TAIPEI, July 7  -- Taiwan leader Ma Ying-jeou said on Monday that the island will hold a series of commemorations of victory over Japanese aggression.

This year is the 77th anniversary of the start of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and 2015 will be the 70th anniversary of victory.

At an exhibition commemorating the end of the war, Ma said that any mistake can be forgiven while facts should not be forgotten, and memorial activities are "of absolute importance to Taiwan".

Non-governmental organizations on the island have held various events to review the war, including picture displays, and musical activities that paid tribute to veterans.

The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression started in 1937 and ended with Japan's World War II defeat in 1945.
