Abstract
The Armenian Genocide has had some echoes as far away as East Asian countries. Local Armenian communities have somehow raised awareness about what happened to the Armenian population in the Ottoman Empire. The writer and publicist Diana Apcar in particular wrote a series of articles, pamphlets and books about the Armenian genocide. We also found knowledge of the Armenian massacres in the testimonies of two Japanese, expressed in 1916 and 1919.
When the Near East Relief organization was founded in 1919, it also established branches in China, Korea and Japan. In 1920 the Committee of Armenian refugees of Mesopotamia sent an envoy to India and Far East countries for fundraising. The mission was successful due to donations by Armenian and non-Armenian donors from China, Hong Kong, Japan and Indonesia.
Nowadays there is a certain interest in the issue of the Armenian Genocide in academic circles of Japan and Korea. In particular, lawyer Hiroyoshi Segawa examines the juridical side of the Genocide in his studies.
