Time Japan learned from history

Comment on "Abe adheres to abnormality" (China Daily, June 17)

The editorial hits the nail on the head by saying that "if the leaders of the country cannot squarely face up to the country's history, Japan's image as a nation in the international community will only become increasingly abnormal", notwithstanding Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's vow to transform Japan into a "normal country". Not only the Chinese people, but also people in other Asian countries neighboring Japan such as South Korea are frustrated and angered by the Abe government's continuous attempt to distort history.
