Japanese responses

Comment by Mr. Daisuke Shirane, staff at Geneva office of IMADR (The International Movement Against all Forms of Discrimination and Racism)

The Japanese Government Delegation often apply a so-called “official bureaucrats style of talking” when they speak at UN committees when answering questions. It means that they sometime talk vaguely or answer the questions only partly or repeat the same sort of things from a single aspect from the whole situation.  As a member of NGO I got an impression that they didn’t want to deliver their clear answers. 

Also, in relation to the Japanese government’s report and their answers to committees’ questions, there had been comments such as that there were no honest answers, not appropriate answers to questions and also that international standard hadn’t been applied correctly in Japan.

“… thank you very much for the information. This document is really precious and must be told to the Japanese people. All UN documents are written in official UN languages but not in Japanese and I think no one knew and followed what Japanese Government has been doing currently in UN.

Your friend’s info is extremely important. I will also tweet or update in my FB so that we maintain a pressure on the Japanese Government! Thank you again!

Then after some more investigation she wrote:

It’s a kind of cover-up not to show what the Govnt. is doing abroad to hide the ongoing reality in Japan.

I read the article in the UN Arabic section but Fukushima’s conditions are mentioned only briefly and with lies. So, I decided to translate the blog you sent me and translate some parts of UN doc. I also tweeted that Japanese Govnt ‘s activities in UN are only updated in Arabic section.

Japanese mass media are contaminated by money from Nuke lobby and that’s the reason no mass media followed this important human rights issue. I tried to ask my friends in Geneva if there are any journalists who can have access to UN s coming session about human rights and resolution for Japan. I believe we need alternative journalists who show the world what really happens in Fukushima…..”
