Survey Overview The Genron NPO and China International Publishing Group conducted joint opinion polls targeting thecitizens of Japan and China in September 2019. This survey has been administered annually since 2005,when Japan-China relations were at its worst. This year marks the 15th year that this poll has beenconducted. The objective of the survey is to continuously monitor the state of mutual understanding andperceptions of the Japanese and Chinese public towards one another as well as the changes that ensueover time.The opinion poll in Japan was administered through the placement method (in which the survey washand-delivered to homes and then collected) between September 7 and September 28, targeting men andwomen above the age of 18. A total of 1,000 valid responses were obtained. Respondents were 48.6%male and 51.4% female. The age range consisted of 2.4% under the age of 20, 11.9% between the ages of20 and 29, 14.7% between the ages of 30 and 39, 17.5% between the ages of 40 and 49, 14.5% betweenthe ages of 50 and 59 and 39% over the age of 60. The educational background of respondents were 5.7%junior high school diploma and under, 49.3% high school diploma, 20.6% junior/technical collegediploma, 21.7% bachelor’s degree and 1.1% master’s degree or higher.The opinion poll in China was administered through individual interviews between September 7 andSeptember 20, targeting men and women over the age of 18 in 10 cities: Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou,Chengdu, Shenyang, Wuhan, Nanjing, Xi’an, Qingdao and Zhengzhou. A total of 1,597 valid responseswere obtained. Respondents were 48.7% male and 51.3% female. The age range consisted of 2.8% underthe age of 20, 20.2% between the ages of 20 and 29, 24.4% between the ages of 30 and 39, 26.2%between the ages of 40 and 49, 17.8% between the ages of 50 and 59, and 8.7% above the age of 60.

This survey targeting intellectualswas administered together with the public opinion poll in order to complement the general understandingof the Japanese and Chinese peoples by comparing expert/intellectual perspectives with the resultsobtained from the public opinion poll. Most intellectuals in both Japan and China do not depend solelyupon domestic media or the internet as their means of obtaining information on one another’s countries.Rather, contrary to the general public, intellectuals obtain information by actually traveling abroad orthrough direct contact with friends and acquaintances in the other country.In Japan, the same survey used for the public opinion poll was emailed between September 12 andOctober 9 to approximately 2,000 intellectuals consisting of domestic business managers, academics,press, and government employees who had previously participated in The Genron NPO’s discussions and1Copyright(c) 2019 The Genron NPO All Rights Reserved.

1. Impressions of One Another’s CountriesImpression of the Other CountryThe Chinese people’s impression of Japan has improved, with 45.9% stating that they have a“favorable” impression of Japan, recording the highest this percentage has been since the surveybegan in 2005.By contrast, while there has been some improvement in the Japanese people’s impression of China,84.7% still have an “unfavorable” impression, showing results that contrast with those of theChinese. There was a slight increase in those with a “favorable” impression of China, but thispercentage still only amounted to 15% of total responses.【Impression of the Other 3%86.8%88.8% 8.6% 31.8%26.6%21.4%27.3%20.8% 15.6%9.6% 1.7%20152016Japanese public opinion: favorable/ relatively favorableJapanese public opinion: unfavorable/ relatively unfavorableChinese public opinion: favorable/ relatively favorableChinese public opinion: unfavorable/ relatively unfavorable3Copyright(c) 2019 The Genron NPO All Rights Reserved.15.0%11.5%201720182019

