I'm Japanese and it is my first time visiting the Civilian War Memorial in Singapore.
This tower was built in memory of the civilians killed during the Japanese occupation of Singapore during World War II.
It was quiet and peaceful. Also near the city centre, so if you're Japanese, I recommend you visit.
If you liked the video, please leave a thumbs up and subscribe. My goal is to show more of the hidden non-touristy side of Singapore. I appreciate your support.

少しセンシティブな内容ですが、動画にしました。シンガポールが『昭南島』と名付けられ、日本に統治されていた時代について。1942年から1945年。わずか80年前ほどの出来事です。
伺ったのは『Civilian War Memorial』。中国語では『日本占領時期死難人民記念碑』、日本語では『血債の塔』と呼ばれています。
この塔、当時は華僑粛清事件の慰霊碑をつくるために建築が開始されましたが、最終的には統治時代に犠牲になった全シンガポールの慰霊碑として建築されました。
シンガポールと日本の歴史は、意外に知られていません。（シンガポール人は全員知っていますが）。
ぼくも勉強不足ですが、情報はネットに転がっているので、ぜひ過去の出来事を学んでみてください。シンガポール人の懐の深さに感謝します。
最後に、「行ってみたい」という方向けに場所のリンクを貼っておきます。

My eldest brother died as a baby in the Japanese Occupation of Singapore. My parents were running away from the blitz when a Japanese plane dropped a bomb close by. My mother instinctively put her hands to her ears and dropped my brother who was barely 3 months old. He fell down the stairs and died. That night, my father buried his little lifeless body, wrapped in a straw mat, at the hill behind the flats at Kreta Ayer Road, China town. They were too shocked to even grieve. Now, fast forward to 2011: shortly after the tsunami, my son went to Japan to help out with the reconstruction of a damaged town. There he met an old Japanese gentleman who once served as a soldier in Singapore during the Japanese Occupation. When he found out that my son was from Singapore, he, with tears in his eyes, bowed deeply, asking for forgiveness. He couldn't believe that a descendant of the people he once terrorized could one day turn up to help him. What's done, is done. Let's move on and turn our enmity to mutual respect and friendship. Wars always leave scars, but the important thing is what can we take away from these experiences that would turn us into better persons.

I think the problem lies not with common japanese citizens but in your japanese government's refusal to acknowledge the historical guilt of your ancestors. The fact that young japanese are unaware of Japanese occupation of nations like Singapore shows that the japanese government has been wiping out (or skimming over) this part of japan's history from the school textbooks. Its the reason why countries like South Korea still bear a lot of anger towards Japan today ...

@carrotjuice2986 4 жыл бұрын

south korea should stop behaving like "victims" as it was still under the Japanese rule since 1910. Korea was not even invaded during world war 2 from 1937 to 1945. Many Korean men also joined the Imperial army including Park's father who was a army General then. Many Korean army were stationed in other parts of SEA as well. It's the same as the atrocities committed by the Korean army during the Vietnam war. Get this historical fact right, and not watching too much of their anti Japan propaganda movies! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Sa-ik

大学卒業後、シンガポールに仕事で13年いました。お世話になったファミリーのおばあちゃんが戦時中の子供のころのお話をしてくれました。日本軍が来て、家族全員どこかに移動させられているとき、怖くて泣きそうだったのを唇を食いしばってこらえていたのを側にいた日本兵が見て、「よしよし泣くなよ」というような形で頷いてそばを通って行ったのを憶えているそうです。もうお亡くなりになりましたが、戦争のことで僕が一度も責められたことはありませんでした。同国には戦争の名残が多く残されています。ブキティマにあるRifle range roadは、占領中、日本兵が現地人をその坂の上に立たせて、ライフル射撃の的にしたそうで、Rifle rangeという名前がつけられているそうです。また、現在は、入口（というサインもなく、ジャングルを入っていく感じですが）は閉ざされていますが、マックリッチー自然公園の森の奥に昭南神社の跡（手水鉢や石畳の階段）が残っており、戦死者の慰霊の為、会社の同僚たちと一緒にお供えと黙祷をしに行った事があります。貴重な経験でした。

