March 8, 2015，a NHK journalist asked Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi on the Press, saying :” China is using the history issue as a tool to denigrate Japan's contribution to international peace over many years “, it took me a while to realize the meaning of Japanese journalist’s question since it is hard to find the Japanese peace contribution , what has Japan done to world peace? Japan is a economic giant but a political dwarf, whose fate is totally mastered in the US’s hands, for such a country, what it can do to contribute world peace?
In fact, the peace contribution from Japanese mouth came out its former PM, Fukuda Takeo, who pledged that Japan, a country committed to peace, would never become a military power and that Japan would build up a relationship of mutual confidence and trust with Southeast Asian countries at August, 1977.which later became Fukuda Doctrine, and serves as the foundation of Japan's current and future diplomacy.
From the Japanese point of view, the peace contribution Japan made is that it has not established an nominal army in the last 70 years, has not threat neighboring countries, the world peace is kept because Japan did not conducted badly. That is its contribution?
It is a peace contribution if aggressive Japan can abide by its “peace constitution”, however, Japanese does not want to do, and they want to reverse the peace constitution. Today’s Japan, lead by Abe, is trying to break peace constitution. It has been long since the ww2 that Japan tried to rebuild and expand its military. Before the Abe became the Japanese lead, they upgraded “Japan defense Agency” to “Japan defense department” though Japan does not have an nominal army. Now, as many pdf members says, it has the No1 navy in Asia, and has a large storage of nuclear material which can make thousands of nuclear bombs, and two aircraft carrier is under construction. So called Fukuda Doctrine is only a cover.
There is a stone table standing in the front of the building of Japanese defense Agency, carved with the note “: no world peace till north four islands returning!”, it is well know that the four islands was occupied by Former Soviet at the end of WW2，concerted by the agreements made among the winners of WW2, it is a problem between Russian and Japan rather than a problem between Japan and the world, it should hate Russian, but why does the stone says that the there is no world peace? Obviously, it tells Japan's dissatisfaction with the world order after ww2, it also suggests that Japan cannot introspect what it has done in ww2. Japan is good at making empty saying to cover its predatory ambitions. Let alone contribute to world peace.
It is reasonable China criticizes Japan for its historical view, for its reverse from peace constitution, but the Japanese regard Chinese remarks as denigration Japanese think it is their contribution to the world peace that Japan did not appear as a military power, namely the world would not be in peace if Japan develop its military.
The present Japan is going back to Militarism step by step, history will not repeat, but fate will repeat, poor Japanese.
