  • Effects of Constructing a New Airport on Ishigaki Island
    Island Sustainability II 181 Effects of constructing a new airport on Ishigaki Island Y. Maeno1, H. Gotoh1, M. Takezawa1 & T. Satoh2 1Nihon University, Japan 2Nihon Harbor Consultants Ltd., Japan Abstract Okinawa Prefecture marked the 40th anniversary of its reversion to Japanese sovereignty from US control in 2012. Such isolated islands are almost under the environment separated by the mainland and the sea, so that they have the economic differences from the mainland and some policies for being active isolated islands are taken. It is necessary to promote economical measures in order to increase the prosperity of isolated islands through initiatives involving tourism, fisheries, manufacturing, etc. In this study, Ishigaki Island was considered as an example of such an isolated island. Ishigaki Island is located to the west of the main islands of Okinawa and the second-largest island of the Yaeyama Island group. Ishigaki Island falls under the jurisdiction of Okinawa Prefecture, Japan’s southernmost prefecture, which is situated approximately half-way between Kyushu and Taiwan. Both islands belong to the Ryukyu Archipelago, which consists of more than 100 islands extending over an area of 1,000 km from Kyushu (the southwesternmost of Japan’s four main islands) to Taiwan in the south. Located between China and mainland Japan, Ishigaki Island has been culturally influenced by both countries. Much of the island and the surrounding ocean are protected as part of Iriomote-Ishigaki National Park. Ishigaki Airport, built in 1943, is the largest airport in the Yaeyama Island group. The runway and air security facilities were improved in accordance with passenger demand for larger aircraft, and the airport became a tentative jet airport in May 1979.

  • US Military Facilities and Areas
    1 2 Although 59 years have passed since the end of the Second World War, Okinawa, which accounts for only 0.6 percent of Japan's total land area, still hosts vast military bases, which represent approximately 74.7 percent of all facilities exclusively used by U.S. Forces Japan. U.S. military bases account for roughly 10.4 percent of the total land area of Okinawa, and 18.8 percent of the main island of Okinawa where population and industries are concentrated. Number of Facilities 3 Sapporo Japan Sea Sendai Seoul THE REPUBLIC OF KOREA Tokyo Osaka Yellow Sea Pusan Nagoya Fukuoka JAPAN Shanghai Kagoshima East China Sea Ryukyu OKINAWA Fuzhou Islands Naha Taipei Miyako Island Ishigaki Island 500Km TAIWAN 1,000Km Luzon THE REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES 1,500Km Manila 2,000Km Mindanao Palau Borneo Okinawa, which accounts for approximately 0.6% of the total land area of Japan, is the nation's southwestern-most prefecture. It consists of 160 islands, which are scattered over a wide area of ocean span- ning 1,000km from east to west and 400km from north to south. Approximately 1.35 million people live on fifty of these islands. From the prefectural capital of Naha city, it takes about two hours and 30 minutes to fly to Tokyo (approx. 1,550km), one hour and 30 minutes to Shanghai, China (approx. 820km), and one hour to Taipei, Tai- wan (approx. 630km). As Okinawa is situated in a critical location connecting mainland Japan, the Chinese 4 Continent and the nations of Southeast Asia, we expect that Okinawa will become a center for exchange be- tween Japan and the various nations of East and Southeast Asia.
