A few days back it has been reported that South Korea is about to scrap down the Japan-funded 'comfort women' charity. The charity was set up in the year 2018, with the major aim of providing the war sex slaves with a better lifestyle and help them to restore their dignity. The charity has been funded by Japan because of the wartime violence and enslavement of the South Korean women. Japan give roughly 1 billion Yen which will be $6-7 billion when converted. The initial progress was good and but later this year, Korea faced a lot of pressure from the people.
The South Korean Prime Minister had stated that the plan is not being carried out well and that they are not willing to continue the process anymore. This has stirred the Japanese as well who have said that the contract they had signed was final and irreversible when signed in 2015. The exact cause of this decision by South Korea is still unknown but it may happen because of the mismanagement of the Japanese authorities and pressure of the people who do not want the help of Japan.
