“NEW ORDER IN EAST ASIA”

ECONOMIC SIGNIFICANCE OF JAPAN'S AIMS: DANGER TO FOREIGN INTERESTS

BY DR. WONG WEN - HAO Chinese Minister Of Economics

The aim of the Japanese invasion in China has often been claimed by the spokesman of Japan to be the establishment of what they call "the new econo- mic order in East Asia." In order to achieve this aim, the Japanese Government is ready to fight to the bit- ter end against China and any third country who has veşted interests in the Far East.

The "new order" means, of course, sole-domina- tion by Japan at the expense of any other country. The actual work of establishing the new order was started in 1931 by the occupation of our Northeastern Provinces. There, the Japanese militarists created a 'new country "Manchukuo" which is supposed to have independent sovereignty. In reality; however, all the political and administrative power is placed in Japan- "ese hands and there is practically no difference at all

between "Manchukuo" and Korea. Now, the Japanese condi-: tion for peace with China is
