Video of Japanese at the Glendale , California
日本视频在Glendale，加利福尼亚慰安妇雕像
The lady giving the talk wearing the black and white striped shirt is Phyllis Kim. Phyllis works at the Korean American Forum of California. (KAFC.)
穿黑色和白色条纹衬衫讲话的这位女士是Phyllis Kim。Phyllis在 KAFC(在加利福尼亚韩国系美国人协会)上班。
KAFC exists only to create problems for Japanese in the United States
KAFC存在只是为了在美国创造对日本的问题。
Chinese are the mostly unseen hand operating the Korean puppets. As we investigate, we find Chinese footprints everywhere, including that Global Alliance (Chinese) filed an amicus curiae in the lawsuit filed by Dr. Mera against the local government. The purpose of the lawsuit was to keep this statue and the hatred it brings out of Glendale
中国人是主要的操作韩国傀儡的看不见的手。当我们研究，我们发现中国的足迹无处不在，包括Mera博士对本地政府提起诉讼的时候全球联盟（中国）派了“法庭之友(于特殊案件中,为法院提供中立建议之人)”。该诉讼的目的是将把这座雕像和仇恨从Glendale去掉。诉讼没有成功。
My apologies for the low quality of the video. I made it with an old camera phone and I had a heavier DSLR over my shoulder. Unfortunately I broke my good video camera in Afghanistan
我为视频的质量低而道歉。我用的是一个老的照相机和我在我的肩膀上有一个较重的数码单反相机。不幸的是，我在阿富汗打破了我的很好摄像机，但我并没替换它。从这段视频的低质量来判断，是时候来替换它了。

"When Modi met Netaji's 99-year-old aide in Japan
“当莫迪会见内达吉99岁的助手在日本的时候”
Again, this 2014 piece goes against the narrative that we are taught that all of Asia hates Japan. The narrative is just not true. From my travels to about 19 Asian countries (currently in Myanmar ), it seems that most of Asia respects and likes Japan . This article was written by someone I do not know:
再次，这个2014年的文章违背了叙述——我们已经知道的，所有亚洲国家都讨厌日本这样的叙述。叙述是不正确的。由于我的旅行在亚洲19个国家（目前在缅甸），看来，大多数亚洲国家尊重和喜欢日本。这篇文章是一个我不认识的人写的：
===
"The meeting was rare and poignant - an Indian prime minister" kneeling down to greet a 99-year-old Japanese associate of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, in Tokyo .
“这次会见是罕见的和尖锐的 - 印度总理在东京跪下来迎接一位99岁的内达吉 钱德拉•鲍斯 的日本人朋友。
"In a photos released on Tuesday, Narendra Modi was seen peering into the eyes of Saichiro Misumi and then warmly clasping his hands.
“在照片上星期二公布，Narendra莫迪被三角佐一郎 的眼睛凝视然后热忱紧紧握住他的手。
""Poignant moment! PMOIndia reaches out to Netaji's oldest living associate in Japan the 99 year old Saichiro Misumi," said a tweet by Ministry of External Affairs Ministry spokesman Syed Akabaruddin.
“痛苦的时刻！印度总理伸手向内达吉现存的最大年纪的日本人朋友——99岁的三角佐一郎，”外交部部长的发言人Syed Akabaruddin说。
"Earlier in the day, Modi at a function in the Japan capital, spoke about Misumi, saying there was a man in Japan who still vividly remembered all details about Netaji.
“在那天的早些时候，莫迪在日本首都参加宴会的时候，提到了三角，说在日本他是一个仍然生动的记着所有关于内达吉所有细节的人。
"This was Modi's second public tryst with an old comrade of Netaji.
“这是莫迪的第二次和内达吉老朋友的公开会见。
"On May 8, during the Lok Sabha election campaign, Colonel Nizamuddin, a 114-year-old former INA officer, shared the stage with Modi at a rally in Varanasi . Modi had touched the war veteran's feet.
“五月八日，人民院选举，在Nizamuddin上校，一名114岁的前印度国民军将军，在瓦拉纳西的集会上与莫迪共同上了舞台。莫迪触摸了战争老兵的脚。
"Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose was the founder of the Indian National Army (INA) that fought the British with help from the Japanese in India during the Second World War.
“内达吉钱德拉•鲍斯 是印度国民军的创始人（INA），二战期间在印度接受日军帮助与英军战斗。
"He was believed to have been killed in a plane crash in Formosa (now Taiwan ). The region was under Japanese occupation at the time of crash. The ashes were taken to Tokyo and are kept at Renkoji Temple
“曾经有人信他在台湾的飞机事故时被杀了。那个事故发生的时候该地区是日军占领下。骨灰被送往东京和保存在东京的莲光寺。”

