Japan's former diplomats in this region should be under the "command and supervision" of the Minister of Greater East Asia when dealing with the above affairs. Article 19 of the Official System of Greater East Asia stipulates that "Greater East Asia should cooperate with Lu Haijun to handle administrative affairs related to the occupied territory of Greater East Asia". The establishment of Greater East Asia Province cancelled the normal diplomatic relations between Japan and the occupied country, and regarded the occupied area as an administrative region of Japan.
