The lesson Japan must draw from the postwar-scale disaster caused by the Wuhan virus is not a peripheral issue such as September school admission. It is the danger of dependence on China, the return of manufacturing to Japan, and the rebuilding of medical, technological, and national security foundations.

April 30, 2020
The hundred-year national strategy that Japan must draw up from this greatest postwar disaster caused by the Wuhan virus is not, frankly speaking, some utterly trivial issue such as September school admission.
The stance of opposition-party politicians and that of television media such as the Asahi Shimbun and NHK are strangely identical.
Their stance is to prevent the Japanese government, for China’s sake, from drawing up a hundred-year national strategy.
For that purpose, they keep clamoring for compensation.
They say that the government is inadequate and that its measures are slow, stirring up the foolish masses and making them attack the administration.
Suddenly, the opinion appeared that the school admission season should be moved to September.
At first glance, it appears to be a reasonable opinion, and therefore there were many supporters even among the National Governors’ Association.
But there is something deeply suspicious about the fact that it was supposedly started by a housewife in Suginami Ward.
Kanagawa Shimbun, a subsidiary of the Asahi Shimbun, once had a housewife in Kanagawa start a laughable movement calling for the Nobel Peace Prize to be given to Article 9 of the Constitution.
This time as well, the Asahi Shimbun’s digital edition proudly wrote, “Why not September?” in a tone that recalls Renho or Tsujimoto, with a nauseating ulterior motive hostile to the nation.
This is a scheme of which every Japanese citizen must become aware.
This pattern is exactly the same as the movement begun at the time of the Great East Japan Earthquake by Masayoshi Son, Mizuho Fukushima, and others, calling for the immediate total shutdown of nuclear power plants and a shift to solar power generation.
At that time, too, as in this case, many local government heads agreed with them.
Because the image of the Governor of Miyagi Prefecture was shown prominently in this report, I want all the more to say this to the governors of the National Governors’ Association.
The hundred-year national strategy that Japan must draw up from this greatest postwar disaster caused by the Wuhan virus is not, frankly speaking, some utterly trivial issue such as September school admission.
What is strange, and extraordinarily foolish, about this discussion is that it diverts attention from the essence of the problem.
What this virus disaster has informed the world is that there was a grave problem in the form of so-called globalization that had existed until now.
China is a one-party communist dictatorship.
This is the truth discerned by Tadao Umesao, one of the great figures who achieved one of the greatest scholarly accomplishments in postwar Japan.
To concentrate factories for medical supplies and companies possessing cutting-edge technologies in China, a country of bottomless evil and plausible lies, is something that gravely concerns national security.
It is an act that exposes the lives of the people to danger.
In reality, it is an act of entrusting the fate of one’s own nation to China, that is, to the CCP, an outrageous country.
The fate of the nation and its people had been placed in the hands of the CCP.
The countries of the world’s G6 have realized that this was the truth of globalization up to now.
The housewife in Suginami who started saying such things as September school admission is undoubtedly a reader of the Asahi Shimbun or a person connected with the Communist Party.
In other words, there should be no doubt that she is a person under China’s influence, a sympathizer of China.
I want the National Governors’ Association, and especially the Governor of Miyagi Prefecture, my hometown, and Governor Yoshimura of Osaka, to understand that what this greatest postwar disaster has brought is not something that should lead them to ride on the argument of frivolous globalists about September school admission.
This great disaster has taught us that we must not allow the manufacturing factories of the excellent corporate groups that form the foundation of the nation to remain in China, a one-party communist dictatorship.
They must be returned to various parts of Japan.
The government must be made to allocate a budget for that purpose.
When that alone is not enough, they must be moved to countries other than the country of the CCP.
Or to countries other than those similar to the CCP, that is, to countries other than China and South Korea.
The factories of Japan’s great corporations, of which the world can be proud, must be relocated.
Tourism, too, must fundamentally change its form.
Even if Japan continues as a tourism-oriented nation, this must be so.
