artist who faces difficulties
in adapting to post-war Japan in
which his wartime attitude has

we become so obsessed with
correcting the mistaken percep­

ly well enough to win an award
for this maiden effort at a novel.
What inspired Ishiguro to
write this book? In a conversa­
tion with Japanese novelist
Kenzaburo Ohe, Ishiguro ex­
plains that he had always been
interested in the importance of
being committed to some idea or
vision during one's life, and to
feel a responsibility to it.
We might call it by a more
common name, a purpose in
life. This, Ishiguro feels, is
lacking in today's society. We
are too quickly taken up with
our immediate needs, which are
ultimately unimportant.
The dilemma of the young to
determine their purpose in life
has increased in today's world
of rapid transition.
At first, Ishiguro planned to
use the landscape of southern

become discredited.
The artist has either deceived
himself, or has been deceived
by those around him, and is
made to wonder if his life was a
failure or a waste.
This situation reminds me of
the issei in Canada and un­
doubtedly of nikkei elsewhere. I
would also include nisei who
were under issei influence.
During the redress struggle,
the honest position taken by
these people was "We don't de­
serve compensation." They did
not hide the strong attachment
they had to past values. I would
not condemn them -1 think the
position they took was justified.
I think of the Christian minister

ceiver who informed scattered
issei groups of the latest war
news.

was worried by the thought that
near the end of his life, he might
face the question of whether or
not his life had been wasted, or
had been a failure.
Ishiguro's life to date does not
show such tendencies, says
Ohe. The only thing that could
even remotely be considered a
failure was his abandonment of
his first goal of becoming a mu­
sician (probably a rock musi­
cian). Ishiguro concedes that he
had been fortunate - his first
novel won a literary prize, for
example.
Ishiguro tells Ohe: "When
people look back at their past
life, they might think it wasn't
bad, or, at other times, feel a
strong sense of sin. And in the
process of such thoughts, they
may finally come face-to-face
with the terrible reality - that

tion, has requested that the Min­
ister consider an extension of
time for this purpose.
A total of 234 applications for
funding have been received and
most have now been processed.
We are pleased that we have
been able to satisfy most appli­
cants, with only a handful of
formal complaints being re­
ceived.
$4,239,341 in interest has
been earned on the initial $12
million, to March 31,1992. We
wish to commend our treasurer,
Fred Yada , for participating in
the management’of our invest­

ment.
At this time I would like to
thank my fellow directors for
their very strong support, and
their commitment of personal
time towards the work of the
Foundation. On many occasions
they willingly undertook tasks
and activities beyond their re­
sponsibilities as directors,
which were important to the
overall success of the Program.
I would also like to add a spe­
cial thanks to Tony Tamayose
for his loyalty and support of
the Board's work, and for keep­
ing our administrative demands
under control.
