Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
'Constructive
ideas' on thorny issues needed.
How would you read
this article? It could be an inviting message from China to Japan since China
Daily is a semi-government newspaper website published online in English.
In this article,
it even quotes a remark by a retired Japanese general of the self defense force
suggesting that even government officials can be more flexible than they are at
meetings for ministers and political figures at the China-Japan Friendship
Association to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the China-Japan Peace and Friendship
Treaty in Beijing on October 22nd.
Sending patrolling
ships to the disputed seas is surely one thing to demonstrate its position on
the critical agenda but posting an article like this could suggest that they
also wish to seek a way to resolve the issue.
Why doesn’t Japanese
government send or suggest some sign to respond to a message like this?
Enjoy reading and
learning how a bilateral issue is reported from one side to the other.
