摘要
This year marks the 40th anniversary of the normalization of diplomatic relations between China and Japan. Due to the fact the Japanese government announced its intention to "purchase" the Diaoyu Islands so as to implement the so-called "nationalization" in September, the related celebrating events were postponed. Consequently the Japanese government's rash move has even impacted the bilateral economic trade between the two countries ranging from tourism to Japanese household appliances and autos during this period.
