Before eating, Japanese people say
“itadakimasu”, a polite phrase meaning “I receive this food.” this expresses thanks to whoever worked to prepare the food in the meal.

Current Event between China and Japan Rightful Ownership of The Diaoyu/Senkaku Islands
China claims the Senkaku (Diaoyu) Islands, that are one hundred miles northeast of Taiwan as well as the Paracel and Spratly Islands in the South China Sea
The U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea gives countries the right to an exclusive economic zone extending 200 nautical miles from their coasts.
The importance of the claims would give rightful territorial ownership of a region where vast underwater natural gas fields are located in the center of the sea.
The amount of oil and natural gas at stake in the South/East China Sea is unknown.
A Chinese estimate approximates 213 billion barrels, which if accurate would exceed the proved reserves of almost all countries except for 2, being Venezuela at 296.5 billion at the end of 2011 and Saudi Arabia 265. 4 billion barrels.

Peaceful Resolution
Both governments know that war would be economically disastrous, with annual trade between China and Japan in excess of $340 billion
One solution is to file a case with the International Court of Justice for arbitration. Although China nor Japan want these disputes to be settled by the International Court of Justice and risk surrender of their sovereignty.
East China Sea Peace Initiative (ECSPI). The plan calls for a peaceful resolution to the dispute that: avoids antagonism; promotes dialogue; abides by international law; establishes a code of conduct; and allows for joint exploration and development of resources in the disputed area.
