An interesting post by FUSOU NOTE - 扶桑雑記 - on the Yakuza and the DPJ. The writer responds to a post by Jake Adelstein and his claim that the Yakuza is now supporting the DPJ. [Fusou Note] "I just noticed that the December 2009 issue of the FCCJ's Number 1 Shimbun had a report entitled "Jake Adelstein and Tokyo Vice" by Gavin Blair. The report mentions an Adelstein's claim that the Japan's largest yakuza group, Yamaguchi-gumi, is supporting the DPJ.Something that definitely falls into the controversial category is Adelstein’s claim that the Yamaguchi-gumi – Japan’s largest criminal organization – switching its traditional support for the LDP over to the DPJ about a year before the Democrats’ election victory."Click here to read the rest of the story.[ad#468x60-ad]
