Museum reveals documents detailing forced wartime labor

The Museum of the War of Chinese People’s Resistance Against Japanese Aggression revealed documents yesterday it said will help a compensation claim against Japan over forced labor.

The museum has more than 400 documents which detail how 40,000 Chinese were forced to work in Japan during World War II.

“We are going to file lawsuits to the Japanese government to make them admit what they did, apologize and give compensation to the relatives of victims,” Li Zongyuan, its deputy director, said.

Most previous claims against Japanese corporations have failed.
