In the run-up to the August anniversary of the end of World War II, Amnesty International is calling for justice for former ‘comfort women’ in Japan.
During the war, up to 200,000 women and girls were forced into sexual slavery by the Japanese military. These women and girls were kept in ‘comfort stations’ in China, Taiwan, Borneo, Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, Myanmar (formerly known as Burma), Indonesia and many of the Pacific Islands.
