Shocked! Representative from Philippines was not the usual concept of a common teenager. He was so smart and way matured for that age. 🇵🇭

[@Alan-wu7tx]

It is then also a question of whether judging a teenager from 1956 by today's standards does him justice.

[@taurusguy9305]

Most teenagers today in our Inang Bayan are full of crap. Doing stupid things in social media or playing video games because they're too lazy to wash dishes.

[@inansaydok4872]

Raul is so damn genius and incredibly smart

[@suerkopeal1931]

Representative in the Philippines 🇵🇭 was so smart.sending love from the Philippines.i love Raul Contreras god bless you and mabuhay

[@bordoncarlos]

Raul Contreras was brilliant ... Maybe he was diligent during that time ... He keeps on reading issues in News Papers or Transistor Radio to be aware and familiar with what issues emerged in the society. That was one reason he can discuss with other students from other countries. He is one of those gifted individuals at that time. Thank you !

I think part of the trouble is that Japan's government does not know how to apologize properly. I feel bad for the japanese people who are clueless about this historical problem. Japan has apologized to countries like korea and other countries that were occupied in WW2, they even paid reparations multiple times. The problem is that when one apologizes one should acknowledge or admit to the wrong doing committed. The japanese government always just says "we committed war crimes" but the refuses to acknowledge what the specific crimes were or who were the soldiers/officials that committed them. Instead of saying "we held women hostage, turned them into slaves and raped them" they say "we commited some crimes, maybe, and some of those women were prostitutes anyway." It's such a bad apology. There was even a moment were the japanese government tried to prevent the installation of a statue that was in memory of the women raped by japanese soldiers. Which caused a lot of upset feelings, which caused japan to apologize again, and pay even more money. The japanese government is wasting the japanese people's tax money which could have gone to other things. Money won't heal the wounds of history. Moreover the money could be taken like an insult. It's like a crimegang throwing money at an abused woman telling her to shut up and forget about the crime done to her. Apologizing comes with a certain amount of shaming oneself by admitting mistakes in hopes that you would be forgiven by the aggrieved or by the community at large. The japanese government has to accept this shame, and not just use money as a means to get its way.

[@coachrich33]

Totally agree

[@Yes_Fantasy_419]

"They have to accept this shame"? That is the most vile and disgusting thing I've ever heard in my life! SHAME FOR WHAT? For crimes against humanity they didn't commit? How many Japanese politicians and citizens fought in World War 2? Do Filipinos feel shame and guilt at their current dictator's execution of drug dealers or do the Chinese feel guilt over Mao's crimes against humanity like The Great Leap Forward and The Cultural Revolution.

[@bordoncarlos]

Prejudice may tantamount to grievance. Once grievance is settled it will fade slowly ... May be forgotten. Thanks .. God bless you !

[@javapua]

I started to laugh when he started talking about women who have white complexion on the face but neck down, the color is darker....well, methathion hasnt been discovered yet. I love this boy! He is not just smart. He is so observant and perceptive for such a young boy.

[@StanBushrockss]

They said that in imperialist Japan, when the Japanese soldier fails his mission, he commits suicide to regain his honor. Japanese also have Kamikaze pilots that kill themselves and the BANZAI CHARGE. Historically, Japan hates feeling inferior and low. There is no place for weakness in Japan, that is why TODAY,there are so many people committing suicide in Japan because of their mentality.

[@osamabinladen824]

Ron Matt Is that true?

[@sevillanoangeloa.4876]

New here, I love Japanese and Korean from the Philippines ❤️

[@cecillelustares3966]

they are both smart and brave to speak up!

[@apollo3959]

I think you're the first person to ever react to these exchange students debates from the 19th century

[@tohanwi]

20th fam, 19th would be 1856. Its probably a typo but for others a (th) is one ahead. (16th is 1500-1599,) the exception is BCE as its backwards (8th century BCE is 900-999). Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

Nope

keep up the awesome content bro. nice reaction vid.

Phil boy! Smart

[@mondingperez4790]

during the 50s japan was still recovering from the 2nd world war but on the 60s japan was already starting to become a industrial giant together with germany. i was born 1953 and i remember well that japan starts paying the Philippines repatriation in a form of heavy equipment at present time the Pinoys loves japan

[@rnielvhinsieans.elpidama6935]

Can you also react to johnny b antillon 1954 debate about communism or criticism about americans

[@liliaabellanosa8424]

This was in the 50’s not the 90’s

[@datgreedymouse6860]

Everytime he shows the picture of the japanese comedian i sniggered

[@laydzhang295]

Nice reaction. Worth watching these debate but you know.. I kinda ship Philippines and Japan representative. They look cute sitting together and the way they smile while the other one is talking is sooo beautiful to look at. These four are very intelligent for their age.

[@dorisdelacosta3331]

hahaha

[@laydzhang295]

@@dorisdelacosta3331 lol sorry if you find this funny. I just think they are cute✌😊

[@laydzhang295]

I'm from Philippines BTW and I love anime and Japanese culture. I also like Korean culture and I hope Japan and Korean will soon have.. Theey are now okay but you can still hear some arguments because people have very different opinion and I wish they will totally become friends and all people living in Asia...uh I mean the whole world will be friends.

[@reyshakquit]

Shin, I have a very serious question. If you are an American or a foreign person doing business with a Japanese man, probably born in the 1950s, he hands you his business card, you accept it with two hands and bowing, but you are clearly nervous and you drop it by accident, you are also in a group setting and everyone sees it. What happens next? Would that man be extremely upset at you for being clumsy? Or would he just give you a pass for being a foreigner?

[@shinsmith3185]

I can't say for sure coz I'm not that generation but probably the latter. We understand foreigners. Guess we will more upset about them not having business card tho.

[@StanBushrockss]

I think Korea should forgive Japan, because it is now half a century, and those Japanese who did those terrible human rights crimes are dead. And also, Japan Government paid for their sins with the atomic bomb being dropped. War is two sided, and both sides, aggressor and victim, suffers.

[@osamabinladen824]

Exactly

[@johnlawrence6484]

And this Asians fight each other just like what what western wants, the Asian suffered alot lol.

[@1211jinx]

Ron Matt,Comfort women from vietnam and thailand who were abused by korean soldiers were asking for apology as well.But it seems they have forgotten to do it but they still hated japan even if japan apologized and admitted what happened in the past.🤦‍♀️

[@leehomlam4474]

I agree. And now the whole world should unite against the common enemy, which is the Chinese Communist Party.

[@StanBushrockss]

@@leehomlam4474 That's not reailistic. LOL

[@game_life_1]

Well when that boy says that now I wants to live Japan agree on in the different and same matter. But the most reason is because it is more peaceful there that Is wants to make my family there. By the way I'm from the Philippines 🇵🇭.

"They cried out, but it didn't matter to us whether the women lived or died," Kaneko said in an interview with The Associated Press at his Tokyo home. "We were the emperor's soldiers. Whether in military brothels or in the villages, we raped without reluctance." -- Yasuji Kaneko, ex-soldier of the Imperial Japanese Army, 2000. Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yasuji_Kaneko

Why are you kept on saying [prejudaiz] which is not [prejudaiz] itself? Please do not change the pronounciation of the past.
