History

Founded on October 8, 1946, the Journal São Paulo Shimbun is a vehicle of communication directed towards the Japanese-Brazilian community. Businessman Mituto Mizumoto observed the need that Japanese immigrants had for their own newspaper which would publish facts about Brazil and Japan. The São Paulo Shimbun was authorized to start publishing on September 6, 1946. On October 12 of the same year the first edition was published and, since then, it continues to be the one and only journal of news about the Brazilian nikkei community.[5]
