<Summary>
The Nanking Massacre is the event that Chinese military and general citizen were killed when the Japanese military occupied a Chinese metropolitan Nanking city in 1937 in the Sino-Japanese war early stage. UNESCO has decided to register “the Nanking Massacre ” with “memory legacy”. Worldwide, the Nanjing Massacre is fact. But Japan denies fact of its Nanjing Massacre. Japan is refusing for a memory legacy to authorize that by UNESCO. On the other hand China is insisting that this is fact. This will be the chance to settle Chinese history point and political issue with Japan. We won’t be supposed to forget history for the future now and we have to learn from history.
<Opinion>
The problem is very nervous. Therefore it can’t be settled easily. But it has to be confronted with history so that we don’t make the same mistake. There is sometimes a case that an inconvenient event isn’t put on a textbook of history for itself in Japan. Therefore some people don’t know the major events which is sensibly learned about in the world. “The Nanjing Massacre” which is this topic is the example. The reason that such event doesn’t appear on a textbook depends on policy. We can’t turn the policy easy. But it’s necessary to know some history facts. So I think that we have to gather information for it actively by an individual and try to know the truth.
