Finally, after a decade of planning, the Asia Pacific Peace Museum is a reality.
This museum is a groundbreaking and essential medium to shed light and educate future generations on the horrors of the Second World War in South Asia and the Pacific. This museum, which is the first in Canada, will be narrating the stories of the Nanjing crimes against humanity, the South Asian comfort woman, colonization, survivor experiences, accountability, justice, and reconciliation.
I was honoured to attend the grand opening of the Museum, tour the museum, and pay tribute to APLHA Education, and my good friend Dr. Joseph Wong, Flora Chong, Gen-Ling Cheng, the donors, and everyone involved in helping build this unique project.
