The conference was held at the invitation of Rash Behari Bose who was instrumental in persuading the Japanese authorities to stand by the Indian nationalists and ultimately to support actively the Indian freedom struggle abroad. Bose was also elected the leader of the Indian movement in South East Asia during this conference. However, the Tokyo conference failed to reach any definitive decisions due to the differences between various regional factions, and also because of differences both with Rash Behari especially given his long connection with Japan and the current position of Japan as the occupying power in South east Asia, and also because many were wary of vested Japanese interests. ref name Fay 1993 91 The Tokyo conference however, did agree on the decision to meet again in Bangkok to establish an all unifying IIL at a future date. ref name Fay 1993 91 Rash Behari arrived in Singapore in April with the returning Indian delegation.
