> The third link is also from a heavily biased source. The link referred to: https://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/article/article.aspx?aid=2971580 https://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/article/article.as... Wow, "biased source", what a word! I think aside from the universal "China is bad" theme, the other theme closely related in Asian political discussion in HN, is that "Japan already did her part for their WWII and imperialism war crimes"... Unfortunately, no. Japan has never addressed the issue with any nations that they invaded in WWII. Literally, each and every suffered from Japanese imperialism invasion still have deep and broad hostility towards Japan whenever the topic start to divert to WWII and the era. I have no idea was it Japan government intentionally doing this inadequate job, or are they simply incompetent on this matter. But to call this website "heavily biased"... Bravo, this is borderline racism towards the people living in the nations suffered from Japanese invasions.

  Yeah, and you wonder why paying money to the descendent people raped/killed/mutilated/{and many other horrendous anti-human barbarism brutality} [0] is not enough to get peace. Turns out, people are not stupid. If the wrongdoers are not sincere, money never suffices. For example, you'll need a court to uphold an apology [1], then what is the substance of the apology anyway?
