Japanese Communist Party grew rapidly in the 1950s.
Its radical union activities, especially in the Japan National Railroad, had often paralyzed the Japanese economy and did not cease until as late as 1973 when thousands of ordinary citizens stood up with rioting against them in the major railroad stations in Tokyo.
Re-educated Japanese from Soviet Union circa 1947.
There were more than a million such guys together with from China.

Tokyo uprises at last in 1973

Thanks. I think it was the era of communists vs nationalists or Soviet (Russia/China) vs Japan in the far east.

Boss of the Japanese nationalists next to Godfather.
He worked for CIA in the postwar for sometime but known as a philanthropist to Japanese people.

Yoshio Kodama (1911-1984)
He was a leading political merchant for the Japanese military as a nationalist.
Agent of CIA in the postwar and also worked for Lockheed Corp to let the Japanese government purchase its products.

Very good question, MM
It was All Nippon Airways aka ANA.
The then PM Kakuei Tanaka promoted this business positively to get the bribe from Lockheed Corp through Kodama. They had been arrested later.
