Boycotting the Japanese Cars Can Have A Great Impact

          Mitsubishi is one of the 135 Japanese companies using slave
          laborers from China, Korea, and other Asian countries during
          the wartime.  A perfect target to start out with.

          The following reply is an excellent and encouraging example to show that we need
          to constantly educate our friends, allies, and ethnic Chinese around the
          world why boycotting J cars (whatever the brands) is not only morally the
          RIGHYT thing to do but a very powerful clout to pressure the Japanese
          (Believe me, economical weapons will wake them up faster than moral
          persuasions). In an earlier e-mail, WH expressed his reservation for
          promoting the boycott that it may make some of our friends feeling
          uncomfortable. I think he is over-cautious. Let's face it, if someone will
          be hesitating for joining force with GA because we are advocating to
          boycott the J cars, I don't think we will be ever going to win him/her
          over in the first place!

          It is a great irony that we are having a hard time to raise the seed money
          of only 100K for the WWII Museum project within our community, yet how many people
          realize that he is effectively contributing few THOUSANDS dollars to Japan
          WHENEVER he buys a new J car. Come to think about it, it really costs one
          NOTHING to boycott the J cars; for there are plenty of excellent cars made
          in USA or Germany. Like quitting smoking, we only need the right vision and
          mental attitude to do so; and I can assure anyone that once he made the
          right choice, he/she would feel so good for YEARS to come!

          We should try to have all the Chinese in the whole world to boycotting the J.
          cars with the most famous brand names. At least we educate the public about
          the history and the attitude. Yes, we will definitely offensive to many
          people which including many Chinese. But we are already in the offensive situation
          simply because we are in this justice movement. For my own curiosity, is
          there any article from the mainstream media of the international society which supports
          the Chinese president Chiang's asking for apology during the visit to Japan
          last November?

          If I knew as much as today, I would have not bought so many J. cars in the
          past.
