This must have been the most treasured item during the Japanese Occupation. Without it, you might have to die.
Troops of the Japanese Imperial Army would conduct spot-checks. The people had no way of knowing whether they would be given security clearance. If they were cleared, they would get this rectangular mark.
If it had been a triangular mark, they would be taken away and killed.

Some had the mark printed on their clothes. The printed area would then be cut and carried around wherever they went.
Others had their arms or legs marked.
Some people would go for months without bathing for fear that the marks would be washed away.