Reasons Behind the Impression of the Other CountryThe greatest reason for the “favorable” impression of China among the Japanese was the “increasedfamiliarity of the Chinese due to greater numbers of Chinese visitors and private exchanges” at 40%,largely surpassing last year’s 32.8%. The overall scheme in which the increase of Chinese visitorsand private exchanges contributed to a more favorable impression of China among the Japanese wasthe same as last year.Among the Chinese, the most popular reason for their “favorable” impression of Japan was, in linewith last year’s trend, the “remarkable growth of Japan’s economy and its high standards of living,”at 53.1%. Over 40% also cited reasons such as “Japan’s beautiful environments, scenic landscapesand many sights, including hot springs” (49.7%), “high quality of Japanese products” (49.4%), and“Japanese politeness, good manners and high cultural standards” (44.6%), showing a diverse set ofreasons for the favorable impression, from tourism and Japanese products to national character.On the other hand, the greatest factor contributing to the “unfavorable” impression of China amongthe Japanese was “continuing territorial issues over Senkaku Islands and Japanese waters/airspace,”at 51.4%. This percentage, however, has decreased from last year’s 58.6%. While most factorsshowed a decrease from last year’s results, uneasiness over China’s “different political system(one-party rule of the Communist Party)” rose 6 points from 37% last year to 43% this year,constituting the second most popular reason for the “unfavorable” impression of China among theJapanese public.Among the Chinese public, two reasons stood out as contributing to the unfavorable impression ofJapan, following last year’s trend – “Japan’s lack of a proper apology and remorse over its history ofinvasion into China” and “Japan’s nationalization of Diaoyu Islands” at approximately 60% each.4Copyright(c) 2019 The Genron NPO All Rights Reserved.

Obstacles to Building Japan-China RelationsWhile the majority most common answer choice of the respondents from both countries continues tobe “territorial issues,” which they thought as the greatest obstacle to building Japan-China relations,but this percentage has dropped from last year for both countries. For the Chinese, it continues to befollowed by “economic frictions,” “disputes over marine resources” and “lack of trust,” both“between governments” as well as “between nationals.” The percentage of those who selected“nationalism and anti-Japanese sentiment,” however, rose 15 points from last year’s 5.4% to 20.4%.Among the Japanese, those who cite the “lack of trust between governments” rose to over 40%.Additionally, the responses “economic frictions” and “China’s reinforcement of military forces” alsoshowed increases from last year. Meanwhile, the percentage of Japanese who cite the “lack of trustbetween nationals” fell to under 30%, down 8 points from last year.【Obstacles to Building Japan-China Relations】【Chinese public opinion】【Japanese public opinion】60%40%20%28.0%36.1%Disputes over marine resources (gasfield development in East China Sea)Territorial issues over Senkaku/ DiaoyuIslands54.4%61.1%17.8%14.4%16.0%13.9%China's reinforcement of military forcesJapanese nationalism & anti-Chinesesentiment3.3%3.4%Chinese nationalism & anti-Japanesesentiment15.9%17.9%Perception of history and education inJapan5.6%5.0%Perception of history and education inChina18.5%18.7%1.8%1.0%Anti-China broadcasts by Japanesemedia4.8%5.2%Anti-Japan broadcasts by Chinesemedia15.0%15.3%2018 (N 1000)Inappropriate remarks on China madeby Japanese politiciansInappropriate remarks on Japan madeby Chinese politicians7.9%4.0%2.4%0.9%Other1.6%2.3%No response24.9%27.5%Disputes over marine resources (gasfield development in East China Sea)Territorial issues over Diaoyu/ US alliance & Japan'sreinforcement of military forcesUS-Japan alliance & Japan'sreinforcement of military forces910.0%Future of the US-China trade warChina's reinforcement of military forces5.1%8.8%Japanese nationalism & anti-Chinesesentiment6.4%9.0%Chinese nationalism & anti-Japanesesentiment5.4%Perception of history and education inJapanPerception of history and education inChinaInappropriate remarks on China madeby Japanese politiciansInappropriate remarks on Japan madeby Chinese Anti-China broadcasts by Japanesemedia2.6%4.3%Anti-Japan broadcasts by Chinesemedia0.4%0.6%Other0.0%0.0%No response0.4%0.3%Copyright(c) 2019 The Genron NPO All Rights Reserved.60%22.2%24.2%Economic frictionsEconomic frictions4.8%5.2%40%24.7%27.6%Lack of trust between governmentsLack of trust between governments32.4%32.6%20%Lack of trust between nationalsLack of trust between nationals43.6%39.6%2019 (N 1000)0%0%2019 (N 1597)2018 (N 1548)
