I read all the statements here but yet understand both filipino and Japanese culture as well. Musashi was a great sword master and a legend in Japan so it is seen as a great honor to bring the Musashi back in the eyes of the Japanese but yet the great battleship will give back what she has taken to the filipinos if it is raised from her watery grave. Ive been to the Phils before and heard all the stories about gold hidden and all the folklore

A few things dont make sense here 1.This is a War grave to many Japanese sailors.
2.The people Philipines probably wont want to see a Japanese battle ship as a tourist attraction 3. This might remind them of the terrible Battan death march

This is a totally impossible task. what are those Swiss smoking>? I am sure by the time it
hit the bottom, it was totally destroyed. Why would the Filipino people want to see such a project and be constantly reminded as to the atrocities committed by the Japanese during their occupation of the Philippines. Come on…lets get serious!

Is it even possible? The Musashi weighed at 72 thousand tons, wouldent it be better to just built a Yamato battleship as a museum?

I really dont think they should go through with this, because isnt it a war grave to over 1,000 IJN men? and if they do go ahead with this scheme, i certainly dont think they should make it a tourist attraction! It should either be left where it is as a reminder of the war. or a memorial, to the brave men who died on her.
