Peace Boat, following our successful visit of last year
to the DPRK, will launch a voyage to visit both the North and South
of the Korean peninsula this summer. If this plan to go to both sides
of the 38th parallel succeeds, this will be the first citizen's group
to visit both sides of the divided peninsula since the end of the
Korean War.
Peace Boat believes that ordinary citizens have their parts to play
in healing the wounds of the past and building relationships for the
future. The unresolved issue of past Japanese colonialism in the Korean
peninsula continues to thwart progress towards the normalisation of
relations between Japan and Korea. Therefore, civil society should
make every effort to open alternative channels towards mutual understanding
through engaging in a variety of activities at a people-to-people
level.
With this goal in mind, our voyage will include people-to-people exchange
meetings and discussions with people as diverse as students, victims
of sexual slavery, hibakusha and NGO activists. |
