Do Japanese people learn about the Bataan Death March?

Question

Is it apart of their curriculum when it comes to social studies? I mean it was pretty bad and the Japanese probably wouldn't teach their students that they did such bad things but Americans learn about slavery.
So, do Japanese people learn about the Bataan Death March? And is there any reference pages to this curriculum?

Answer 1

no,do American students learn about wounded knee?or other atrocities

Answer 2

No, I don't think so; at least not the last time I heard anything about it. The textbooks in their schools, are all highly censored; and such things as the Bataan Death March are never mentioned.

No matter what any Japanese may say, that they were so humiliated by the loss of WW II, is still a great wound in their national pride.

China, which suffered more than any other nation under Japanese occupation, even with their present day political clout, has not been able to get Japan to own up to the atrocities they committed there during WW II.

And now that Japan is an economic power, don't ever expect our government to do anything about it. Most of the politicians in Washington are all nothing but greedy sxnx ox bxgxhxs, so don't expect them to do anything.

Answer 3

Japanese kids aren't taught about the rape of Nanking, let alone bayoneting British POWs in Hong Kong or the atrocities on the River Kwai railroad, so no, only Americans and I sincerely hope, Filipinos are taught that shameful act.....
