John Fitzpatrick. About New China, the Koreas, Myanmar, Thailand, and also about Japanese and Chinese writers and poets. The main emphasis is on North Asia and the political tectonics of this very important, powerful, and many-peopled area.

Nuclear Issues and the Fukushima Daiichi reactor
The Fukushima Daiichi plant in particular and maybe one other do seem to be having problems consistent with pre-meltdown. One problem is of course that the Nuclear Industry, not only in Japan, has a long history of not telling the truth about it's mistakes. This does present some significant problems for radioactivity in Japan and in the air-sea winds and tides of North Asia-Korea and China. I guess we shall see where private corporate interest and national and even international human-safety interests coincide and/or conflict. If I was in a neighboring nation suddenly threatened by Japanese actions in the last 20 years in terms of International Responsibility, then I would not be happy with Japan at all for building nuclear reactors so very near to known Fault-lines.
