Thanks for the post and the video. Very depressing stuff.
I note that ATS is too bothered with all the other stuff about murder and killings to popularize your thread, but your thread is the most humanist and
well intentioned of all I have read today. It inspired me to write to TEPCO and the Japanese Government, which I have done. I will also write to the
BBC to quiz them on the fact that that they have deliberately not reported facts about the disaster and the ongoing contamination issues.
If anyone else wants to write a letter of protest to TEPCO here is the link:
TEPCO contact
Here is a copy of the letters I have written:
To TEPCO
"Dear Sir/ Madam,
I am writing to communicate my utter horror at the way your company,the Japaness Government and world media networks have handled the Fukushima
Nuclear disaster.
I am having to get all my information from independent media and analysers of the contamination effects upon the Japanese people and others nations
who have been exposed to radiation as a result of the leaking and exploding reactors.
What I have witnessed this last year as to what amounts to a media blackout and utter lack of information being communicated about the contamination
of human beings, from TEPCO and the Japanese government.
I am receiving via independent media sources very worrying and diturbing reports about Japanese children from the Fukushima Province having strange
thyroid growths, alongside all manner of other reports of the severe contamination and poisoning of human beings.
Yet I hear NOTHING from TEPCO and the Japanese government.
I am criticising TEPCO and the Japanese government in the strongest terms for your whole handling of this crisis and what I believe to be a very
disturbing blackout of information and the true effects of the contamination.
You will not be able to hide from this. It is real. The truth about the contamination is and will continue to surface despite what I believe to be
your deliberate silence, the silence of the Japanese government and the silence of the world media outlets.
The Japanese people have many concerned friends around the world and this will not be allowed to be silenced.
I urge you and the Japanese government to come clean with the true effects of the contamination, to gather true and proper statistics via the health
services, doctors and scientists in Japan and to provide the very best health care to all the innocent people affected by this appaulling, largely man
made disaster.
Thanks for your time
yours sincerely
Michael ****"
To the UK Japanese Embassy:
"Dear Sir.
I am writing to express my utter horror at what is my opinion an utter cover up of the facts pertaining to the contamination of the japanese and other
nationalities as a result of the Fukushima radioactive contamination.
I have written to TEPC and also I wish you to be aware of this letter and my criticism of TEPCO, the Japanese government and world media outlets for
not informing the world more as to the true implications and effects of this disaster.
After a year of having to get all my info from independent media and in a climate where there is little or no facts coming from either the Japanese
government or TEPC about the true effects of the contamination all I can do is to express my disgust at the way this entire incident has been handled.
TEPCO and the Japanese government have not lived up to their responsibilities to inform the populace properly and in my opinion there is a deliberate
cover up to hide all the facts.(followed by a copy of the letter to TEPCO).
I shall also be writing to the main media organisation in my country, the BBC, to ask why they have not reported on this disaster effectively and have
not informed us about the ongoing contamination issues.
yours sincerely,
Michael ****"
Well atleast I try! Better than sitting on my ass and doing nothing like most people do.
