Mar 13 - Japan 3.11 - Raditation from Nuclear Plant Explosion

The Earthquake level adjusted from 8.9 to 9.

Japan's nuclear crisis was triggered by twin disasters (Earthquake and Tsunami) on Friday

Four nuclear plants in northeastern Japan have reported damage, but the danger appeared to be greatest at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear complex, where one explosion occurred Saturday and a second was feared.

Japanese officials warned of a possible second explosion at a nuclear plant as they raced to stave off multiple reactor meltdowns.

The melting of the radioactive core — could release uranium and dangerous contaminants into the environment and pose major, widespread health risks.

Residents within about 12 miles (20 kilometers) of the Dai-ichi plant were ordered to evacuate as a precaution.  More than 180,000 people have evacuated the area, and up to 160 may have been exposed to radiation.

When everyone worry about the radiation explosion, one staff who work in Nuclear Plant and he expressed that "Even I will get killed, I still will try everything I can to prevent nuke reactor meltdowns".  He completely expressed Japanese self-sacrifice spirit in order to protect their country.

If stabilize the reactor procedure fail, the staffs in Nuclear Plants will be the first group of people get killed.

Officials in protective gear check for signs of radiation on children who are from the evacuation area near the Fukushima Daini nuclear plant in Koriyama

A mother tried to talk to her daughter who has been isolated for signs of radiation after evacuating from the vicinity of Fukushima's nuclear plants

The effects from different levels of radiation:


200 mSv
The flight between Tokyo and New York release this amount of radiation in the air

2400 mSv
This is the amount of radiation people receive from their daily live

6900 mSv
This is the amount of radiation release from X-ray

100 Thousand or above mSv
In any area that has this amount of radiation, people will have very high chance to get cancer

3－ 5 millions mSv
In any area that has this amount of radiation, around half of people will die

7 - 10 millions mSv
In any area that has this amount of radiation, all people will die

After Nuclear Plant Explosion, Government cannot supply enough electricity.

Mar 12 - Japan 3.11 - Earthquake and Tsunami

One big wave, few minutes, destroyed the whole city

This is biggest earthquake in Japan, the Tsunami have at least 10 meters high, some areas were totally destroyed.












I read the news about Japan government and Japanese who live in Japan after this disaster.

Japan government ordered all the supermarket and convenient store give food and drink to people for free, then government will pay this bill later.

Even under this big disaster, people have a lot of stress, the internet and phone network totally down, all the people try to leave or try to go home as soon as they can, but Japanese have very strong self discipline，everything still in order, they are line up as usual, one by one, no matter to shop for the food or get into the evacuate bus, no one scream, no one push and no one cut into the line.  The news reporter said this is only happen in Japan.....Japanese are too beyond in human being.

Japanese cannot stop the nature disaster but they could help each other after disaster.

Government efficient respond and arrangement, people have strong self discipline help them miminize the demage and mess after disaster.

Even Japanese gang group come out and help those people whose lost home or cannot go home, their efficiency can compare with professional evacuate team. 

Foreigner who live in Japan describe Japanese like ants, the big wave destroyed their routine but they can build the new one very quick.

Many young people sleep on the street, they are not homeless, they are white collar who work in commercial center, they cannot go home because the train and long distant bus has stop after earthquake.

Government open all government office buildings and let people sleep there.

 Japanese find their spot in shelter, read the news about after disaster and waiting for the food.  People are calm and quiet.
