[quote:Anonymous Coward 1295673:MV8xNTM3MTQ2XzMxMjE3MDk4XzFBNTlGMDgx] [quote:Anonymous Coward 11432405:MV8xNTM3MTQ2XzMxMjE1NzYyX0QyNTJEQjVF] [b]Kaieda cites poor communication in nuclear crisis[/b] A former cabinet minister says communication problems were behind the government's failure to declare a state of emergency quickly after the start of last year's Fukushima nuclear accident. Banri Kaieda, who was Economy, Trade and Industry Minister during the crisis, testified on Thursday at a Diet committee investigating the government's initial response last year. [b]Kaieda also recalled an utter lack of information sharing among officials. He said it seemed as if a game of Chinese whispers was going on between the prime minister's office, Tokyo Electric Power Company, and staff at the Fukushima power plant.[/b] http://www3.nhk.or.jp/daily/english/20120517_37.html . [/quote] Total disconnect. The actual plant tech. operators were left unguided at the crucial point when the reactors could have been saved from meltdown. Litigation would seem to be indicated but I expect it will be slow in coming. Some lawsuits have been filed. I don't know much about the japanese system of law. Maybe someone from japan could fill us in.. ~ [/quote]
