Well, I didn't here about it until i moved here. Since then I have done about 2 yrs and DD. Fascinating story! I can't understand why it is not more widely spoken about. Many stories and many books can be written however there aren't many.
I have done any digging or searching yet but that doesn't stop the locals from telling me the stories and inviting me to search and dig. I am still in the learning and planning mode.
How about you? Any research on the topic ( Golden Lily, Yamashita Treasure, Kin no yuri)?
I am interested more on the individual IJA soldiers hidden treasure. There are so many. The Philippines is literally littered with treasure. Golds Bars and Diamonds are being found today.
Just a note: It was reported to the UN from the 12 countries the Japanese Invaded the a total of 950,000 metric tons of GOLD was taken. Imaging! That does not even account for jewels, etc...
