I have an image of Chinese as having a bad attitude. This may be a wrong assumption, but most Japanese people have this bad image. I think there are historical and political problems at the base of this thing.

And it's very likely that Chinese people also have a bad image of Japanese. Perhaps a major cause is the visiting to Yasukuni Shrine by Japanese politicians.

These are politically-touchy issues. But we should find solutions for both Japan and China.

China Japan relations
by: Gary Wolff

Takeo, I'm afraid you're right.

It seems that Japanese are suffering poor relations with a number of its neighbors due to history.

It's so sad that so many Japanese people today are still paying the price for bad things their ancestors did over 60 yrs. ago.

I agree with you that we should try to find some solutions, not only for China, but for Japan's other Asian neighbors as well.

Thanks for your nice story...
