....the State of Israel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel) honored Sugihara as one of the Righteous Among the Nations (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Righteous_Among_the_Nations) for his actions. He is the only Japanese national to have been so honored. :Kaleun_Salute:

In the US, a memorial to Sugihara was built in Los Angeles' Little Tokyo in 2002, and dedicated with consuls from Japan, Israel and Lithuania, Los Angeles city officials and Sugihara's son, Chiaki Sugihara, in attendance. The memorial, entitled "Chiune Sugihara Memorial, Hero of the Holocaust" depicts a life-sized Sugihara seated on a bench, holding a visa in his hand and is accompanied by a quote from the Talmud: "He who saves one life, saves the entire world."
