Apr 1 2013: Your opinion is the same as the Japanese mainstream thinking. I was very much relieved.
Japanese have two conflicting feelings against Chinese. One is the people of culture, while the great powers of the eternal history with vast land. The other is the people lacking of morality in dictatorial developing country. I guess it is not true either.
Also for the Mainland Chinese, should have conflicting ideas (fear and contempt) against the Japanese.
From trying to measure the other in own value, these contradictions will come out.
Political form is different, it is very similar to Japanese and Chinese (Han) in each individual life and value, comparing with Western.
We are eating rice with chopsticks, drinking tea, can also communicate with each other in Chinese character. We can also talk a lot about 柯南, 孫悟空、三国志演義 and 村上春樹 at same perspective. However, we have many different parts, it should recognize them each other.
Without looking at the figure of truth, it is stupid enough to believe that only the government and media’s propaganda and hate them.
I think that Internet is powerful tool to communicate with each other. On the other hand, it is also the tool of brainwashing by the authorities. In the past, Dictators are ruled with fear and control of information. We should take care of the person-to-person exchanges.

And that's all there is to it!
Nov 4 2012: Japanese education lose sight of the original purpose, are killing children's creativity. As usual, we have to learn for the written test.
Adults who received such education is the core of society, creative industries are no longer born. The result is a slump of major electronics manufacturers.
