This passage examines the uproar over the sudden appearance of the Ehime memo from the perspective of a linkage among Chongryon, Jichirō, Asahi Shimbun, and NHK.
Drawing also on the author’s own experiences in Matsuyama, it harshly accuses a deeper structure connecting local government, labor unions, the media, and what it presents as anti-Japan political manipulation.

Chongryon, Jichirō, Asahi Shimbun, and NHK.
With this alone, can one not immediately understand the matter of the sudden appearance of this memo?
Even so, how long does Japan intend to continue in such a condition?

What follows is from a chapter I published one year earlier.

Speaking of Ehime Prefecture, I remembered that it is also a prefecture where Chongryon has put down roots.
That is because, when total volume controls were imposed and business was in a state of genuine deadlock, there was a period when I visited Matsuyama many times after being introduced to the claim that among their members there was an enormously wealthy person.
I also played golf with them several times at a famous golf course in Matsuyama.
Matsuyama is where there is a Chongryon branch with abundant funds.
It is a powerful branch.
Given this fact, and the fact that the one Ehime Prefectural Government employee whose name and face still have not been made public, and who apparently does not seem to be a career bureaucrat, is almost certainly a member of Jichirō, which makes anti-Japan and anti-government positions its principle and is, in short, an organization controlled by radical activists.
Chongryon, Jichirō, Asahi Shimbun, and NHK.
With this alone, can one not immediately understand the matter of the sudden appearance of this memo?
Even so, how long does Japan intend to continue in such a condition?
If it had been Nobunaga, he would surely have raised a mighty voice and immediately subjugated those who endangered Japan through such treacherous schemes.
The intuition that arose from my own experience above, together with what is revealed about the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries in the genuine work I introduced yesterday, a book that may truly be called essential reading for all Japanese people, Baikoku Giin.
I will introduce that in the next chapter.
By connecting the above with yet another single civil servant in that same ministry, this memo uproar is completed.
As already stated, for countries of “bottomless evil” and “plausible lies,” forging documents is an everyday occurrence.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that this has already become common sense for them.
The misuse of photographs had long ago already been made clear in the materials on the Nanjing Massacre and in such fabrications as South Korea’s prison island narrative.
