Hi, im new to this forum and i am Chinese,born and raised in Australia. I remember when i went to China a couple of years ago my grandad told me of the sort of things the Japanese did in the war and i was horrified that a human being was capable of such things. Yes, his stories did provoke hatred in me towards Japanese of that time, but not Japanese of the present because i know they had no involvement and control over the events of that time. As far as i see it, the Japanese of the present are different from the japanese of the past and should not be judged and put in the same category, so the hatred from Chinese towards Japanese in the present is uncalled for.

An apology is admitting you did something wrong, so an apology from the Japanese government would mean nothing because they didn't do anything wrong. Instead of an apology the Japanese Govt. should recognised and acknowlodge that the atrocities did happen, i think that would be more appropriate. This is just my view on the whole situation and feel free to disagree, but let me tell you that none of my chinese and korean friends feel a deep hatred for the japanese.

It's all in the same boat... African-American's are afraid of the police, and the rest of Asia still showing contempt due to the crimes committed in WW2 by Japan.

I am saying the contempt in both situations holds true. It's hard to put trust into people that have committed atrocities against your own in the past. It still is a problem in most all countries today, but over time it levels off in my opinion.
