「週日名采」:【遺憾何價?】 / 「Sunday Brunch Series」:【Regret at what price?】/

在日常生活,我們間中会反省回顧,仔細想想自己的行為,对人丶对己丶对事有沒有發生壞的影響。這種深思熟慮的過程,是反映出一個人的成熟程度和他/她的價值覌,遺憾与否,主要就在乎個人標凖和現實後果的差異。但一個人覺得「遺憾」之後,願不願意付出一個代價表示歉意,那又是另一個問題了。

試想想,如果某國教育部对二次大戰「南京大屠殺」一事表示「遺憾」,但又不願意修改學校歷史教科書的內容,那么這個「反省」是不是一個有形無實的「遺憾」呢? 但或許從某國方面來看(我是靠估),成者為王,敗者為寇,表示「遺憾」是承認上一代軍國主义錯誤,但國恥又应不应該由這一代戰後出生的年青人付呢? 而那「南京事件」代價又会是什么呢?

口說遺憾是一件頗為容易做的事,但到了要衡量賠償代價的時候,一個人(或國家)真正的成熟程度和價值覌就表露無遺了。

後語: 「南京屠殺」只是例子,在人類歷史中,曾經「表示遺憾」的國家亦不止一個。

有了遺憾不去彌補,還未覺悟!

best actor said...

as you said, regrets and apologies are hollow if no action is being taken to make amends or to prevent recurrence.

日本是一個尊從上屬思想指領很強的國家,
而且亦没有個人思想的「自由」,
只要少數擁權者要點做,
下面的就會盲目跟隨,
所以一切都是以國家利益為最後依歸,
其它什麼仁義等等都要讓路!

Haricot 微豆 said...

I would suggest it is the responsibility of Japan's Minister of Education to tell the truth abt the Nanking Massacre.

imak said...

this is a very serious topic, i like japan in a certain way, but japanese is very stubborn indeed!

Haricot 微豆 said...

I have visited Japan, am impressed with what the country has achieved since WW II, and have great respect to the people and their culture. I have Japanese friends who live there and in Canada. The issue lies (no pun intended) with the dept of education's handling of the school text book content as it relates to Nanking.
