A most flagrant case of Japanese mal- administration in Korea is alleged to have been the so-called Nagamori land scheme. The project was broached by a bold Japanese speculator by the name of Nagamori, who, taking advantage of the chaotic state in the peninsula inci- dent to the war with Russia, persuaded the Korean ruler to grant him a gigantic concession, authorizing him to redeem all the waste lands in that country. This plan was formed so secretly that even the Japanese authorities had had
...little knowledge of it until its originator made it known to them with a view to securing their assistance in its execution. In its inception the plan was not necessarily objectionable, inasmuch as there was an immense area of fallow land, which ought to have been brought under the plough. But however harmless and even good the intentions of its originator might have been, it was evident that the proposal was ill-timed, for Japan ought to have devoted all her energies to the reform of internal affairs in Korea be- fore embarking upon any undertaking of this nature.
