Politics politics....

What's a Taiwanese politician doing at the Yasukuni Shrine? The controversial shrine that honours the war dead of the Japanese. The shrine that Prime minister Koizumi visits every year despite the protests it gets from its neighbours. The only reason I can think of is that the Taiwanese want to disturb the Mainland Chinese government.

Well in Chengdu, China. Protests against Japan are taking place. This is widely reported in the Japanese press. The Chinese are accusing the Japanese for not admitting to the history, and as Chinese they have the right to vent their frustrations and to pressure the Japanese. The Japanese TV then said that the Chinese were unhappy about the incident of Nanking and their woman were used as sex objects and the fact that the Japanese are trying to hide them.And guess what was the next scene that i saw? They then went to explain a bit of the events in detail. Well, think about it, maybe Japan has opened up to their past and probably are not as in a denial mode as I think they are.... There are quite a lot of Chinese in Japan. I see them in schools, see them operating restaurants. They should be a lot of Japanese businessmen and students in China, hope they can do something about this.

Actually most Japanese people would just look at news about what's happening and say... wah these Chinese very free and energetic hor...Japanese kids study like hell, Japanese men work like hell, Japanese women do everything.... So most of them don't have the energy for such stuff...
