Opmerkingen

Issued by Japanese-administered prisoner of war camp canteens in Taiwan during the Pacific War, these scrip tickets were part of a controlled internal economy that prevented Allied prisoners from accumulating Japanese military currency. The Geneva Convention technically required that POWs be paid for labor; this scrip was the mechanism used to nominally comply while keeping any purchasing power entirely within the camp system — redeemable only at the canteen, worthless outside the wire.

Taiwan-produced POW scrip as a category is poorly documented. Camp records were largely destroyed in August 1945, and surviving tickets were rarely retained by repatriates.
