Timeline

Takami Eto (江藤 隆美) was a Japanese politician and former member of Japan's House of Representatives.

Born in Hyūga, Miyazaki, Takami Eto studied at the Tomitaka business school (now Kadokawa High School), and graduated the Miyazaki Agriculture and Forestry College (now University of Miyazaki).

After graduation, he ran for the Miyazaki prefecture assembly, and was elected three terms.

1910

Additionally, Etō defended the 1910 Japan-Korea Annexation Treaty which gave Japan control over Korea.

He stated in a speech, "Why was the country-to-country treaty called an invasion?...What's the difference between that and a merger of a town and a village?" Etō also actively lobbied against school textbooks which mentioned so-called "comfort women" Comfort women were women from across Asia, including Koreans, whom Japanese troops forced into sexual slavery during World War II.

Etō also denied the existence of the Nanjing massacre, which he considered as a hoax.

Takami Etō's son, Taku Etō, took his father's seat in the House of Representatives of Japan.

A conservative politician, Takami Etō joined in 1973 the political club Seirankai (青嵐会 - 'Mountain wind') founded by Shintaro Ishihara, one of Japan's most prominent "far right" politicians.

He was called "Japan's Le Pen" on a program broadcast on Australia's ABC.

Eto was once considered a major power broker in Japan's Liberal Democratic Party.

1990

Eto served as the Japanese construction minister during the early 1990s, but resigned from the Management and Coordination Agency in 1995 following controversial comments regarding Japan's treatment of occupied countries during World War II.

1995

He resigned from his post as minister in 1995 following comments in which he stated that Japan "did some good things" when it governed Korea, including building railroads, roads and schools.

Etō's comments threatened to cancel an important summit between South Korea's then President Kim Young-sam, whose government objected to Etō's comments, and then Japanese Prime Minister Tomiichi Murayama, a socialist who led Japan's coalition government, before Etō's resignation.
