Significance of the establishment of Asian Women's Foundation
In order to compensate the problem of comfort women, the Japanese government once set up the so-called "Asian Women's Foundation" (dissolved in 2007, the full name is "Asian Women's National Fund for Peace") for former comfort women. On February 27th, 2065 438+2004, Haruki Wada, an emeritus professor at Tokyo University and a former special director of the fund, revealed that the fund paid 2 million yen (about 654.38+0.2 million yuan) in compensation to 60 former comfort women in South Korea, and the recipients only accounted for about 30% of the number of former comfort women recognized by the Korean government. This is the first time that the specific number of people paid by the foundation has been exposed. Hotan said: "In order to think about what needs to be done to solve the problem of comfort women, it is necessary to verify the activities of the foundation."
