From 1932 on, the Japanese Imperial Army and Navy set up a secret system of ‘comfort stations’ in all occupied regions throughout Southeast Asia: from China and French Indochina to the Dutch East Indies and the Pacific islands. The victims represent at least 35 countries, city-states and autonomous regions.

Seventy-seven years after World War II, new evidence proves that the number of nationalities and ethnicities involved was much higher than previously assumed. And that the Burma-Thailand Railway and the Dutch East Indies (present-day Indonesia) form blind spots in international research. The evidence was discovered in various archives in The Netherlands, the UK, US, Malaysia, Australia and New Zealand by investigative reporter Griselda Molemans.
