  • Summary, etc. - "When MacArthur landed at Leyte island on Oct 20, 1944, Filipino local people welcomed US army as liberation army from Japanese imperialism and they rose up to fight against Japanese Imperial army as 'anti-Japanese guerrilla'. Based on the historical fact, this book describes that the military governor by Japanese Imperial army was very poor because of making enemies of Filipino as a result and that tragedy which resulted in bringing another country into a fight. At the same time, the book also tries to draw contemporary lessons when Japan tries to emerge economic advance and provide assistance into developing countries on the basis of the historical lessons learnt from Japanese war experience." - Masuko Takehisa