"Large crowds welcome Japan 's emperor and empress to Palau
“许多人群欢迎，为了追悼战争牺牲者访问帕劳群岛的日本天皇皇后”
There is a common thought that all of Asia hates Japan
有一种普遍的认为全亚洲国家讨厌日本。这是错误的。我曾经认为同样的，但现在我已经在亚洲19个国家花了很多年，我的意见成为了有现实基础的意见。
The problems come from only four countries:
问题出来来自只四个国家：
1) China
1）中国
2) North Korea
2）朝鲜
3) South Korea
3）韩国
4) Japan
4）日本
As example, here in Thailand Nepal and close to a year in India Indonesia Philippines Asia , like Japanese. People in my hometown in Florida
例如，在我在的泰国，泰国人对日本巨大的尊敬和爱戴。我在尼泊尔待了大约一年，在印度待了几乎一年。他们也尊重日本。印度尼西亚有良好的关系。菲律宾也是好的。问题来自于四个国家上述。即使是阿富汗人，在穿过亚洲的路上，喜欢日本人。我家乡佛罗里达州的人喜欢日本人。
One problem is that Japan Japan 's borders are open, and Japan has a vibrant press and open internet. But the language obstacle is enormous.
一个问题是，日本实际上是隔绝的世界。当然，你们可以来往。日本有自由旅行和日本的边界是开放的，和日本有一个充满活力的报纸和开放的互网络。但是语言障碍是巨大的。
Few Japanese speak English, and few foreigners speak Japanese. So we have this wall. One of the most educated and informed populations on earth is basically sealed off by language right in front of us. The entire world could benefit if that wall was not there.
很少有日本人说英语，和不多外国人说日语。所以我们有这个墙。地球上最受教育和知情的人群基本上被我们面前的语言权封闭。如果那个墙没有的话全世界都会受益。
However, some Japanese resist the idea that Japanese should widely study English. And they have a good point when you sit down and listen to the argument. In a nutshell, the Japanese culture is superior in many ways. They do not say that to me, but I can see it, and I think I know what they are thinking.
然而，一些日本不认为日本应该广泛地学习英语。他们有很好的一点，当你坐下来听争论的时候。简而言之，日本文化在许多方面更好。他们不对我说，但我能够看到它，我想我知道他们在想什么。
The high quality of the culture is undeniable. Look at the country. Their concern is that if kids learn English before learning their own culture, this will dilute the best parts of Japanese culture. My argument is that if Japanese speak English this will improve debate going on in the world forum, and positive Japanese qualities can radiate out of Japan .
文化的高质量是不可否认的。看看这个国家。他们担心的是，如果孩子们学习他们的文化之前学习英语的话，这将降低日本文化最好的部分。我的论点是，如果日本人讲英语很好，这将提高世界论坛上的辩论，积极的日本品质也可以从日本流露出来。
And we cannot read most Japanese press because it mostly is not translated (except for the leftwing papers). Few Japanese books are in English.
我们无法阅读大多数日本新闻，因为它大多没有被翻译（除了左翼报纸）。被翻译成英文的日本书籍很少。
The Great Wall of Japan is language.
日本最大的墙壁是语言。

Japan-Burma:
日本缅甸：
I talked with 8 women today. One was 93 and another 99. The rest were their daughters and granddaughters.
今天我和8个女人交谈。一个93岁另一个99岁。其余的是她们的的女儿和孙女。
They have almost no collective memory of WWII. They never even met a Japanese or any foreigner until today. Just got electricity last year. I was the first foreigner that any had spoken with.
她们几乎没有共同的二战记忆。她们甚至从来直到今天没有见过一个日本人或任何外国人。她们就去年有了电力。我是说话的第一个外国人。
None of the 8 ladies ever has spoken on a phone. 116 families live in the village for a total of 472 people. None of the children have a computer.
8的女士中没有人打过电话。116个家庭合计472个人住在村里。没有孩子有电脑。
They go to bed at 9PM and wake up at 4 or 5. They love the electricity but still go to bed at 9PM.
他们晚上9点睡觉，早上4或5点起床。他们很喜欢电但还是晚上9点睡觉。
I asked if they are happy. All women said they are very happy. One woman started fanning me and I said thank you. She was very nice and all were happy for the visit. They never even asked what country I am from.
我问了他们是不是幸福。所有的女人都说他们很幸福。一个女人开始煽动我和我说谢谢你。她是非常好的，大家都高兴参观我。他们甚至没问我从哪里来的。
I asked many questions about WWII memories, but the only collective memory was of hiding underground from Japanese.
我问了许多关于二战的记忆的质询，但唯一的集体记忆是从日本士兵隐藏在地下。
They said Japanese came but they never saw Japanese. I asked if men went to fight and they said no.
她们说日本士兵来的但她们从来没有看到日本士兵。我问男人去不去战斗了，她们说没有。
I asked if they heard any stories of rape or murder. They said they heard stories of rape but not in their village. I asked which village this story came from. They did not know.
我问她们是否听过的故事强奸或谋杀。她们说她们听到的强奸故事不在她们的村庄。我问从哪个村这个故事来自。她们不知道。
I asked if the village headman was here and they said he is out due to New Years.
我问了村长在不在这里，她们说他不在由于新年刚开始。
They all said I am the first foreigner they ever spoke with and were very happy with the visit, and they all said how happy they have been even without phones or electricity.
她们都说我是她们说话的第一个外国人，我访问了她们感觉很幸福，她们都说她们有多高兴了即使没有电话或电。
They do not even know how to use a phone. I said they are lucky.
她们甚至不知道如何使用电话。我说她们是幸运的。
Separately, if you get a chance to travel in Burma, you should do it now.
另外，如果你有机会去缅甸旅游，你应该现在就做。
The people are especially friendly. Little kids come up with their parents trying their English. They are not begging, just smiling and wishing to talk. (I have no great experience in Myanmar -- others who have seen more will have better informed opinions.)
人民是友好的。小孩子们拿出他们的父母让试试英语。他们不乞讨，只是微笑和想说话。（我在缅甸没有伟大的经验——有人看到更多的话将有更详细的意见。）
This is a very big, extremely complex country. My observations are from just a few short trips, but I can say that I like these people.
这是个非常大非常复杂的国家。我的观察只是源自从两三次的短途旅行，但我可以说，我喜欢这些人。
Burmese I have met in Thailand also have been nice. Reminds me of Thai villagers, Laotians, and sometimes of Nepalese.
我在泰国遇到的缅甸人也很好。让我想起了泰国村民，老挝人，有时是尼泊尔人。
In nearly every country I go to, the villagers are the friendliest.
我去的几乎国家中，那个村民们是最友好的。
