SUBJECT: TOKYO MEDIA REACTION - NORTH KOREA AND ANTI- 
WESTERN SENTIMENT IN CHINA 
 
 
1. LEAD STORIES: Top stories on Tuesday morning include 
alleged insider trading by a Nomura Securities employee 
and Monday's rocket attack on a Japanese tanker by a 
small unidentified vessel off Yemen. 
 
2. "Japan-ROK Summit Should Be Start of New Ties" The 
top-circulation, moderate Yomiuri argued (4/22): "The 
issue of North Korea's nuclear development is now at a 
critical juncture. With this in mind, Japanese and 
South Korean leaders agreed to enhance trilateral 
coordination with the U.S. and to call for North Korea 
to provide a complete and correct nuclear 
declaration.... As an accurate declaration of the 
volume of plutonium Pyongyang has produced is at the 
core of the problem, an easy compromise cannot be 
permitted. Accepting a false declaration would allow 
North Korea to secretly maintain its nuclear capability 
in the future." 
 
3. "Fresh Start Needed" The liberal Tokyo Shimbun 
contended (4/22): "Japan, South Korea, and the U.S. 
bear heavy responsibility for ensuring stability in 
Northeast Asia. Any schism among the three would 
prevent them from fulfilling their international roles. 
Reaffirmation of enhanced coordination is welcomed.... 
An easy compromise on the part of the Bush 
administration meant to create a 'legacy' before the 
President steps down would create problems for the 
future. In order to prevent loopholes, close 
communications among the three partners are 
imperative." 
 
4. "Use Tripartite Coordination to Prod North Korea" 
The liberal Asahi contended (4/22): "There used to be a 
venue for dialogue on the North Korean nuclear issue 
among senior U.S., Japanese, and South Korea officials. 
The venue went into disuse in the face of disarray 
among the three nations during the tenure of former ROK 
President Roh. The three nations should swiftly revive 
such a consultative framework. Ensuring progress on the 
nuclear front would give Japan greater leeway to 
realize progress on the abduction issue." 
 
5. "World Concerned about Rising Nationalism in China" 
The business-oriented Nikkei editorialized (4/22): 
"(The recent attack on a French supermarket in China by 
a mob) serves as a reminder of the volatility of the 
Chinese market, as whenever China confronts a 
diplomatic challenge, protests and demonstrations 
against specific foreign enterprises flare up.... 
Following the recent unrest in Tibet, the Chinese 
government has refused to accept international monitors 
and has continued to denounce the Dalai Lama. In order 
to prevent the spread of unchecked nationalism, the 
Chinese government should allow the entrance of 
international monitors and free reporting by domestic 
and foreign media regarding the situation in Tibet."
