Yesterday on the war memorial day our prime minister visited the Yasukuni Shrine which brought about controvertial sensation both inside and outside the country.

Even within the family the opinion was divided between I and my parents who support for his visiting.I agree at the point with my parents that Koizumi should pray for the dead soul who had bitter painful time at the war,but I think he should be more considerate for the reason why many people including other Asians are opposing and should try more effort in persuading them.It can be seen in family issues as well like a child does some selfish act without paying any attention to one's parents notice.

P.S.This time I thought he explained better than before since it was the first time for him to dare to visit it on the right day of memorial that was expected to have maximum criticize from opposition groupe.

P.P.S What I noticed interesting about my parents is that their unfriendly attitude toward neighboring Asian countries which lead them to pay few attention to their hard protesting against Koizumi are similar to that my parents also don't care much about our relatives,having few chance to get along together except for meeting at someone's funeral ceremony.It's the evidence that the problem of deplomacy is just a larger scale of family and relative problem.
