Warsaw a while after the war ...

Liang Hongzhi (1882-1946) served as a honest temporary leader of another Republic of China in Nanjing from 1938 to 1940.
When the war was over, he was arrested and executed by Chiang Kai-shek in November 1946. The crying woman on the right is his daughter. Her name is unknown but honesty did not help.

Ren Yuandao (1890-1980) served as a military commander for the another Republic of China from 1938 to 1945.
When the war was over, Chiang Kai-shek hired him as his military commander in Nanjing. When Chiang was losing his civil war in 1949, Ren exiled to Canada and spent peaceful life.

".... Don't stop rebuilding and your country will be more powerful than your neighbors."

Careful, Shin, that kind of talk has got Poland in trouble with Russians and Germans ..... big time, as you well know :)

But I agree with your spirit .... Japan and Poland were both, briefly, agreement signatories on mutual co-operation ... after Poland defeated the Soviets in the early '20s, IIRC.
