Thank you for your consideration. Senhiro Yasue (1888-1950) was a Japanese Army officer. He graduated from the 21st class of the Army War College. His final rank was Colonel. He is known as an expert on Jewish issues in the Imperial Japanese Army. In February 1935, following consultations with Dr. Kaufman, chairman of the Far Eastern Jewish Congress, and other executives in Harbin, he founded the "World Ethnic Culture Association" as an organization to promote friendship between the Japanese and Jewish peoples. With medical doctor Kenzo Isobe as advisor and Yasue himself as chairman, Yasue devoted himself to the protection of Jews in Manchuria, and also assisted Muslims and White Russians. Even Abraham Kōji, a Jewish scholar who disliked Yasue due to his translation of "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion," acknowledged in his memoir "From Tokyo to Jerusalem" (1975) that "The Dalian Special Agency was led by Colonel Yasue. Jews who felt affection for the work in Manchuria felt indebted to Yasue, and it is indeed true that Yasue assisted Jews in many ways." Michael Kogan, a Russian Jew who lived in Manchuria before the war, founded the game software and hardware company "Taito" in Japan after the war. Kogan, who felt deeply indebted to Yasue for his efforts to protect Jews during their time in Manchuria, was concerned that Yasue had not had a funeral after his death in a POW camp in Khabarovsk. In 1954, he offered, "The Jewish Association in Japan will cover all expenses, so please do as you wish."
