Posted in: 55% of Okinawans unhappy with 50 years since reversion to Japan: poll See in context
I've lived in Okinawa for over 42 years and have been very active with both Okinawan and American communities. Most of my local friends of all ages and genders are very well educated and provide great feedback on their feelings about bases here. ALmost 80% or more fully understand the need for these bases and feel Okinawans are provided enough financial compensation to support them. I have to dispute your survey source, please let us know who was surveyed.

The only people responsible in delaying any more returns is the political arm of the Okinawa government. Let the process go thru and Futenma will be returned.
