August 7, 2015 Ryukyu Shimpo
Recently, Kenzaburo Oe, winner of the Nobel Prize for literature, sent to the Ryukyu Shimpo a letter about his engagement with Okinawa over many years and about the new military base being built to replace MCAS Futenma. Regarding the situation in Henoko, Nago City, where the construction of a new base is being pushed forward forcefully, Oe appealed to the people of Japan, writing, “I want to send my heartfelt encouragement to the powerful, determined fight being carried out in Okinawa against the Abe administration. We need to echo this spirit throughout all of Japan.”
