In 2015, when Japan applied for the sites of the Meiji Industrial Revolution, it admitted that some sites had forced labor against the will of workers from my country and other countries, and promised to set up an information center to commemorate the victims, but so far it has not fulfilled its promise. However, the Japanese side once again pushed another Jinshan on Sado Island soaked in the blood and tears of the forced labor of Chinese laborers into the World Heritage List. The past of more than 1,200 Chinese laborers being forced into forced labor is vivid in our memory. We cannot forget this dark history and will never forget it. Japanese imperialism once again applied for the world heritage, this brazen act is a flagrant provocation to our country and even the international community. Together with the government, we will resolutely oppose Japan's application for inclusion in the "World Heritage List" candidate list.

Answer:

In 2015, Japan applied for the recognition of sites associated with the Meiji Industrial Revolution as World Heritage Sites. During this process, Japan acknowledged that some of these sites had a history of forced labor involving workers from various countries, including yours. As part of its application, Japan made a commitment to establish an information center to remember and honor the victims of such labor practices.

However, to this day, Japan has not fulfilled its promise to establish the information center. In addition, Japan has recently submitted another site, Jinshan on Sado Island, which holds painful memories of Chinese laborers subjected to forced labor during a dark period in history, for inclusion in the World Heritage List.

The memories of over 1,200 Chinese laborers enduring forced labor are deeply ingrained in our nation's history. This painful chapter cannot and will not be forgotten. Japan's reapplication for world heritage status, despite the unresolved issues related to past forced labor, is seen as a blatant affront to our country and the global community.

In collaboration with our government, we express our resolute opposition to Japan's bid for the "World Heritage List" candidate list. We view this move by Japanese imperialism as a direct challenge and provocation, not only to our nation but also to the international community. The wounds of history remain open, and we stand united against any attempts to whitewash or ignore the painful truths of the past.
