[High school baseball] Kyoto Governor Nishiwaki requests deletion of discriminatory posts about Kyoto International High School after the Koshien victory... slanderous comments continue about Korean school song, etc.
Kyoto Governor requests removal of discriminatory posts about Kyoto International High School, winner of Koshien, following a string of slanders including Korean school song Kyoto Governor Takatoshi Nishiwaki announced at a regular press conference on the 23rd that he had requested the Kyoto District Legal Affairs Bureau and the site operator to remove four malicious, ethnically discriminatory comments posted online regarding Kyoto International High School, which won the National High School Baseball Championship. Three of them have already been deleted. The high school was originally a Korean ethnic school. Three years ago, when the school made it to the top four in the nation, it was hit by a series of discriminatory posts and slander because its school song was in Korean. Believing that a similar incident could occur this time, the prefecture had been checking online posts since the 19th. The comments contained ethnic discrimination and derogatory content and were posted on the short message posting site x (formerly Twitter), and by the 23rd the prefecture had requested the Kyoto District Legal Affairs Bureau and the site operator to delete them. Governor Nishiwaki, who watched the final from the Alps stands at Koshien Stadium, said, “Discriminatory posts and slander are scattered throughout the site. This is behavior that should never happen and will never be tolerated,” he said, calling for people to strictly refrain from discriminatory posts.
Sekiichi lost the game when they had runners on first and second with no outs in the 10th inning >>1 At this point, they probably had about a 70% chance of scoring, so the path to victory was to not let the leadoff batter get on base.
The Japan High School Baseball Federation (JHSFB) has decided that the Japanese high school baseball team, Samurai Japan, participating in the U-18 World Cup, which begins on the 30th in Gijang, South Korea, will no longer wear the traditional polo shirts featuring the Japanese flag, but will instead wear plain ones. Japanese baseball is anti-Japanese and Korean.
It would be understandable if a Korean person sang the school song in Korean, but it seems strange for a Japanese person to sing the school song in Korean.
The Sea of Japan is called the Sea of Japan because the Japanese archipelago is located there. The Philippine Sea is the Philippine Sea because it contains the Izu Islands and the Mariwan Islands. If it is not recognized as the Philippine Sea, no one will recognize the coastal Sea of Japan either. West of Izu is the Philippine Sea. If the Pacific Ocean is in the school song in Kochi or Wakayama, the Pacific Ocean should be changed to the Philippine Sea.
You were eligible to participate, you didn’t cheat, you played fair and square, and you won, so what’s your problem? ⎛´・ω・`⎞ If you have a problem, isn’t it all the fault of your alma mater for losing? (´ ・ω・`)9m.
Compared to last year’s Keio tournament, where the tournament was messed up at the request of the business world, Kyoto International is fighting fair and square, which is great.
If you make junior high school graduates sing songs like “Tokai” without knowing anything about it, it’s no different from anti-Japanese education that is instilled in them without them even realizing it.
>>53 They come in because they want to sing. The boys are in baseball and the girls are in K-pop. If they’re operating under Korean teaching guidelines, I wonder if there’s any room for Japanese teaching guidelines.
