    Forgive & Forget

    Most of you know the relationship between the Brits & Germans.....WE WON .....They LOST ....The French & Italians ......but it's all in a good humoured way, the battlefield is now on the football field. (Well done SPAIN )....

    ....But how do Filipina's think about the Japs? Forgive & forget? Hope the burn in the darkest depths of Hell?

    It all boils down on the gravity of one’s experience. My great grandparent’s family and relatives had a few share of such.

    There are numerous sympathizers and supporters for the justice struggle of Filipina elders who suffered from systematic sexual assault. Some of them died while waiting for justice while others are still fighting for their rights with high hopes. They are now mostly in old age…and dying…
    Life is a matter of perspective. Either you complain because roses have thorns or you rejoice because thorns have roses. It all depends on how you look at it...

    Such a sad thought really. Some of them didnt get the justice they deserved. I am still a bit weary with japanese. I know it was past...and i live in the future. I'll try to keep an open mind about it.

    well, before, every time a Filipino parents see a Japanese men, they will tell their daughter to hide, but nowadays they will ask their daughter to get dress and be presentable coz Japanese are there...and they even allow their daughter to go to Japan and be a Japayuki...

    nah we didnt really look into compensation my grandmother is really old now and we just want her to have a happy life we do not want to stress her with talks of compensation, we feel that a simple apology will do. i have heard of stories of what they did to my grandma and it is not pleasant, what hurts most is they dont even show remorse for what they have done.
