S. Korean Organization Accuses Japan of Distorting History
Pyongyang, March 31 (KCNA) -- The Solidarity for Peace in Asia and Education in History of south Korea denounced Japan for distorting history on Mar. 26.

The organization referred to the fact that the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan passed the textbooks for senior high schools for next year, adding that Tok Islets are designated as Japan's territory in all textbooks of geography and political economy.

This proves that Japan seeks to use the textbooks as tools for inciting the revival of militarism and ambition of territorial expansion, the organization noted.

It urged the Japanese government to delete the part dealing with the claim to Tok Islets from the textbooks.
