Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
US, Japan trust each other but both wary of
China: poll
Japan doesn’t seem to matter so much to
Americans. It did a lot seven decades ago when Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and
also in the 1980s and early 1990s when Japanese products fiercely competed and
took market shares in the main land. However, as much stronger and greater
power threatens the peace in the Pacific and influences the world economy, Japan
seems to be seen as a partner rather than a competitor or aggressor than
before.
According to an opinion poll conducted to 1,000
people from each country, no more than 30 percent of the Americans said they
knew of Japan’s prime minister, who is scheduled to address a joint session of
the US Congress.
How Japanese do people view America then,
especially about the atomic bombing to Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Enjoy reading
and learning how the people of these two countries think each other 70 years
after the war.
