Historical lessons can never be forgotten.Nanjing Massacre is not only the misfortune of the Chinese people but also of the world.It was an unscrupulous trampling of human civilization.On August 12, 1985, the People's Government of Nanjing Municipality had the Memorial to the Victims of the Nanjing Massacre erected on the site of the Jiangdongmen,one of the places where the Japanese troops slaughtered the Chinese civilians in mass.Since then,numerous people from China as well as a great number of overseas friends have come to visit and express their grievances as well as teir wishes of opposing aggressive wars and safeguarding world peace.
Peace and development is the common theme of the human beings.People in Nanjing,having had much sufferings from wars,cherish even more peace and life,and they are dedicating themselves to the construction of a New Nanjing. |
