一言居士
- A person who has something to say about everything
I’m fed up with the Democratic Party (of Japan). They’ve got to start all over again…Taken from the most extreme perspective, their government is no different from the Liberal Democratic Party governments. But if you think about it, there is one difference. They’re even worse than the LDP…They have no sense of direction when responding to nuclear energy, economic policy, or foreign affairs and defense, such as the Senkakus and the (American base at) Futenma. They’ve made almost no progress in responding to the Tohoku disaster…What was it, that Noda declaration about “convergence”? (N.B.: The prime minister stated there was a cold shutdown of the Fukushima plant, achieving “convergence” with Tokyo Electric’s plan for dealing with the disaster.) Does Noda really think there was convergence? He should go back to grade school and study the meaning of convergence.

A report this week states that only 5% of the debris generated by the Tohoku disaster in the three prefectures with the worst damage — 11 months ago — has been disposed of.
