Crown Princess Kiko of Japan and her daughter, Princess Kako, paid a two-day visit to Hiroshima City. On August 10, they attended a performance of a musical depicting the life of Sadako Sasaki, who was exposed to the atomic bomb at the age of two, continued folding paper cranes as a prayer for peace, and died of leukemia ten years later.On August 11, 2025, Crown Princess Kiko and Princess Kako offered flowers at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park to honor the victims of the atomic bomb. Tens of thousands of innocent civilians lost their lives on August 6, 1945. By the end of December 1945, the city estimates that approximately 140,000 people had died. The list of atomic bomb victims now includes the names of 349,246 people.
Qu'elles sont élégantes toutes les deux ; chacune a su marier les couleurs blanche, noire, grise en fonction des occasions - J'aime bien la touche turquoise apportée par la pochette de la princesse héritière Kiko !

DeleteVotre question est vraiment bizarre ?!
Two lovely elegant ladies dressed so nicely. Colours are appropriate for the occasion
ReplyDeletei admire the strength & resilience of Japanesse people, they picked themselves up and rebuilt their country. They never asked for compensation from the Americans, no hate, just moved forward.
ReplyDeleteCompensation for what? I suggest you brush up your history knowledge and look up on which side Japan stood in WWII? Nobody forced them to be an ally of Germany and nobody forced them to bomb Pearl Harbour.
DeleteI remember the strength and resilience of my father who was held captive for three years and used as slave labour to build the Thailand Burma Railway as a Prisoner Of War of the Japanese. He weighed 42kgs when found after the war.
Delete@18:26 we are well aware of the history. you cannot compare the destruction to a milatry base at Pearl Harbour to a Nuclear Atomic bomb on over 300,000 innocent familes in Hiroshima, the radiation affected millions of people on the planet, its was cruelty to humanity!
DeleteFrom that day Humankind is foever in fear of nuclear weapons
Do you remember the Japanese prison of war camps?

DeleteJ'ai pu retrouver dans mes archives un DVD "Le Pont de la rivière KWAI" qui nous montre la vie d'un camp japonais de prisonniers de guerre qui ont été employés dans la construction d'un pont dans la jungle birmane !
I don't to recall ever seeing anyone from my the Japanese imperial House hold the umbrella!!
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely to see mother and daughter together
WWII is/was a tragedy not for the good/bad countries but for the entire human race! The strength and resilience of millions is incredible, it's not about picking sides, it's about never allowing this to happen again.

I agree Luna.
Delete@Luna, sticking to true facts instead of lying is not "picking sides". Do you agree?
DeleteLike the saying goes "after a war there are no winners, only loosers" and it is always among the common people that there are the most victims.Those who start a war are usually dictators whose goal is to become the most powerful.

Lovely to see mother and daughter at this event. Very nice-looking outfits and appropriate for the Remembrance of Hiroshima. History is not always nice, but hopefully we can and will learn from it.

Well said, agree with you.
DeleteKiko's white and Kako's both jackets show us how to make and wear short and soft feminine jackets with wider rocks or a dress.
ReplyDeleteYes it is all about proportions
