IM ERNAllN l KRN the bathe bat TOKYO (AP) — In London, mourn ers plan to gather at a cathedral where one year ago Queen Elizabeth II and Prime Minister Tony Blair joined hun dreds of Americans at a service for those who lost their lives in the Sept. 1 1 attacks. In Tokyo, there will be a simpler cere mony — the planting of a lone maple and a moment of silent prayer. Attesting to the global impact of Sept. 11, gatherings to mark next week’s anniversary are being planned around the world. Nearly 500 foreigners from 91 countries lost their lives in the terror attacks that day. In Britain, which lost more citizens in the attacks than any country other than the United States, a service of remem brance and commemoration is planned at St. Paul’s Cathedral. With the shock of the terror attacks still new, thousands of people, many of them American, filled the plaza outside the cathedral on Sept. 14 last year, join ing in prayers and singing hymns. All told, 67 Britons are believed to have been killed. The national focus in Australia will be a joint Anglican-Catholic service at St. Christopher’s Catholic Cathedral in Canberra. Part of the service, to be broad cast nationwide, is to include a candle lighting ceremony by the leaders of Australia’s other major faiths. Prime Minister John Howard is to speak at the ceremony, and the families of the 10 Australians who perished in the World Trade Center are expected to attend. Tokyo has no official memorials planned, but Japan’s Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi will fly to New York for ceremonies and the American com munity prepared remembrances at diplo matic and military installations across the country. A Japanese maple tree will be planted outside the gate of the U.S. Embassy in Tokyo, where many people left flowers after the attack. For some, whether to mark the anniversary publicly or privately was a difficult decision. According to an embassy statement, the flowers were burned in accordance with Japanese religious custom, and the ashes will be used to fertilize the newly planted maple. On Tokyo’s outskirts, a flag flown over the Pentagon and hats from the New York Fire Department were to be dis played at a memorial on Yokota Air Base, headquarters of U.S. forces in Japan. Nearly 50,000 American troops are stationed in Japan, and they have played a key backup role in the war against ter rorism.
