The Japan's KYOUAIN Liaison Departmentand Of Puppet Mongolia Regime And Its Mineral Resources Exploit

After Japan began the total invasion of China,it rapidly occupied a large number of Chinese territory and established a number of puppet regime.In order to be able to integrate the policies of the puppet regime,and to facilitate the coordination with the central government of Japan,the Japanese government had the idea of establishing an agency for China policy intergration.After the controversy between the Japanese military,the Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs,on December 16,1938,the Japanese government finally set up the China policy agency — — Kou A In.One of the major functions of this agency is the economic plunder to China.It lasted until November 1942.With the Pacific War carrying on,it merged into a new larger foreign invasion agency,as the“China Affairs Bureau”of the “Ministry of Greater East Asia”.Kou A In also had four Liaison Departments in the North China,Central China,Southern China and Iner Mongolia,and one dispached bureau in Qingdao.All of them acted as a local agency of the Kou A In specificly inplemented its policy.Mongolia puppet regime is,as a “special mission region”,an anti-Communist and anti-Soviet region in politics,and the guard of the Manchuria,also had enormous economic resources.Kou A In naturally set up a Liaison Department in this area to implement their own policies.Every Iner Mongolia Liaison Department's executive is an active military officer,and its activities also was controled by the Japanese military.Iner Mongolia Liaison Department is under the condition of compromise and cooperate.It can be said that the Kou A In did not achieve the role ofinhibiting the force of japanese army.However,it has made a lot of positive investigations about the Iner Mongolia economy,established a number of cases and developed Iner Mongolia economy.It gave full play to the function of economic plunder.To plunder Mongolia mineral resources is one of the important objectives.To overcome its resources disadvantage,as an inland country,Japan adapted the new form and thoughts of war after the First World War,and certainly would intensify its foreign aggression,and push war through plundering the colony.Iner Mongolia was also one part of this big strategy.The main resources of Iner Mongolia in Japan's interest were mineral resources and wool.The former mainly were coal,iron ore and some rare minerals.Kou A In and Iner Mongolia Liaison Department on the basis of the so-called "key" policy,mainly plunder coal and iron ore resources,and mainly on Datong coal and Longyan iron ore,which has a long history of mining,mineral rich reserves,and good foundation.With the loss of imports,it has gradually stepped up the plundering of rare mineral resources,mainly in three aspects : mica,asbestos and graphite.Through the establishment of Japanese enterprise,it completely controled the mineral production.Japan's exploiting of these mineral resources,although increased the output objectively,but its predatory exploitation is in accordance with the requirements of war,the irrational destruction of the colonial production.This kind of mining is for the sake of Japan's foreign wars.Kou A In was not only the Japanese colonial rule of authority,but also Japan's war booster.
