I found this page while reading about Hongkong, and it's a shambles. If anyone knows about Arita, feel free to fill in. I can't understand some of what the original contributor wrote.

Somethings not entirely right here...

I get the feeling that one person has taken upon himself to start to change if not mess with the list of governer generals of korea, im going edit this page and try to clean it up. if this continues then im going to post this to the admins and get this pages locked or put under watch.

Ok decided to clean this page up

I decided to remove the following paragraph;

He was an important Japanese military strategist, and a Kodoha party member. Arita was a convinced supporter of the Axis Powers alliance and your political and military collaboration with them. He engineered a pact with the Axis powers, against the USSR.

The "Greater Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere" concept is also considered his brainchild. He was known in the Tokyo Club group (for active and retired politicians), with Kichisaburo Nomura, another foreign minister, Renzo Sawada, ex-ambassador to France, Juji Kasai, member of the Representatives Chamber, and Count Aisuke Kabayama member of the Chamber of Peers.

There is no references put on page confirming this so until someone can put references or properly do research into this it will remain here untill then. If anyone has a issue or problem please do feel free to mail me. Andrew Chung 14:27, 15 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That assertion comes from the article itself, Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere. --Steve, Sm8900 22:46, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
If you're still alive, could you have a look at the topic I entered into record a few moments ago. I have no knowledge of Arita, nor the Russian diplomat mentioned in my post. Perhaps you could gain or share some information based on this news article I mentioned. It is information directly from 1932. LauHir (talk) 05:27, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Arita and Yurenev

I was exploring and abandoned old building in Turku, Finland. In the attic of that building I found an old newspaper from 1932. In this newspaper there was an article on a Russian diplomat named Yurenev, and it involved Arita. Yurenev had to my understanding leaked information on the dealings between Germany and Japan to Moscow Radio. They said that Yurenev had falsified some aspects of this information. Whether he did or not is information that I do not have, but the tabloids and newspapers reported on the Japanese saying that he did not accurately portray German-Japanese dealings. Arita said, that Yurenev would no longer receive any classified diplomatic information from Japan.

To someone who knows more, perhaps this could be some useful information. To the rest of us, it is an interesting piece of direct data from a news source from 1932. I took an image of this article. I however did not read the actual magazine this information was in. Due to Finland being a small country, this information was more than likely not some scoop for some Finnish journalist, but that it was public information shared in the immediate prologue to World War II.
