When I came here, the weather was a bit uncommon and the atmosphere was unknowingly a bit heavy. Just beside the cathedral, opposite the tangled tree, the door looked gloomy and scary, inside the former US prisoner of war camp in Japan. In the years of World War II, the Japanese used captured American personnel to build an airport, and on the eve of surrender, burned 143 prisoners of war, and only a few survivors jumped to escape. Now it is a small garden, which is displaying the book "Tribute to Palawan - 70 years of freedom" by the director of the Third World Research Center at the University of the Philippines. If you have a little interest in history, you will understand that every war in human history, There are countless people and things flashing in the local battle, and Palawan represents the Pacific battle, but among them, the sea is a drop. In the garden, some young students are looking like young people, or holding a pile of test papers to prepare for the exam, or gathering to talk about something, and not far from the garden is the sea, far from thinking that it should be the escape route of a few survivors. Sometimes it is difficult to understand the complex attitude of many countries to the United States, respect, fear, want to stay away, and always break, but at least here, watching the monuments of 143 American soldiers who died in foreign lands, perhaps you will understand more. Maybe you should think about Shen Guangyao in "No Question West and East", think about the American flight instructors who don't even have names, there are always some things that are free from dirty politics.
