NHK Japan has given us a glimpse into the struggle of the PNLSC, alongside Nikkei-jin who were separated from their families, regardless of whether they remained in the Philippines, or were repatriated to Japan.
Featuring Teruko Miyagi, born of Japanese parents in Davao, who has been in search for any of her 9 (nine) siblings for over half a century.
