Source 10 : Response from MOWCAP SG to Japan's request

 From: MOWCAP Secretary-General, September 20, 2022

To: Japanese National Commission for UNESCO

Subject: RE:RE: RE: Response to the inquiries on the 'Naebang-gasa' nomination


Dear ........ , 

Thanks for your message. The attachment does not appear to be accessible? Can you please share again? 

Regarding the incidental process, as I outlined clearly in our response to your email of the 12th of August 2022, the information contained in the contestation forms was too general to proceed. This is why we requested you to share more detailed information about the contestation by the 30th of September 2022. In the meantime, we have worked with colleagues nominating parties to provide access to the nominated material (which they have very kindly helped to do). This approach was taken in the spirit of cooperation dialogue which has been part of MOWCAP for the last 24 years. 

If the Gov. of Japan would like to proceed with the three (3) contestations then please share the revised MOWCAP contestation forms with the specific grounds for contestation outlined in the form. Please do this by the 30th of September 2022. Please send the forms along with a formal letter from the Japanese Natcom directly to MOWCAP (please use the previous email thread for this). This process will trigger the MOWCAP contestation under section N and the dossiers will be removed from assessment in the 2022 round of nominations. 

I had hoped that through cooperation and discussion-what MOWCAP is really about- that the concerns could be addressed without a formal contestation of the files. However, regrettably it seems that this is not possible. This is a shame and I am sorry for all involved that this is the case. 

Thank you and I'm looking forward to hearing from you. 

All the best,

(MOWCAP Secretary-General)

Source 5 : Email from KNMC to MOW Secretariat to respond Japan's contestation

From: MOW National Committee, Republic of Korea, August 12, 2022 To: MOW Secretariat Subject: Letter in response to the e-mail in August 2 Attached: 1 (105.2KB) Letter from the Chair of National Committee of MoW, ROK.pdf, 105.2KB Dear Sir/Madam, This is a reply to your email dated August 2, received with an attached letter from the Japanese Permanent Delegation to UNESCO, in which you advised us to initiate a bilateral dialogue with a view to resolving the issues at hand. Please allow us to send this reply to your office, not directly to the Japanese delegation to whom we hope the attached letter will be transmitted, for the following reasons. We find that the Japanese claim for maintaining the contestation is not sustainable, for it lacks ‘the reasons advanced’ for contesting on other grounds as stipulated in Paragraph 8.6.5.2.1. It is unimaginable that the General Guidelines allow a Member State to examine the documentary heritage nominated by another Member State without any identif...

Source 13 : Message from MOWCAP acting SG to the nominator of #02

From : MOWCAP Acting Secretary-General, November 17, 2022  To: President of Korean Studies Institute Dear President of KSI, We wish to bring to your attention the following request from MOWCAP RSC regarding certain words in Naebang-gasa, No. 148 that may be considered to violate MOWCAP Register Process guidelines, Section K. FORMALITIES FOR SUBMITTING NOMINATIONS "11. Objectivity. Every nomination stands on its own merits. Nominations should be based on fact, and written in impartial and objective language. The use of grandiose or unprovable claims, or derogatory, propagandistic or polemical language, is counter-productive and makes assessment more difficult. Any nomination form that uses inappropriate language, denigrating or insulting individuals, groups or nations will be returned to the nominator/s by the MOWCAP Secretary-General on the advice of the RSC for amendment. Nominators should be careful to word their nominations in a neutral and objective manner." In order to ...
