Anti-Japan protest, One year later

Last April, anti-Japan protest in China spread more quickly than SARS, thanks largely to Internet BBS, and shot text message on mobile phones. In a week and two, tens of thousands in more than 10 cities take the issue to the streets, from Beijing, Shanghai to Xi’an, Chengdu, and some place like Shenzhen, where more foreign invested companies stay, witnesses a largest ever anti-Japan demonstration.

What went wrong? How to heal the wound? A Chinese writer-Liu Ning, speaking fluent Japanese, offers his answer in a book called摈弃中日友好的乡愁 (Go beyond Sino-Japan’s Friendship Mentality), is now circulating in Internet.
