Language martyr monument in Japan
Our language movement has secured its place in the international arena. It has been observed all over the world since 2000. The latest addition with that recognition is the inauguration of the first language martyr monument in Japan, which is the first of its kind outside our country. It will remind us how necessary it is to protect our mother language. We love it more than our lives, which was proved by our courageous brothers in 1952. So, why not we take the initiative to protect our diversified domestic languages? From the tribal languages to local languages, dialects have to be protected for their survival.
We have to be very tolerant to other languages along with other cultures, because language is the conduit for any culture.
