Nippon Very Sorry- Many Men Must Die (1990) By QLD Ex-POW Reparation Com.
In 1990 the Queensland Ex-POW Reparations Committee, of the Queensland Ex-Prisoners of War Association, prepared a comprehensive and factual submission to The United Nations Commission on Human Rights claiming reparations from the Japanese via the United Nations.
Between 1942 and 1945, 22,000 Australian service personnel were prisoners of war of the Imperial Japanese Army. Over 7000 of these men and women died while they were captives of the Japanese. Many have since died as a result of their prisoner of war experience.
A highly interesting book that was put together by surviving POWs in Queensland Australia. It contains specific examples of POW human rights violations of these men between 1942 in 1945. Most of the major POW locations are mentioned the Burma Siam Railway, where there is a very graphic account amongst others, of how much space was allotted to each man in the holds of transport ships.
