A South Korean protester shouts slogans with an anti-Japan banner featuring the portrait of Japanese Emperor Akihito at a rally against Japanese Emperor Akihito's journey to pray for war dead in Saipan, in front of the Japanese embassy in Seoul June 27, 2005. Japanese Emperor Akihito headed for the site of one of World War Two's most decisive battles on Monday to pay tribute to those who died in a conflict that still haunts Tokyo's ties with Asian neighbours, 60 years after its end. The slogan on the banner reads: Japanese Emperor's visit to pray for war dead is barbarity. That inflames the blood, frustrate the resurgence of militarism'. REUTERS/Kim Kyung-Hoon |

A South Korean protester shouts slogans as he holds an anti-Japan banner featuring the portrait of Japanese Emperor Akihito, in front of the Japanese embassy in Seoul June 27, 2005. Akihito headed for the site of one of World War Two's most decisive battles on Monday to pay tribute to those who died in a conflict that still haunts Tokyo's ties with Asian neighbours, 60 years after its end. The journey to Saipan coincides with a chill in Tokyo's ties with China and South Korea, where many feel Japan has not owned up to its wartime atrocities. The slogan reads: Japanese Emperor's visit to pray for war dead is barbarity that inflames the blood and frustrate the resurgence of militarism.
