Features: Sixty-nine years ago, in the small port city of Huludao in Northeast China, kind-hearted Chinese people began to repatriate 1.05 million citizens of the enemy country, including some Japanese who had once directly harmed Chinese compatriots, back to their homeland of Japan. The repatriation of Japanese nationals in 1946 still moves many Japanese people today, with countless individuals crossing the ocean to visit their "rebirth place" of Huludao. The large-scale repatriation of Japanese nationals in Huludao was the result of coordinated cooperation between the U.S. and China, as well as the Kuomintang and the Communist Party of China, in handling post-war issues. The large-scale repatriation of Japanese nationals in Huludao fully embodies the broad-mindedness of the Chinese nation and the humanitarian spirit of the Chinese people. Especially in Huludao, this land once trampled by the iron hooves of Japanese invaders, in its own wounded state, selflessly opened its arms to accept millions of foreign nationals from the enemy country and allowed them to embark on their journey home from here. This book tells a moving story that has been buried for over half a century, using a wealth of precious historical photos and concise text explanations. It is available in both Chinese and English for friends both at home and abroad to read.
