Fukushima refugees may never return home

Leave a Comment
The Japanese Government won't fulfill the initial goal for the return of some 160 million people to their homes, after the tsunami and Fukushima nuclear disaster, and many of these are already remaking their lives elsewhere.

"You can't take a temporary life forever," explained Ichiro Kazawa, 61 years and whose home disappeared in the tsunami. The Japanese citizen pleneava come home next year, with 88-year-old's mother, but I know that's not going to happen. Now, she wants the Government to admit too.

A report by the Liberal-Democratic Party Government coalition leader, asked the Government to abandon the promise made to all 160 thousand evacuated their homes affected by radiation could, one day, be inhabited.

The report also calls for financial support to these citizens to move to new houses elsewhere â€" and that the State spend more money with the storage of huge amounts of radioactive waste, which is up to 20 km evacuation zone.

Decontamination is behind on seven of the 11 cities selected, which forced the authorities to declare that they will not finish the work before the deadline, i.e. March 2014. Thus, 160 thousand temporary refugees will become permanent.
