"Comfort Women" Issue Surfaces Again In Queens
BY CELESTE KATZ
City Councilman Peter Koo made headlines earlier this year when he took up the controversial cause of Asian comfort women -- young girls taken as sex slaves by the Japanese Imperial Army during World War II.
Our Lisa L. Colangelo reports:
Koo, a Democrat from Flushing, has worked with local historians and ethnic groups on plans for a memorial and street renaming. And he’s taken heat from some Japanese lawmakers and citizens, who claim the women were willing prostitutes, not slaves.
So it struck some people as odd when his City Council colleague Dan Halloran put out a press release earlier this week announcing a City Hall press conference about the issue without so much as calling Koo’s office.
Halloran, a Republican, is locked in a tough race with Democratic Assemblywoman Grace Meng for the Sixth Congressional district seat.
The comfort women issue is a hot topic and vitally important to many Asian-American civic leaders, especially those in the Korean-American community.
The News asked Halloran’s campaign why he left out Koo, a popular political figure who switched from the Republican Party to the Democratic Party earlier this year. Koo has also endorsed Meng.
Halloran issued this response:
“The planning is still in process and not final. We are currently receiving responses from several coalition members regarding their schedule to attend, including the Korean General Consulate and the Korean Association of Greater N.Y. among other key community leaders.
"This press conference was produced after receiving hundreds of anti-comfort women groups from Japan who were angry with recent development by CM Koo's decision to rename street names. I'm in complete support of my colleague's effort in his community, and this event is completely independent of his ongoing project.
"This event is about doing the right thing for my constituents, even if it's not the easiest thing to do. In the end, what we are trying to accomplish is to remember and honor thousands of victims of sexual slavery during World War 2.”
Update: The presser has been postponed due to the expected arrival of Hurricane Sandy.
Koo’s office responded with the statement:
"Councilman Peter Koo understands that the comfort women issue is extremely sensitive and must be handled with care and respect. Consequently, he has met with his constituents in private and is moving forward with quiet determination to achieve their desire to have a street co-naming and memorial erected to honor comfort women."
(Separately, the Halloran campaign, in an email to reporters, questioned why Meng's campaign literature lists her as endorsed by the New York Times, which supported her in the June Democratic primary but has not made a pick for the general election. Meng spokesman Austin Finan brushed off the complaint as "semantics," saying the NYT endorsement made plain that the paper "wants to see Grace Meng in Congress." -- CK)
