North Eastern Japan st...Two years after Fukushima: <br />North Eastern Japan still a Disaster Zone<br /><br />... The north eastern region, known as Tohoku, remains a disaster zone, with reconstruction barely begun in many areas. A third of a million evacuees are still living in temporary accommodation, which was meant to be for two years only, and have no immediate prospect of resettlement. The exclusion zones around the nuclear plant are likely to remain in place for many years. The decommissioning of the crippled Daiichi plant is now expected to take up to 40 years.<br /><br />The fate of the victims of the Great East Japan Earthquake is an indictment of capitalism. Japan is a technologically-sophisticated economy, the world’s third largest, but reconstruction is proceeding at a snail’s pace. Only 8 trillion yen of the 25 trillion yen ($268 billion) in planned reconstruction funds has been allocated. Of that, only half has been spent, in some cases on projects unrelated to the disaster.<br /><br />Media reports published in the lead up to the second anniversary provide snapshots of the bleak situation facing survivors. Even before the earthquake, Tohoku was an economically depressed region.<br /><br />... An Independent Online article explained that nearly 40 percent of the population of the coastal city of Ishinomaki, or 74,000 people, were still living in temporary accommodation. Older survivors were relying on volunteers and charity for food. Alcoholism and depression were on the rise. Many young people had moved away as there was no future in the city.<br /><br />... <br />http://www.globalresearch.ca/two-years-after-fukushima-north-eastern-japan-still-a-disaster-zone/5326154Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7388372827914524197.post-9519366663943782572013-03-12T09:38:53.240+09:002013-03-12T09:38:53.240+09:00. . . ...one of the most memorable this year, winn.... . . ...one of the most memorable this year, winner of a jury prize as well as an Oscar nomination, is Lucy Walker's unforgettable "The Tsunami and the Cherry Blossom," a look at the aftermath of the 2011 Japanese disaster that emphasizes the way "beauty and terror always exist in nature."'<br /><br />...one of the most memorable this year, winner of a jury prize as well as an Oscar nomination, is Lucy Walker's unforgettable "The Tsunami and the Cherry Blossom," a look at the aftermath of the 2011 Japanese disaster that emphasizes the way "beauty and terror always exist in nature."'<br /><br />http://www.thetsunamiandthecherryblossom.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7388372827914524197.post-2084285645163255772013-03-11T14:39:35.432+09:002013-03-11T14:39:35.432+09:00- from Australia -
