     Be as Good as Your Words Japanese Prime Minister (首相) Junichiro Koizumi on April 22 apologized (道歉)

for his country's past in the wars. 

     "In the past, Japan did great damage (破坏) and brought suffering to the people of many countries, especially

those in Asia," he said.

     He was talking to 100 Asian and African leaders at a meeting in Jakarta, Indonesia.

     China and Japan are having a hard time these days. China is angry at Japan because Japan doesn't face its

past.

     For example, Japan started the war with Chian in the 1930s and 1940s. But one of its new history textbooks

says China started the war!

     Chinese Chairman Hu Jintao met Koizumi on April 23. Hu said China wanted to be friends with Japan. But he

 also told Koizumi that Japan needed to use history as a mirror (镜子) and face the past.

     China and Japan are both important countries in the world .The two leaders agree a good friendship will be

good for both countries.

     The two countries sell a lot of goods to each other .Last year ,China overtook the US to become the biggest

trading partner (贸易伙伴) with Japan.

     Koizumi's apology is a good start. Now, it's important for Japan to match its words with action.