Just to give some perspective on how fast times change: 1. My grandma lived through WWII and the Japanese Occupation. She hated the mention of anything Japanese although she tolerated the gradual globalisation of Japanese culture. 2. My aunt (1 gen after grandma) married a Japanese man, and moved over to Japan when her oldest son was about 11 or 12. We visit them in Japan occasionally and they have fully integrated back into Japanese society. I have a Japanese niece who is just a few years old now :) 3. Me and my Singaporean cousins grew up watching Doraemon, Pokemon and lots of anime (yes Naruto, Bleach etc every week when it released on DSL). We associate Japan with quality and craftsmanship (our parents generation too) due to the automation and mechanisation in the 60s-80s if I'm not wrong. Lots of people in my age group (20-30s) love to save up to travel to Japan as the place is safe, food is great, and it's an Asian country (there are some fears of racism / 2nd class treatment when travelling to white dominated countries). 3 generations, 3 different mindsets :)

@Hippodude5 4 жыл бұрын

Well said. My grandma shares the same sentiment and I do in fact believe that most of the older generation who lived through Japanese Occupation still hold some form of grudge. It's really a good thing that this grudge/hatred did not flow over into the next generation.

Mr. Ghibli Ojisan, thank you for making videos about Singapore in the most "unusual" ways. Your videos on Singapore is refreshing as you explore the heartlands and the less touristy areas of the island. More so I found that you are very down to earth and very honest with your opinions. In this episode, for example, you are not afraid to tell the truth even though, like you said, is a sensitive subject and a large part of your audience are Japanese. You cannot erase history. The people of Japan know World War 2 did happened and Japan did invaded a large part of Asia. The atrocities committed by Japanese soldiers then, were well-documented and that is why the older generation (those who had experienced the Japanese Occupation) still bear grudges against Japan, especially those from China and South Korea. After the war, Japan took on a new course, become ally with the US, industrialized and moved on to become the 2nd economic power of the world. From then on Japan has become a peaceful country. It is true, Lee Kuan Yew, the then Prime Minister of Singapore, was very impressed by the work ethics and success of their Japanese economic model. During the 60's, 70's and 80's, Singapore encouraged Japanese manufacturing firms and banks to invest in the island and that is how electronics became a major industry in Singapore. So it is apt to say, as far as the Japanese Occupation is concern, "all is forgiven but not forgotten". It is true that Singaporeans and most of the world now view Japan favorably and positively as a peaceful and gracious country. Looking forward to a successful and spectacular 2020 Tokyo Olympics in Japan :)

You should not include South Korea actually, Korea (since 1910) and Taiwan (since 1895) were still ruled by Japan at that time. Therefore Korea was NOT invaded during world war 2 from 1937 to 1945. There were also Korean and Taiwanese joined the Imperial army during world war 2, and some Koreans, including former President Park's father were army Generals. One of them was sentenced to death in Philippines for atrocities committed by his Korean guards. It's the same as the Korean army committed atrocities in Vietnam during the Vietnam war. Please get this historical fact right, the Koreans were NOT victims during world war 2. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Sa-ik

My grandma told me that the Japanese soldiers pumped water into her brother until he died. But she understands that it's pointless to blame younger Japanese for sins of their ancestors. U were right that it was 占領　not 統治　. Singaporeans like many things Japanese, so personally I think they choose to disregard atrocities which occurred, because how else can people move on ? This is notwithstanding what u mentioned, which is that one can forgive but not forget. However, true healing is possible only when Japan simply acknowledges what factually happened, like how Germans had acknowledged their war crimes. Having said that, your video is a step in the right direction.

Thank you Ojisan for making the video. As a Japanese descendant, you’re willing to face the war sin of your forefathers. You have my respect. Mum told me that her father went through Sook Ching. He was asked, “do you know Chiang Kai-shek?” My grandpa said that he didn't know who he was and he did not receive education. He was beaten by the translator with a cane on his leg and asked to leave. Till today, I believe that a few kinds of people were on a one way death trip as the Japanese Army wanted to get rid of intellectual people and tattooed gangsters. Not all Japanese then were bad; there were Japanese peace lovers from local Buddhist organisation been thrown into jail, because they were against the war. A documentary that I was watching showed that the low ranking Japanese soldiers did not want to kill, but the Japanese government then used Shinto to control the common people’s thinking; brainwashed them to believe that the war was a holy movement. Evil politicians are always poisonous to the world. Few years ago, due to the itinerary, my Japanese tour guide mum brought her Japanese tourists to Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall. Some, probably the older ones, cried and apologised to my mum. My generation (80s baby) was raised under Japanese pop cultures like manga, anime, games and more. We travelled in Toyota Crown taxi, eat at Yoshinoya and will shop in Daiso. In addition, we did not go through the war, thus we could be more forgiving. However never forget the cruel lessons that history has taught us, so that we humans will avoid the same mistake as a whole. I have a Japanese friend who told me that the occupation was wrong but if Singapore kept bringing up the occupational topic, the relation between the two countries cannot progress. I had been caught off guard and no idea what to reply him. If I were to encounter the same incident again, I would say the same thing as Mr Lee Kwan Yew - “Forgive But Never Forget”. It’s because of the endurance of our Singaporean forefathers so we might live today.

