Japanese friends

We Chinese will never forget what the Japanese done to us during WWII. On the other hand we will not forget those who had help the Chinese to fight against the enemy.

We were taught in school not to hate the Japanese, but to remember the history. Japanese were taught of the Mongol invasion at school, so what is wrong for Chinese youth being taught of the Japanese invasion ? But the difference is, Chinese are also taught to distinguish between the goods and bads. We always said the war crime is not done by ordinary Japanese, but by Japanese warlord and imperialist.

There are stories of the Japanese fight side by side with Chinese, stories of Japanese solder hand over truck load weapon to Chinese and committed suicide, stories of Japanese technician died when testing weapon in 8th Army arsenal....These people are being ignored in Japan but they are real heroes.

We would also not forget those helped normalizing and developing post war Sino-Japanese relationship, and those still fighting lonely war in Japan to defend the truth and justice of Japanese war crime.

Chinese are great people, and hate is not a Chinese character. Don't let our Japanese friend down.
