This blog offers selected features of alternative Asian TV segments, news stories, editorials, photos and more from Japan, Korea, India, China and many other Asian countries. This blog also includes some WTF Japanese, North Korean online videos, entertainment news, beautiful Chinese and Japanese models, and much more.
Recent photos from a Korean website of many irradiated and malformed fruit and vegetables from Fukushima, Japan have gone viral and are now being reported by mainstream news entities. And these are not pretty pictures, indeed:
Earlier this year Chris Noland volunteered to help cleanup the devastation from the 9.0 quake and tsunami in Northeastern Japan. While doing so he also started to produce a very interesting documentary entitled "Surviving Japan". In this film he and his assistants talk to many Japanese citizens, the government and TEPCO and their stories tell what really is happening now in the wake of the natural and nuclear disasters. Here is the trailer for this film:
"The need to evacuate parts of the sprawling capital of 35 million, may have once seemed an incredible prospect, but some experts say the possibility can no longer be ignored."
New Data Supports Previous Fairewinds Analysis and has now proven that the Japanese Government & TEPCO have lied and failed to take full responsibility for the severity of the Fukushima radioactive contamination in Japan and the world.
Arnie Gundersen: "Burning of radioactive materials (building materials, trees, lawn grass, rice straw) by the Japanese government will cause radioactive Cesium to spread even further into areas within Japan that have been previously clean, and across the Pacific Ocean to North America."
Here is a truly astounding and WTF unbelievable, must see video on how current Japanese government officials are mistreating, ignoring and insulting their very own citizens in Fukushima! These residents are located outside of the current 20-30 km evacuation zone. However, since more high levels of radiation are being discovered near their homes and schools, they want the government to increase the evacuation zone and financially support them and their families to evacuate. But, of course, the Japanese government does not want to do this as it would involve many more residents and cost much, much more. In the beginning of this video, the Director of Local Nuclear Emergency Response Headquarters, Mr. Akira Satoh, answers some very serious questions from some very concerned Fukushima citizens:
Citizen: "As other people do, people in Fukushima have a right to avoid the radiation exposure and live a healthy life too. Don't you think so?"
Akira Satoh: "The government has tried to reduce the radiation exposure dose as much as it can."
Other citizens: "You didn't answer his question!"
Citizen: "So are you saying that they don't? They have that right don't they?
Akira Satoh: "I don't know if they have that right."
Can't believe it? Watch:
Above video was filmed and edited by some anonymous members of the Japanese Save Child website. English subtitles are 100% correct and were done by pejorativeglut.
The below picture is of Mr. Akira Satoh. Towards the end of the video, when he refused to accept the childrens' urine for radiation testing, they should have poured it all over him!
Last month a Fukushima Deformed Baby Rabbit w/ No Ears was discovered in the town of Namie just outside the 18-mile exclusion zone of Fukushima's crippled reactors. Since then, Namie has been identified as a radiation hot-spot.
Now three baby bunnies with no ears were recently born in China. These rabbits were discovered in Chengkou County, Chongqing Municipality of Southwest China. The earless rabbits have bald heads and gray eyes instead of hairy heads and red eyes. The rabbits' owner Aunt Geng was interviewed yesterday by CCTV:
Reporter: "Did the previous rabbits given birth by the same mother rabbit have ears?"
Aunt Geng: “The previous ones have ears. Only rabbits that were born this time don't.”
(Dow Jones) - "Giant polyester covers will soon be placed around the damaged reactor buildings at Japan's Fukushima nuclear complex to help contain the release of radioactive substances into the atmosphere, the plant operator said Friday."
"Tokyo Electric Power Co. (TEPCO) will install the first cover at the No. 1 reactor, the focus of recent stabilization efforts, starting next month."
"Workers will erect a steel framework and place a giant polyester tent-like cover around the reactor building. Similar covers will be placed around units No. 3 and 4. The work is expected to be completed by the end of the year."
(May 10, 2011) Via Russia Today Dr Robert Jacobs a Research Associate Professor of Nuclear History and Culture at the Hiroshima Peace Institute gives us an update on the current nuclear disaster in Fukushima:
