Isn’t it a bit scary to think that China and Japan may go to war, looking at the decline in their relations. I saw the news the other night and the Chinese protesters were really voicing out their opinion about Japan not owning up to their history in school textbooks. It looked frightening, that they were boycotting Japanese products and destroying anything that was linked to Japan e.g. restaurants, billboards, embassy etc. This seems to be one of the very few protests the Chinese govt will allow their people to openly express. It shows that China was truly hurt by the Japanese and what they had done to them.

I know it isn’t right to ask for an apology from a nation, because majority of the Japanese population now focuses on peace and harmony, many are young people who were not involve in the war time atrocities. I think what China want is an apology from someone, possibly the prime minister and to add history to the textbooks of students. Why would Japan try and hide this from their young generation? I think it makes them stronger if they can accept what they did…so the whole world can move on. Atm it is truly weakening the political power Japan has in the Asian region.

Me as a 4th generation chinese person, my great grandfather was from China, my grandfather from M’sia, my mother from M’sia and me in Australia, may not affect me as a Chinese person. But more of a citizen of humanity… why can’t we be honest and why can’t we just forgive each other? Why do people have to have their pride in these situations. I guess if world leaders don’t have their pride, their countrymen would think they were weak and powerless. But this purely a struggle of governments, the Chinese people have no such resentment towards the Japanese public.

I’m sure many of us Chinese have used Japanese products, have Japanese friends, love Japanese culture, it is just harsh to disregard Japan now…there must be some other peaceful way to co-exist!!
