Yesterday, New York Times put out an editoral titled, Shinzo Abe's Asian Challenge. This article asks the new Japanese Prime Minister to go beyond Koizumi and Yasukuni, and "The obvious place to start is by rebuilding Japan’s badly damaged relations with China."
The article also points out that the greatest error of the Koizumi administration is to visit Yasukuni Shrine, which plays into the hands of China. To crictize the mistakes,
"The first step should be declaring that he will not continue Mr. Koizumi’s provocative practice of visiting the Yasukuni Shrine, where the spirits of convicted war criminals are honored."
