Japanese Confession Involved In Forced Bumiputra Women To Become A Hero In The Era Of Colonialism In Today's Memory, July 6, 1992

JAKARTA Memories of today, 31 years ago, July 6, 1992, the Head of the Secretariat of the Japanese Cabinet, Koichi Kato shocked the whole world. He said the Japanese government was directly involved in making Bumiputra women prostitutes during the colonial period in the archipelago (1942-1945).

Previously, Japanese colonial stains had been updated with peace agreements and war grounds. The Nusantara side was invited to make peace with Japan. Even though Japan did not want to admit the sins of its past.

The Japanese occupation carried very deep wounds for the whole of the archipelago. They are no different far from the previous colonialists, the Netherlands. The presence of Japan, which brought a narrative of fascist government, made the natives miserable.

The arrogance of military force was highlighted. As a result, the bumiputras were treated like slaves. They were blackmailed like dairy cows. Adult men were forced to become forced laborers (romusha). While the women were made sex slaves (jugun iannfu).

The hatred then ingrained. Especially when Indonesia was independent. Hate for Japan emerged from all elements of society. The invaders remained colonial. The narrative began to weaken when Japan and Indonesia agreed to forget the past.

The two countries want to make peace and not continue to be hostile and hate each other. The peace agreement initiative is planned by the two countries. The Old Order government is even more interested. Mainly, because the Old Order smelled a big advantage from the peace agreement.

Two agreements were prepared. Peace agreements and war deals. The war settlement agreement made Japan compensate for the impact of the Pacific War. Two agreements were signed in Jakarta in 1958.

This agreement is divided into two, the first is the peace agreement and the second is the peace agreement. For the peace agreement, it regulates matters related to the desire to end the status of war and create a peaceful situation between the two countries.

"This agreement contains seven articles, and the war pampasan that must be paid by Japan is regulated and contained in article 4 in the agreement," said Moh. Gandhi Amanullah in the book Matahari Equatorial: Indonesia-Japan Relations in the Spectative of Literature and Social Culture (2020).

It may be that the peace agreement and war seasoning were greeted with a commotion between the two countries. However, not a few Indonesians are annoyed with the agreement. The warpox agreement is considered nothing more than a mere covert money.

Money kept his mouth shut so that Indonesia would not reveal Japan's crimes during colonialism. The crime of jugun Ianfu, for example. The crime never wanted to be disclosed by Japan. In fact, the Japanese government is strongly suspected of being involved and immediately gave orders to perpetuate jugun Ianfu.

However, the testimony of the Head of the Japanese Cabinet Secretariat, Koichi Kato, only kicked off the world on July 6, 1992. Kato finally revealed that the Japanese government was involved in the atrocities of forcing bumiputra women to become prostitutes. The Japanese government is also considered to be in debt of forgiveness for atrocities.

The head of the Japanese Cabinet Secretariat, Koichi Kato, announced an important announcement on July 6, 1992. He mentioned the Japanese Government's official involvement in recruiting and employing Asian women as prostitutes in World War II.

He said an official investigation had found the fact that women from the Korean Peninsula, China, Taiwan, and Indonesia were used as prostitutes in comfort stations. There are documents found that illustrate several things concerning the formation of prostitution houses and the provision of identity cards to comfort women. And documents related to Indonesia were found as many as four pieces, "explained Maulwi Saelan in the book From Revolution 45 to Coup 66(2008).
