Thumbs up Here is why Japan advanced in 1800-1945 whereas China become poor nation

An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:

Japanese was able to fight off the evil Brit to contain the opium trades in the later 1800s and early 1900s in Japan that see Japan industrialization raised rapidly to catch up with the Pommie Americans in the early 1900s. Whereas China and SEA region and Singapore fell badly to the cruel evil Brit relentlessly attack to destroy Chinese with opium. The Brit was finding hard currency to fund their British Empire expansion with drug money at the expense of China and SEA Singapore region.

A weak China of drug addicts nation become easy target for any country, or Japan, to attack and run over.

After WW2, though Japan surrendered but it has gained enough industrialized technologies knowhow from the West to raise again in a short period of time. For China and SEA Chinese they are still fighting to eradicate opium from the Brit monopoly of opium trade till late 1945.

Do we or shall we want to bring up this dark days of China and SEA Singapore with the evil British today?

This dark and evil history of the evil Brit wished it did not exist and want to siam their shameless history against the Chinese.


The Japanese Opium Experience
Japan was, as far as I know, the only colonial power to execute faithfully the principles of opium suppression set forth at the Hague Convention in 1912, for Japan had been fighting opium addiction, at home and in her colonies, for decades. Japan persistently argued that drug trafficking was not only immoral but, in the long run, unprofitable.

One of Japan’s top priorities after taking Taiwan in 1895 was to end opium use. European smugglers were impotent against the Japanese’ efficient police organization and tight surveillance and investigation. Opium-related deaths in Taiwan plummeted from 215,476 in 1908 to 38,000 annually by 1923. Japan also suppressed opium smuggling into Korea.

At the Second Opium Conference, Mr. Sugimura of Japan complained that it “was beneath a nation’s dignity to derive so much revenue from opium,” and he urged Western powers to view the problem not just from a humanitarian viewpoint but from an economic one, noting that in Taiwan,
“Even from the economic and financial point of view, a sacrifice of revenue from opium was in reality a gain, since the productive power of the nation increased.”

Britain protested Japan’s attacks on ‘the justice and fairness of the British government,” but the Polish delegate agreed with the Japanese. He said that because of the smokescreen of rhetoric clouding Western opium monopolies, the world was further from eliminating opium in 1924 than it had been in 1913.

Lord Cecil finally dismissed mounting criticism by arguing that opium was “purely an Indian question…it does not appear to me to be a matter for international interference at all.”

Britain clung to her Hong Kong opium monopoly right up until 1945, when postwar profits no longer justified the embarrassment.
