The Relationship between Chinese and Japanese
by Takeo Maebashi
(Tokyo)
Chinese premier Wen Jiabao with former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe
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.
