I participate in some other Forum's and this past week a very touchy subject was raised in regards to the legitimacy of some Kohaku promotions. Does anyone believe as I do that High Ranking Promotions (6th Dan and above) should be the most scrutinized of all Judo Promotions due to their significance.
Do people feel that it is ethical to drastically reduce the Time in Grade, as well as other requirements needed to achieve these Dan Ranks without Legitimate reason or explanation. And the fact that many of these individuals wear such Ranks but do not have the ability or knowledge to even posses them.
