Q: Do school in Japan teach history about Japan colonization to Indonesia?

Answered by Indonesian, who had lived in Japan:
"I went to high school in Japan, & I made sure during the history lesson we never told about the Japan colonization to Indonesia (1/4) https://twitter.com/taegurl_/status/1208350153364492288
(2/4)
In their history books, it mentioned that they joined war durimh WW2 and then lost to allies. They received atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki by United States. Since that time they will never and want to fight again
I once met veteran who were my friend's grandad. I introduced myself that I was from Indonesia, he immediately bowed his body n apologized uncontrollably, he said sorry that they colonized my country. At that time my friend finally found out that Japan colonized Indonesia (3/4)
So many young generation of Japanese didn't know the dark history of Japan. Japanese history education curriculum at school did not tell in detail what Japan had done in the war" (4/4)
