'Japanese students know nothing of 1937-45 war'

Many Web users expressed the need for China to provide its people with accurate historical accounts of the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression (1937-45), after a China Central Television (CCTV) report presented street interviews with Japanese middle school students who were ignorant about the Nanjing Massacre, which saw nearly 300,000 Chinese lives lost to the conflict.

The report, which concluded that Japan will be unable to properly reflect on history given Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's recent assertion of removing the words "invasion" and "Nanjing Massacre" from Japanese history books, has left Chinese people believing that China is in no position to point fingers.

"Even China cannot correctly address the history of the war," Sina Weibo user Wangyiningjiushiwo said. "Few people even remember the September 18 Incident and the Lugouqiao [Marco Polo Bridge] Incident."

Others criticized Japan for trying to deny the invasion.

 "Even though Japan sees their invading behavior as inhumane and humiliating, it should not be the reason for the country's refusal to admit to their mistakes," Sina Weibo user Miss Fang said.

Some Web users commented sarcastically on the report that denounced Japan, saying that the remarks also pertain to China as Chinese history textbooks do not include many accurate accounts either.

Drivers are a new  'scapegoat' for officials

A news report revealing that official drivers waste many hours of the day idly surfing the Internet has much of the public believing that officials are using the drivers as a scapegoat to hide that officials are in fact the ones who shirk job responsibilities.

Seven government departments in Guangzhou said that out of all employees, drivers are the ones who waste the most time online each day, with one tracked IP address showing that a driver plays online games for more than four hours a day, People's Daily reported Saturday.

Web users said that the drivers have become a new scapegoat for officials, who used to blame lapses discovered by the public on temporary workers.

Others joked that officials have now turned to drivers, knowing that the public is tired of hearing about temporary workers.
