Quite a story. Reminds me somehow of a guy I met in Indonesia who's called Hitler by his first name. Over there for a lot of people it's just a well known name, but they don't know who the fuck he was or what he did.

Um, no. A lot of people in Asia know who Hitler was. In a large part of Asia, Hitler is seen by many people as the enemy of hated colonialists (Germany's attempt at colonialism having failed to get far and Nazi Germany's alliance with imperialist Japan not really registering, for whatever reason). We might see the perspective as skewed, but then much of Asia would respond with "Um, about this Churchill guy that you all seem to like so much..."
