Wartime sex slaves call Japanese prime minister 'liar' for denying evidence
03/06 7:13:07 PM
MANILA (AP) - Nearly two dozen elderly Filipino women called Japan's prime minister "a liar" on Tuesday after he said
there was no evidence that women were forced into front-line brothels by Japanese troops during World War II.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has angered many in Asia where historians say about 200,000 women were forced into prostitution
by Japanese soldiers, claiming last week there was no proof women were coerced.
"We are the living victims and witnesses," said Virginia Villarma, 78. "How can we be prostitutes then when we were so
young and innocent ... We are telling Abe that what he said was wrong. He is a liar."
The women, some carrying placards saying, "I was raped. PM Abe Liar!" picketed the Japanese Embassy in Manila along with
about 20 relatives and supporters from Lila Pilipina, an organization of wartime sex slaves and women's rights activists.
Foreign Affairs Undersecretary Franklin Ebdalin urged Tokyo on Monday to adhere to the language and tone of both the 1993
apology made by then-Chief Cabinet Secretary Yohei Kono regarding wartime sexual slavery, and a 2002 letter of apology sent
by former Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi to Filipina "comfort women."
Villarma is one of 120 women still alive among 174 who were documented by Lila Pilipina as Filipino "comfort women," the term
used to refer to sex slaves provided to Japanese troops, who invaded the Philippines in 1941.

この新聞は反日傾向の強い新聞。時々いる馬鹿日本人の失敗の記事なら大抵実名で報道。
数年前の日本大使の「邦人の安否が気がかりで夜もろくに眠れん。」発言の時も痛烈に日本批判を繰り広げていた。
現在のところ、その割には案外とあまり強い感じの記事ではないみたいだ。
確か前社主のマックスソリビンは日本で客死。結構日本通らしかった。

確か、マニラに再上陸を米軍がしたときにマニラは破壊されたはずと思う。フィリピン人でも知ってる人は知ってる。
それに当時、フィリピンはそんなに石油を生産してたの？石油はインドネシアじゃないかと思う。
