Japan’s statement was made to head off the emergence of overt anti-Japanese sentiment in Taiwan and for the personal safety of Japanese nationals and tourists in Taiwan.
Ho Szu-shen (何思慎), a Japanese professor at Fu Jen Catholic University.
He was referring to a statement made by Japan’s Foreign Minister Koichiro Gemba through its de facto embassy that called for calm in dealing with “pending issues” and rational communication and urged that bilateral ties not be affected by “isolated problems.”
Ho is must be on some very strong painkillers to come to that conclusion. The overwhelming majority of Taiwanese couldn’t give a XXXX for President Ma’s game of ‘divert attention from problems at home by fabricating a beef with Japan’ much less get bent out of shape enough to take it out on Japanese tourists … lol