But I am convinced of this.
Merely by moving the factories of Japan’s great corporations, which Japan boasts to the world, to various parts of Japan, there will no longer be any need to recklessly insist on becoming a tourism-oriented nation.
That is because enormous and stable employment will be created in each region.
In the field of tourism as well, a heavenly voice has sounded, telling us to change the form that depended on China and South Korea, countries dangerous in many senses.
The way Hokkaido and other regions began to depend easily on investment from China.
The way Japan allowed China and South Korea to acquire Japanese real estate without restriction.
Against all of these, a heavenly voice has sounded.
Japan, for what purpose are you having so much money taken from you by China, and continuing to expose yourself to threats represented by the Senkaku Islands?
We must understand that this is the heavenly voice, and this is Japan’s hundred-year national strategy.
Governors of the National Governors’ Association.
At the time of the Great East Japan Earthquake, you must not forget that many rushed to join the scheme of Masayoshi Son and Mizuho Fukushima, forgetting the nation’s hundred-year strategy, and carried out the immediate total shutdown of nuclear power plants.
That brought about the great stagnation of Japan’s nuclear industry and technology, and the rise in electricity charges, which are the foundation of industry.
It was the nightmare-like foolish policy of Naoto Kan.
It was a foolish policy that even Ban Ki-moon, the Korean Secretary-General of the United Nations at the time, said was a mistake.
While Japan was left behind, China rapidly pushed forward the construction of new nuclear power plants and emerged as one of the world’s great nuclear power nations.
That is an undeniable fact.
South Korea likewise pushed forward the construction of new nuclear power plants.
As a result, the difference in electricity charges between Japan and South Korea expanded even further.
Masayoshi Son, who was the ringleader, maliciously moved his data centers, which consume enormous amounts of electricity, to South Korea.
Governors of the National Governors’ Association.
Never again take part in a scheme that causes the nation to mistake its hundred-year strategy.
The hundred-year strategy that the Japanese state must draw up from the greatest postwar Wuhan virus disaster now attacking the whole world should not be, frankly speaking, some utterly trivial issue such as September school admission.
There is no way that people whose brains cannot understand such an elementary-school-level matter are serving as governors.
We must also realize that the fundamental reason why people of excellent intellect become so uniformly foolish lies in the scheme to prevent the Wuhan virus from being called the Wuhan virus.
In 2011 as well, local government heads fell all too easily into the trap of pseudo-moralism.
This time is even more grotesque.
All the leaders of the G6 declared that this is a war, and stated that they are wartime presidents and prime ministers.
This Wuhan virus is, so to speak, a war launched by the CCP.
The causative person is Shi Zhengli, a Communist Party element, and the source is the CCP.
That is why they stubbornly conceal information.
This too is an elementary-school-level matter.
Despite the fact that this is a war, the Asahi Shimbun and television media such as NHK are loudly reporting the nonsense that Japanese education has been damaged in only two months, that Japanese academic ability has declined and become useless.
The brains of the governors of the National Governors’ Association, who do not regard this as abnormal, are themselves abnormal.
For children who usually waste their time on smartphones and games, a decent person would think that the greatest opportunity in their lives to devote themselves to reading has arrived, and that the chance has come to make them realize the joy of study.
Do they not notice the strangeness and suspiciousness of the spectacle in which Asahi, NHK, and others echo the words and actions of some hopelessly low-level mothers?
Do they not understand that a country sustained by propaganda sees this moment as the greatest time to attack, the greatest opportunity to weaken its enemy?
What kind of brain could possibly think that the policy and lesson Japan should draw from the greatest postwar incident, a great disaster that all the leaders of the G6 have defined as a war, is September school admission?
It may be natural for Governor Koike of Tokyo, who repeats imitations of English phrases shamelessly and brazenly, only for the sake of a shameless performance for her own political life.
But Yoshimura.
Governor of Miyagi.
You are not people of the same kind as Koike.
To be continued.