シンガポール出身、シンガポール育てのシンガポール人です。日本語はまだ勉強中ので、うまく伝えられない部分もあると思いますが、コメントを読んでいる日本からの視聴者の方がいっらしゃるので、日本語で書かせていただきます。確かに、第二次世界大戦の時に、シンガポールに住んでいた人が日本軍隊に残虐なことをされましたが、歴史は歴史で、今はあの時のことを考えてばかりいるべきではないかなと、私は思います。小学校の時から、戦争の時に日本の軍隊がどんな酷いことをしたのか、何の戦争犯罪を犯したのかが結構教わっていました。クラスで自分の祖父母から聞いた戦争時代の話を語り合ったりすることも多かったです。それでも、日本を許さずに憎み続けるより、ただ当時は何が起きたかとか、何故そうなったのかとか、どうやってそのようなことを防ぐことができるのかについて勉強しました。シンガポールは小さくて弱い国として、中国や韓国と違い、国際関係の方面から考えると、敵を作る余裕がない。むしろ、戦争や統治みたいなことを防ぐため、いい関係を作るべきのではないでしょうか。とは言え、戦争の時に日本軍隊や憲兵隊が犯した罪を認めない日本の政治家もいて、戦時中の事件を否定する教科書もあって、外交問題になったこともありました。それはなんだろうなと思って、日本が第二次世界大戦に何をしたのかをちゃんと教えて欲しいのです。まあ、それを変えることが日本人ではない私には不可能と分かっています。日本の方もそういうことより自分の生活や仕事や子供の教育などもっと身近なことを重要視するのも当然ですし、今の日本人を責めるべきではないと思います。過去にはシンガポール住民がとんでもない残酷なことを日本の軍隊にされたことが知るべき事実ですが、過去のことにこだわらないようにした方がずっとマシと、私は思っています。

私は学校で今まで日本が第二次世界大戦中どれだけ悪いことをしたか教わってきました。でも悪い事だけが教科書に書かれ、事実ではない事も書かれてあり、そしてそのfakeが国際問題を助長させていた部分もありました。ここからは、これまでの日本の教育の真実を知ってください。戦後、日本の教育はGHQによって決められた教育しか出来ませんでした。今、戦時中の事件を否定する教科書が現れた理由は2015年、戦争が終わって70年が経ち、アメリカの公文書から日本でWGIPという洗脳教育政策が行われていたという事実が明らかになったからです。なぜ日本はアメリカと戦ったか、戦わなければならなかったのか、私たち日本人は学校教育で教わる機会がありませんでした。その歴史の教育方法を日本は見直しているだけです。①米国の原爆を正当化するために南京大虐殺の数が操作されすぎている事②韓国のいわゆる徴用工問題のデマと証言者のfake③日本のマスメディアの偏向詐欺報道。こういった背景もあると言うことを知っていただけたらと思います。最後に、言い訳のように聞こえるかもしれませんが、日本は国際的なアジア人差別と白人帝国主義と共産主義と戦わなければいけなかったのです。だからといって華僑の虐殺は許される事ではありません。日本を許してほしい訳ではありませんが、真実を知ってほしいです。長文失礼しました。Sorry for long writing.

I'm Japanese. I'm a personal thought, but Japanese doesn't think this. Japan invaded Southeast Asia for the purpose of securement of resources to go to war against Europe and America. There was no right. That made a mistake in being selfish. Europe and America retreated by a war, and Japan discounted. It's as a result of the war that a country of Singapore and South East Asia became independent, and countries in Southeast Asia are the biggest victor nation. In fact, the Japanese is thankful for the generosity of the Lee Kuan Yew prime minister and the Singaporean.

