  Gando - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gando, Jiandao, and Kantō are the Korean, Mandarin (Chinese), and Japanese pronunciations of a name (間島) that refers to parts of Manchuria populated by Koreans.
Despite the agreement, Koreans in Gando continued to be a source of friction between the Chinese and Japanese governments.
After liberation of Korea in 1945, many Koreans believed that Gando should be given to Korean rule, but the military control by United States of America in the south and Union of Soviet Socialist Republics in the north hindered any unified Korean claim to the territory.

 USAID Sierra Leone/Transition Initiatives/News: Women's Coops Use Mining to Finance Agriculture and Trade   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Gando’s challenge as a community leader was to help the women in her chiefdom reorganize after the war, and learn how to survive economically in the Tongo Fields environment.
The talks gave Gando the idea of regrouping the members of her cooperative around both mining and agriculture—profits from mining activities would go toward promoting women’s business endeavors, as well as toward inputs and labor to rehabilitate mined-out areas that the women felt were unsafe within the town.
Says Gando, “Now we are earning more, and we are able to give out micro-loans to our members for their business endeavors.” From her own earnings, Gando says that at home she can now help her husband pay the school fees for their children, and can buy school supplies such as books and uniforms.

 Asia Times - News and analysis from Korea; North and South
The territory of Gando, literally translated as "middle island", an area between two rivers, is imprecise but is thought to include almost 43,000 square kilometers of Chinese territory, immediately north of present day North Korea, and home to almost a million ethnic Koreans.
Nonetheless, the Gando issue could well be used as a bargaining tool to persuade the Chinese to back off of Koguryo.
To this end, 18th century cartographic evidence that indicates Gando as Korean territory, like that put forward by Professor Kim Woo-jun of Yonsei University in Seoul, is very useful.
