Me and Chika | Memo from a bereaved family member of the Henoko boat capsizing accident

One of the reasons my father created this blog is to convey the truth about Chika accurately.
Chika didn't go to Okinawa to support someone else's cause.
She was just a girl who studied the history, economy, and culture of the Battle of Okinawa, worried about her makeup and clothes, and was looking forward to a 3-night, 4-day trip to Okinawa with her friends.
I've heard that there's been almost no coverage of this accident on Okinawan television or in newspapers.
It's possible that some people still believe Chika participated in the protests.
We would be grateful if you could tell older people in Okinawa, who don't use social media much, about our Note account so that they can get to know the real Chika.

From Chika's older sister