U can read more online about General Percival surrender to General Yamashita at the Ford factory on 15 Feb 1942. U can also visit the 'Battle Box' on Fort Canning. On this date every year, the emergency siren will sound at 12noon to remind citizens of this fateful day. Also, there will be uniformed groups paying respect to the glorious dead at the memorial tower at City Hall and also at the Kranji War memorial.

I don't think a view of Japanese Government is right, but it isn't possible to believe a basis of 50,000 people of dead. The trial by the United Kingdom and the number of correct dead were unclear after the war. British investigation estimated the dead at 2500 people and dispensed justice. Material is preserved by British Archives. The records an officer of the Japanese military had are 5000 people of dead. A study also follows this at present. Even a specialist of a university and a researcher don't grasp the correct number of people.

You'll get to see the remains of Yamamoto Otokichi, grave markers of karayuki that came to Singapore, and war memorials of Japanese soldiers. Really fascinating, really worth a visit.

It was an important history that I think deserves to be more widely known in Japan too. Since in Singapore, this history is basically common knowledge to people of all ages who have gone through our Primary and Secondary education system. So if it's widely known here, it shld be the same over there too. Thks for making this more known to younger Japanese then ^^

I remember when my grandmother used to tell me about her past experiences living through the Japanese occupation(blood on bayonet rifles, as she would say it)(eating tree roots/barks and water with just a few grains of rice just to survive), mostly about my grandfather who tried to help others as best as he can regardless of how poor of a condition he was in. That he would beg and plea for others who were suspects to be against the occupation and his head would be buried beneath the mud under the soldier's boots, he was mostly lucky she said but his luck ran out when he was drag away one evening never to return again(she teared while struggling to say this part). Because of that she grabbed what she can and escaped to the nearby woods with her children fearing what's about to come. Having said that, she also mentioned that no young women were safe(sometimes young men as well) from Japanese soldiers at all as gang rape were rampant and she would always hear abuse, screams and pleas for help but all she could do was helplessly grit her teeth and cover her ears tightly. Despite these tragedies, she also said although most of them were bad, some were good and chose to believe that they had their reasons and families. Personally I have nothing against Japanese people and I never went through what they had experienced, but since I studied history I just dislike the fact that the Japanese government just disregard the severity of the situation as something minor when those were clearly war crimes. I feel like for change to happen one must learn from past mistakes, own up(not to feel humiliated but rather humility) and educate the younger generations so that something like that will not happen again(which I am super grateful for your video). Again, I, like most Singaporeans have the same mindset of "blame not the offspring of the ones who are truly responsible for committing the atrocities, for it is not for them to bear.". My view on Japanese people has been nothing but positive.

Ask yourself, if your country is being invaded, would you seek opportunity to work for your enemy by learning their language and helping them with information? SR Nathan openly admited that he learnt Japanese so as to work for the Japanese. In fact, he spoke fluent Japanese and was a good friend of the Japanese government until his death.

Whether or not they betrayed Singaporeans is another topic at hand and then there's... you, trying to bring irrelevant topic in which has no correlation to what I've wrote whatsoever, whether or not they were traitors does not change the fact that the occupation did happen and well before they were actually "traitors". Secondly, what I've mentioned above were facts which can be backed by many sources of which you can easily watch documentaries, WW2 records and accounts or read them online. So which part of my view on Japanese occupation on Singapore one sided? Thirdly, you were probably trying to link what you've mentioned to what I said about "I feel like for change to happen one must learn from past mistakes, own up(not to feel humiliated but rather humility) and educate the younger generations so that something like that will not happen again". And since they had openly admitted to what they had done already, so what were you truly arguing about? Finally, before you start blaming our educational system(Which I have to admit, I am not a big fan of at all) and of our "poor" critical thinking, I am pretty sure LKY's biography is in our national Museum and also to answer your question on "Ask yourself, if your country is being invaded, would you seek opportunity to work for your enemy by learning their language and helping them with information", of course I would, if it meant everyone will have it a little easier by helping them from the inside, I would gladly accept the title of betrayer or traitor. Oh and uh, by no means I am saying LKY or SR Nathan were without flaws by the way or defending them.

As Ghibil mentioned in the video: "Forgive but never forget", we forgive and accept whatever that had happened but we won't forget the lesson taught from the history of the Japanese Occupation. A huge part of what I could recall that was taught by my history teacher was that the Japanese soldiers were really smart because they used bicycle to invade Singapore to keep a low profile.
