More than 1,000 people gathered in Beijing Saturday morning to protest
Japan's distortion of its wartime past and Tokyo's bid for a permanent seat on
the UN Security Council.
People, echoing the call from a website, came to the Hailong shopping center
in northern Beijing's Haidian district, carrying anti-Japanese banners.
Japan officially approved new textbook on Tuesday which glossesover Japanese
wartime atrocities.
The gathering participants called out slogans as "boycott Japanese-made
products," "safeguard Diaoyu Islands," and "smash the Japan's daydream of
seeking permanent seat on the UN Security Council."
The gathering people are increasing by press time and the police are keeping
the order.
