...actually yesterday. Japan doesn't have the best relationship when it comes to China and Korea, Japan's own fault IMO. BUT while waiting for a table at a restaurant (Waiting outside) a Japanese lady on her bicycle headed right at handed me a flyer and was gone before I could even read it. It's written in very poor English, about Koreans and Chinese causing problems in Japan. Here it is, just so I don't have to type it:
I read it, had my friend hold it so I could take a picture, then put it in my bag. Lost it somewhere along the way. Wanted to show it to my wife and get her opinion on it. There was more written on the other side about the honor of Japan.
I just don't get where all this hate comes from...well, I do understand...the uneducated are quite happy remaining uneducated. |

| Yup, just me. Probably in case the Japanese friends I was with were not Japanese. |

There is a push among oral historians to collect the information they can from Korean "Comfort Women" before that generation passes away into the pages of history where they can be denied safely. I expect that this pamphlet was a reaction to the rising awareness across the world, especially in the USA, of the shameful chapter of Japan's history. |

That's what I was thinking as well, and it also explains why it was printed in English and handed to Jason. It's been designed for Westerners. |
