Senkaku/Diaoyu/Tiaoyutai/Pinnacle Islands dispute
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senkaku_Islands_dispute this actually already been debated since end of WW2. the idea being that japan capture the island at WW2. when japan lose they must give back land that they capture to china. the question weather this island is part of agreement? it was bit calm down until recent news where japan gov decide to buy the island http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news...-1226465696624 of course china would not let this happend so they send the patrol. and then japan, then taiwan. well so far the sea is calm. the ground on other hand... ... Chinese people destroying japan stuff in china. apparently it spreading to 80 city or so more pic http://imgur.com/a/Y7oIp/all

Geez.......why is it that not even the current generation can get past conflicts from over 6 decades ago? I thought young people in China were progressive! I mean, Israel and Germany don't have any problems now, and the U.S. and Russia aren't nearly as bad as this..........

http://www.pbs.org/frontlineworld/ro...and_china.html This program was produced after the controversy over the introduction of new history textbooks in Japan in 2005. The level of tension today is substantially worse, largely abetted and exacerbated by political forces in both countries. http://rendezvous.blogs.nytimes.com/...sland-dispute/ The recent discussion about the Senkakus in the News Stories thread begins around here if you're interested: http://forums.animesuki.com/showthread.php?p=4315546

I have yet to wait after midnight to watch this PBS video (rush hours), but it should be interesting. About that article on the NY Times, one of the comments posted in response was quite interesting:

On the other side of the coin, this is an anime forum, given where anime comes from, I don't really think we'll find much voices sympathetic to China here (I could be wrong) |

My ethnicity is Chinese. I compare the raging rioters breaking anything loosely connected to Japan to raging kids who would actually throw their PC out of the window because they lost in a game, with the inability to question themselves and thus blame whatever happened on something unrelated merely in a similar spectrum. I don't mean to generalize China but come on, stop destroying yourself.
Too late... the only case I heard of was a boy trampled over by the mob but I am sure there are plenty more casualties. Heavily injured if not dead. This is true but sadly it is not perceived as such by most people. The way news do their reports also don't help the viewpoint of ignorant people.

Nah China will win. Have you seen the crap militaries we have here? Even if you are talking about a modern military, the most advanced one can easily be subverted to China's cause - it isn't called a little RED dot for no apparent reason. [/sarcasm] Quote:
I am supposed to be considered ethnic Chinese (/w diluted Malay blood), but I don't mind those insults being thrown because due to the fact that it is those dungballs that look like us doing all these crap; more often than not gently talking to those "xenophobics" and "racists" over here and telling him that you are a local on his/her side would result in an apology.

I believe there's an underlying cultural problem. We get satellite TV over here from China and by far the two most popular and numerous types of programs are either set in the Warring states-Three kingdoms period, romanticising imperialism and a time when China was considered strong and at it's influential/cultural peak, or the whole WWII era with heroic resistance fighters bravely fighting the Japanese war machine with all the stereotypes you can think of. I do think that people are heavily influenced by the society and values which surround them, and patriotism and nationalism go hand in hand. Reason is cute and all but is surprisingly rare and, unfortunately, by definition the less vocal voice.
Saintess I'm curious, if asked would you refer to yourself as a Chinese or Singaporean? Judging from the similar protests in America, integration isn't something that happens quickly or easily however many generations have passed. How far does it go?

And like the general sentiment of HK, TW, IDN, PH and MY Chinese, we don't exactly like mainlanders because they bring their culture of hardcore darwinism here and expect us to follow as "China is a whole lot fucking bigger than your little speck on Earth". And who would I refer myself as? I'll just quote Bruce Lee when asked if he sees himself as a Chinese or American : Quote:
