2012/06/20 21:43:29

Tokyo, June 20 (CNA) The Japanese public's impression of China has worsened over the last year, according to the results of a joint China-Japan survey released Wednesday.

Up to 84 percent of Japanese people surveyed said they had a bad impression of Chinese people, a 6 percent increase compared to a year earlier, showed the survey, which was conducted by Genron, a Japanese nonprofit organization, and the Chinese newspaper China Daily to see how each side views the other.

On the other hand, 64.5 percent of Chinese responded they had a bad impression of Japan, which was a 5.4 percent decline compared to last year's figure.

A total of 54.4 percent of Japanese pollees said China's selfish attitude toward obtaining energy and resources was the main reason they had an unfavorable opinion of China, while 44 percent cited the Diaoyutai Islands sovereignty issue.

Moreover, 34.8 percent of Japanese cited China's nontransparent military expansion as the main cause for their bad impression, compared to last year's 23.9 percent.

China's public on the other hand cited different interpretations of history as the major cause, with 78.6 percent noting past wars were the main cause for their negative impression, while 39.8 percent said Japanese government's strong stance in dealing with the Diaoyutai Islands sovereignty issue was the main cause.

When asked what was the main obstacle between the two countries developing closer ties, 69.5 percent of Japanese said it was the Diaoyutai Islands issue, with 51 percent of Chinese agreeing this was the main issue.

Taiwan, China, and Japan all claim sovereignty over the Diaoyutai Islands in East China Sea.

This year, the survey also introduced a question asking whether respondents expected conflicts to break out between the two countries over the East China Sea issue. A total of 38 percent of Japanese expected no conflicts, but 36.9 percent of Chinese thought future conflicts could occur.

The survey in Japan was conducted between April 26-May 14 among men and women above the age of 18. Genron retrieved 1,000 valid responses.

The Chinese survey retrieved a total of 1,627 valid responses from Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Shenyang and Xian.

Japan and CHINA has a long standing mistrust, we can not play politics based on this mistrust and say that CHINA is disliked by every one.
May be they are desliked by some, but its a matter of personal idea based on what one hears and understands from the media in their home country

China and Japan are enemies. China and Japan have territorial disputes.

Japan committed many crimes against the Chinese people during World War 2.

Besides Japan is part of the Japanese-Indian-America axis.

Lastly, Japan is a westernized country.

Japan hate China becos we overtake them as the number one economy powerhouse in Asia... :lol:

Japan is an American occupied country. Frankly, I don't see that much of a difference between Japan and Saudi Arabia.

LOL! Look who's talking!

Turkey is as westernized as Japan. Its Turkey that is an American occupied country. LOL

Saudi Arabia is actually ditching USA in the very near future.

Did you know the Saudis are very angry about being blamed about 9/11 and being shown in bad light in the international media for more than 10 years?

Even Prince Nayef of the Saudi royal family said basically do you think 20 youths did 9/11?

Check the Saudi Arabian export partners, China is their second largest export partner.

Wow , compared to East and South-East Asian countries I would say Indian public opinion polls show a relatively better opinion of China in India.

We didn't occupied Saudi Arabia we were invited. Big difference. And there are no American bases since Gulf War 2.

I don't think India wants to be part of this axis, they already applied for SCO membership. SCO is anti-NATO.
