Interesting JAPANESE PROPAGANDA TO PHILIPPINE SCOUT POWs

I found this cool little pamphlet on Ebay. It looks like it was aimed at "re-educating" Philippine Scouts" who were POWs to make them full fledged contributing members of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere! It announced a reeducation program designed to help the Philippine Scouts see things " the right way".

 

I doubt the Japanese had much luck. It does make for some interesting reading.

“Your spiritual eyes have been opened through your tribulations for more than five months in the battlefields, and your experiences of suffering imprisonment for more than three months in different concentration camps”


Wow, and the Imperial Japanese Forces tried to shut those eyes and blind the Filipinos from the fact that the IJF caused all of this suffering.


I’m sure you’re right, Kurt… I doubt the Scouts bought any of this. Thanks for sharing!
