I am Yu Ri So, and I am proud to introduce myself to be one of the people of the Republic of Korea and a student of the Third Grade of High School Attached to College of Education, Chung-Ang University.

  I am writing to you as I have important suggestions to make in regards to your site in the post titled the “India and Russia begin Indra-2014 naval exercise in Sea of Japan "
(http://www.naval-technology.com/news/news-india-and-russia-begin-indra-2014-naval-exercise-in-sea-of-japan-4320266)

I found out that the article have wrongly named “East Sea” as the “Sea of Japan.” 

The name of the sea between the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese archipelago, currently named as the “Sea of Japan” in your company’s article, should be corrected to the “East Sea.” because when there is a sea between two countries, country on the western side should decide its name following international customs.

I sincerely ask for your company to seriously consider the issue of changing “Sea Of Japan” to the “East Sea”. Please visit the website (http://dokdo.mofat.go.kr) for more specific information on geographical designations.   

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,
Yu Ri So
