The following is the continuation of the previous chapter.
I want China to compensate.
Nowadays, I do not see and hear such hardships of withdrawing.
It is fading, is not it?
Although there is the talk of post-war reparation, I think that compensation is unnecessary.
This was previously pointed out by Professor Watanabe Shoichi who passed away, but I think so too.
It is not from affection, etc. that they judged that compensation is not needed.
It is because the Japanese left the significant funds and assets which are by many times the national budget on the continent of China.
Even for our family, the company was looted, savings and deposits, until many assets to be stripped of all we have, it was taken thoroughly until we became empty pockets even during the withdrawal.
When arriving in Japan, our family was awarded 1000 yen by the Japanese government.
It is 5 thousand yen for 5 family members and 50 thousand yen for the current price.
What we left in China is now worth 500 million yen even if we estimate it less, but about 1 billion yen if we count it a lot.
This was taken over by China, which is about to say that we would sooner return it.
Professor Watanabe knew these circumstances well.
So, he penetrated through the position that Japan has no need to apologize to China for a lifetime.
From a person who knows the actual situation, it is a story that China appreciates Japan, cannot demand an apology from Japan, ask for compensation, etc.
If seeing from the person who knows the actual state, China should appreciate to Japan.
It is a story that China could not request an apology from Japan or ask for compensation.
And though such awareness was widely shared out Diet members until around the Showa 40s, it gradually faded, and he was grieving that postwar reparation was cast, apology resolution was being made.
When I hear such a story, I realize that education is critical.
This draft continues.
