This chapter discusses the Kinugawa flood, the construction of a mega-solar power plant in Joso City, the excavation of a natural levee, residents’ testimony, the reduction of river improvement budgets under the Democratic Party administration, the promotion of solar power, and the alleged links between solar power interests, organized crime, and the Democratic Party’s support base, while quoting online articles and reports found at the time.

Support base.
(1) Jichiro, the All-Japan Prefectural and Municipal Workers Union.
(2) Nikkyoso, the Japan Teachers Union.
(3) Mindan, the Korean Residents Union in Japan.
(4) Chongryon, the General Association of Korean Residents in Japan, meaning Korean residents in Japan.
(5) The Buraku Liberation League.
(6) The Democratic Party and the yakuza.

1. Yakuza members = “60 percent are from Dowa backgrounds” and “30 percent are Korean residents in Japan”!
   The following is a chapter I published on July 20, 2018, under the title:
   Gang member C said, “The latest trend in shino gi is fraud.
   Solar power and FX are hot.
   The number of yakuza with legitimate occupations has increased enormously.
   …”
   What I have now found on the internet is the following article.

   The overflow was a man-made disaster!
   Renho and others in the Democratic Party administration greatly reduced “river improvement project expenses” through budget screening!
   The Democratic Party administration forced through solar power, which has great harmful effects!
   Under the policy of preferential treatment for solar power generation, solar panel installation was allowed to run wild!
   A construction company threatened residents!
   “If you make too much noise, you will no longer be able to live here.”
   Overriding residents’ opposition, they excavated the natural levee, lowered it by as much as two meters, and installed solar panels!
   Joso Mayor Takasugi Toru is an anti-Japanese far-left figure and a member of the “Mayors’ Conference for a Nuclear Power-Free Japan”!
   Joso City official: “If anything happens, please escape at your own responsibility!”
   At around 6:30 a.m. on September 10, 2015, the first “overflow” occurred from the place where the natural levee had been excavated for the installation of solar panels!!

   Solar panels that residents say triggered the inflow of muddy water.

   On the 11th, in Joso City, Ibaraki Prefecture, where a large-scale flood occurred from the Kinugawa River, resident Sakasai Masao, 67, said, “This is a man-made disaster.”
   In the city’s Wakamiyado district, a natural levee was cut away after construction of a large-scale solar power plant, or mega-solar plant, began around March of last year.
   It is believed that the muddy torrent caused by the heavy rain overflowed from that location and swallowed the residential area.
   Among nearby residents, Mr. Sakasai was the one who opposed the construction of the mega-solar plant until the very end.
   From around March of last year, he had appealed to officials of Joso City and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism about the danger of flooding from the Kinugawa River.
   In this flood, the levee in the city’s Misaka district broke, and overflow occurred in the Wakamiyado district.
   The construction site was private land, but he kept raising his voice, saying, “There was fear of losing life and property.
   Citizens have the right to protect them.”
   However, in May of that year, an official at the city’s Ishige Government Building dismissed him by saying, “If anything happens, please escape at your own responsibility.”
   “I was treated like a nuisance.”
   Without the authorities taking his side, Mr. Sakasai became isolated in the community.
   A natural levee two to three meters high was cut down over a length of about 150 meters.
   Endo Reiko, 59, whose home faces the mega-solar construction site, said, “Thanks to the natural levee and the thickly growing trees, in the old days you could not see the Kinugawa River even from the second floor.”
   Mr. Sakasai said angrily, “It is truly frustrating.”
   The remains of his wife Sachiko, who died of illness in November 2013 at the age of 60, were still at his home.
   Holding Sachiko’s wheelchair, covered in debris, he burst into tears and said, “I fought all along, saying they must not cut down the levee, in order to protect my wife too.”
   Muddy water flowed into his home, and all of the roses and the kitchen garden that his wife loved were washed away.
   A woman in her fifties living nearby said she was threatened by the construction company.
   She recalled, “When I said, ‘Don’t cut down the hill because it is dangerous,’ they intimidated me by saying, ‘If you make too much noise, you will no longer be able to live here.
   Is that all right with you?’”
   A woman in her twenties whose home suffered devastating damage expressed her anger, saying, “I want the residents to unite and sue the city or the national government.”
   In place of the cut-down natural levee, only sandbags had been piled up.
   Mr. Sakasai regretted it beyond words, saying, “What I feared has actually happened.
   Unless things turn out like this, no one understands.”

On the 11th, in Joso City, Ibaraki Prefecture, where a large-scale flood occurred from the Kinugawa River, resident Sakasai Masao, 67, said, “This is a man-made disaster.”
In the city’s Wakamiyado district, a natural levee was cut away after construction of a large-scale solar power plant, or mega-solar plant, began around March of last year.
It is believed that the muddy torrent caused by the heavy rain overflowed from that location and swallowed the residential area.
Exactly right!
Without question, excavating the natural levee for the installation of the mega-solar plant and lowering it by as much as two meters was the cause of the first overflow at around 6:30 a.m. on September 10, and it was nothing other than a “man-made disaster”!

