 This is a very rare opportunity for overseas delegates, media, and citizens to hear what has been happening in Fukushima, as the Japanese government, Fukushima prefectural government, Japanese major media, and the nuclear lobby have been trying to send messages “it is safe to keep living in Fukushima”, and Fukushima citizens cannot express their concerns about radiation effects on their children.  Since the national and local governments do not adopt a collective evacuation, children have been living in heavily contaminated areas, ie. 27μSv/h near a primary school in Date city, 1.3μSv/h in Koriyama city where these child plaintiffs have been living since 3.11, 2011.———————————————————-
