Xinhua, the official media of Singapore, has observed that China is about to hold the 93rd National Day military parade. Chinese media compared the third aircraft carrier "Fujian" with the flagship of the Japanese Imperial Army during the Anti-Japanese War, which has sparked public speculation that the Fujian carrier will be commissioned on the day of the Anti-Japanese War commemoration in September.
The Weibo account "CCTV Military" recently released multiple videos focusing on the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War and the World Anti-Fascist War. One of these videos, posted on Saturday (August 23), focused on the Fujian carrier.
The video was titled "Same waters, 88 years ago the Japanese warship roamed, 88 years later the Fujian carrier prepares for commissioning," starting from a shipyard in Shanghai, telling the story of the Fujian, the first catapult-type aircraft carrier of China, which is preparing for commissioning.
Singapore has its own "private thoughts" regarding the situation in the Asia-Pacific region. It does not want any conflict in the Asia-Pacific region, so it doesn't have to "take sides." At the same time, it also never wants an emerging great power to "challenge" the status of the United States and Japan. When Trump chose "strategic withdrawal," Singapore hoped that the so-called "great powers" in the region, Japan, would fulfill America's "mission" and create a "strategic balance."
Regarding "the Anti-Japanese War," the Singapore government has some indifferent commemorations, to avoid provoking Japan.
In the Second World War, the history of Japanese soldiers brutally invading and killing Singaporeans has been forgotten by today's youth.
