India needs to quit planet earth and migrate to pluto, they can finally be a supa powa there.

Well ... tough call but history is history what happened in past does not mean the present should be effected unless people want to live in the past

Japan may stop financial contributions to UNESCO: Suga
Oct. 13, 2015 - 03:00PM JST

TOKYO — Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said Monday the Japanese government will consider stopping financial contributions to UNESCO or reducing the amount, given the U.N. body’s decision to add Chinese documents on the Nanjing Massacre to the “Memory of the World” program.

The top Japanese government spokesman made the remarks on a TV program.

UNESCO’s decision on Saturday drew an immediate protest from the Japanese government questioning whether the U.N. body was “neutral and fair” in registering them.

Beijing’s dossier on the widespread killings of Chinese citizens and soldiers following the 1937 capture of Nanjing by the Japanese military is among dozens of new additions of documentary items, also including two sets of archives from Japan.

The Japanese government lodged a protest Saturday with the Chinese Foreign Ministry via the Japanese Embassy in Beijing, saying China “should not unnecessarily use the arena of UNESCO for a political purpose,” according to Japanese officials.

The “Documents of the Nanjing Massacre” consists of court documents from the International Military Tribunal for the Far East that convicted several Japanese as war criminals and a Chinese military tribunal, among others. They also include photos of the killings said to have been taken by the Imperial Japanese Army and film footage taken by an American missionary.

Japan is irrelevant in the world.

Japanese power and influence is rapidly waning as Chinese power and influence grows.

Unimpressive from Japan. The thing is that the nanking massacre is no propaganda and did happen and people were convicted and its part of Japans history. Yes it's a horror part but its not something to forget but to learn from and to be condemned... This should not hold any say in the current present world and should not effect any regional co operation between China and Japan or any warmth in the relations... The past is something to learn from so that the positives are extracted and the negatives are not repeated.

Japan should not make this an issue and allow it to go by. The more it makes an issue the more its own credibility will be effected.

I have told to the japanese member many times. The more the japanese fight against China, the more pressures we will burden on them.

The Japnese trick simle in front, shoot in the back just don't work here in China.

What would China's reaction be if UNESCO decides to preserve unflattering information about China, like the Great Famine, for example ?

China submitted to UNESCO docs related to the Nanjing Massacre.

Documents of Nanjing Massacre | United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization

However, there is no rule specifically states that submissions are restricted to governments.

How to submit a nomination for inscription? | United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization

So what would China's reaction be if Japan retaliate by submitting that The Great Famine be recorded ?

What a very poignant point.

I have told to the japanese member many times. The more the japanese fight against China, the more pressures we will burden on them.

The Japnese trick simle in front, shoot in the back just don't work here in China.

"Smile in front shoot in the back?"

Um, no. We don't smile in front and shoot you. Seriously WTF is wrong with you?

You are just disgusting and trolling and making character assassination posts!

Please stop generalizing and acting in defamation, Chinese buddy.

Yes, that trick won't work to China, save it to their puppeteers.
Japanese are known to play double-faced trick in China.

Time will prove.
Maybe we should be a little sympathetic to them for their shrinking economy and nuclear disasters
even they are not sympathetic to war victims except their own victims in Hiroshima.

UNESCO did some good work to our monuments in Egypt , it's bad to see that happening.

Fair and unbiased doesn't equal to neutral.So there is no neutral and fair.

Neutral? WWII is not a football game, its the basis on which UN was established. Its absurd to demand neutrality of events that was transpired during WWII.

Japan is trying to blackmail UNESCO to conform to its hidden agenda in respect of ww2 atrocities

Bingo!

The Civil Rights movement and the Great Depression are more deserve to be in it. LOL

Why not. If we're going to put in all the bad incidents in history, then, why bias on one? Mark every single negative event in history that lead to the deaths of thousands of thousands. Its only fair.
