A restaurant in China has decided to bar Japanese from the premises unless they are willing to apologize for their country’s actions in World War II. The City Evening News of Jilin said the restaurant, which was not identified by name, posted a sign that says “Japanese people are barred from entry.” “We totally welcome those Japanese customers who can correctly view history,” a manager told the newspaper. “But as for those customers who still refuse to admit to history, we want to say we don’t like them.” Jilin in northeast China was occupied during the Japanese invasion. The manager said that no Japanese have tried to eat at the restaurant since the sign went up, but he said he is more concerned with reminding local young people about the past. © Copyright 2005 by United Press International