The most recent image.
The construction site was private land, but he kept raising his voice, saying, “There was fear of losing life and property.
Citizens have the right to protect them.”
However, in May of that year, an official at the city’s Ishige Government Building dismissed him by saying, “If anything happens, please escape at your own responsibility.”
If “If anything happens, please escape at your own responsibility” is enough, then there is no reason for city officials to exist.
I will discuss this in detail later, but Joso Mayor Takasugi Toru is an anti-Japanese far-left figure active in Jichiroren, and is a member of the “Mayors’ Conference for a Nuclear Power-Free Japan.”
http://blog-imgs-83.fc2.com/d/e/l/deliciousicecoffee/154.jpg
It is entirely conceivable that Takasugi Toru, the Democratic Party-affiliated anti-Japanese far-left mayor of Joso City who aims for “abolition of nuclear power,” colluded with the contractor in order to profit from solar power interests and also pressured city officials.
A woman in her fifties living nearby said she was threatened by the construction company.
She recalled, “When I said, ‘Don’t cut down the hill because it is dangerous,’ they intimidated me by saying, ‘If you make too much noise, you will no longer be able to live here.
Is that all right with you?’”
There is no doubt that the construction company that threatened residents by saying, “If you make too much noise, you will no longer be able to live here.
…” was an organized crime group, or yakuza.
It is an undeniable fact that organized crime is deeply involved in the solar power that Kan Naoto, Son Masayoshi, and others in the Democratic Party administration promoted and forced through to an abnormal extent.

The organ newspaper of Japan’s largest organized crime group, the Yamaguchi-gumi, has been revived!
What is the truth behind it?

Kudo-kai affiliated gang executive arrested.
Suspected of stealing solar panels.
Fukuoka Prefectural Police.
Updated September 10, 2015, 11:06, Sankei Shimbun.
By the 10th, the Fukuoka Prefectural Police had arrested Kanemitsu Hajime, 52, an executive of an organization affiliated with the Kudo-kai, a specially designated dangerous organized crime group based in Kitakyushu, on suspicion of theft, for allegedly being involved in the theft of one thousand solar panels from the construction site of a large-scale solar power plant, or mega-solar plant.
The total number of arrests in the series of incidents reached seventeen.
According to Investigation Division 3, Kanemitsu is believed to have been the leader of the group.
The arrest charge is that in late October of last year, he conspired with Kudo-kai affiliated members and others to steal one thousand panels, worth about 30 million yen, from a construction site in Munakata City, Fukuoka Prefecture.
Furthermore, Japan’s largest designated organized crime group, the Yamaguchi-gumi, had issued instructions by the House of Councillors election in July 2007 at the latest to support the Democratic Party, and it is a fact that yakuza groups such as the Yamaguchi-gumi had supported and backed the Democratic Party for quite some time.
The reason the Yamaguchi-gumi supports the Democratic Party includes the fact that there are many Korean residents in Japan and South Korean residents in Japan within the Yamaguchi-gumi, but if the organization issues an internal order to “support the Democratic Party,” it is, after all, because there is a business, or trade, advantage.

“Support the Democratic Party!”
Organized crime group Yamaguchi-gumi instructs direct-line bosses nationwide to “support the Democratic Party”…investigative authorities also paying attention.
October 11, 2007, zakzak.
It was learned on the 11th from the testimony of people concerned that, in the House of Councillors election this July, in which the Liberal Democratic Party suffered a crushing defeat, Japan’s largest designated organized crime group, the Yamaguchi-gumi, headquartered in Kobe, issued instructions to its direct-line organizations to support the Democratic Party.
With sources of funds being cut off by strengthened police crackdowns, investigative authorities such as the Hyogo Prefectural Police and Osaka Prefectural Police are also paying attention, seeing the possibility that the group sought to demonstrate its presence by exercising political influence and to enter new interests.
According to people concerned, the instructions regarding the House of Councillors election were conveyed by telephone from Yamaguchi-gumi headquarters to more than ninety direct-line bosses nationwide immediately before the official campaign announcement.
What is known about that instruction is that its content was, “Support the Democratic Party.”
In Ehime, in fact, an executive of the Ito-kai, Matsuyama-kai, affiliated with the Yamaguchi-gumi, was arrested on suspicion of violating the Public Offices Election Act, for allegedly promising cash to voters as compensation for gathering votes for Tomochika, a former J-League player, 32, who was elected for the first time.
A person connected with organized crime testified, “They may have carried out the instruction to support the Democratic Party without even knowing the candidate.”
The rest omitted.
As described above, the Democratic Party’s support base includes organized crime groups, such as the Yamaguchi-gumi.
