Those anti protests thingies are held in China annually. Are they even new? Then for every few months, boycott, after that back to normal, then comes the month again, boycott, back to normal. Its like a PMS that comes every once a year. -
It's very hard for us to boycott Japanese goods as although their goods are expensive, their goods have the quality.

BEIJING: Thousands of demonstrators carrying Chinese flags and anti-Japanese banners gathered in Beijing on Saturday to protest Japan's handling of its wartime past and Tokyo's bid for a permanent seat on the UN Security Council.Originally posted by trlnlty:wtf?
no seriously whats with the new jap hate?
Organizers spread the word of the rally on Internet bulletin boards calling for up to 20,000 people to gather at the Hailong shopping centre in northern Beijing's university district.
Japan's embassy in Beijing has issued a warning to Japanese nationals living in China to avoid the protests and to take precautionary measures to insure personal safety.
"Please behave cautiously and stay away from anti-Japanese rallies or protest if you witness one," the embassy said, urging nationals to be "careful not to be involved in unnecessary trouble."
Japan ignited a new row with China on Tuesday by authorizing for school use a nationalist-written history textbook that Beijing says glosses over Japanese wartime atrocities.
China's foreign ministry summoned Japan's envoy to Beijing to express its "indignation" at the approval of the textbook, and a retail association called a boycott of a series of Japanese products.
But Japan has hit back at China, saying Beijing was whipping up anti-Japanese sentiment.
The Asian neighbours have increasingly been at loggerheads over memories of Japan's bloody World War II occupation of China and a dispute over scarce energy resources.
Smaller rallies erupted throughout China this month protesting against Japan's efforts to secure a permanent UN Security Council seat, with demonstrators smashing windows of Japanese businesses and calling for a boycott of Japanese goods.
The foreign ministry reported April 1 that the number of Japanese people living in China shot up by 28.5 percent year-on-year, with Shanghai now having the third biggest Japanese expatriate population following New York and Los Angeles.
Bilateral trade has been skyrocketing in recent years with China overtaking the United States as Japan's top commercial partner in 2004 as Japanese firms eye China's vast labour pool and emerging consumer market. - AFP -
from what i see lah. it is becos the two sides dunno how to yi de fu ren. Too much nationalistic pride. Otherwise they would have been living peacefully already.

Then I suggest we stop buying Corollas and Civics and switch to VWs and Renaults.

there's also the island row between south korea and japan.
-
but seriously, if they denied that they invaded south east asia, should we get angry? or should we just sit back and let the politicians do the work?
I just discovered a generation gap between me and my parents. i find that ww2 was a very far away and distant event. I always believed in leting bygones be bygones. But to my parents, the fact that the japs denied that the rape of nanking happened, it shows that it is not remorsefeul and hence, we should not readily forget about it so easily.
To many PRC people in china , they have a similar kind of sentiment. They feel that they should not forgive or forget. But itsn't such general hatred and nationalistic pride the cause of wars in the past centuries the first place?
Should we let sleeping dogs lie? or should we face the problem head to head?
I don't want to hate them, nor do i want to fully embrace them either. If given the chance i just want everybody to put down their difference peacefully. Rather kind of naive thought here though.
