The Japanese people love cherry blossoms and also enjoy eating, drinking and having parties outdoors, especially, when under a row of cherry blossom trees in full bloom.
Sadly, the situation in the 20km radius of the crippled plant, “radiation control area” is different.

Tomioka-machi is one such town that the Japanese government has announced recently, that from 28th of May2013, it’s going to be safe to live there.  Very high levels of ionizing radiation have been measured since the disaster in Tomioka-machi.  But the government is still encouraging the residents to go back and live there.

The notice board in Tomioka-mach says: 

 

 

 

放射線が高い地域になります。

 

観桜は車内から、お願いします。ご協力ありがとうございます。

 

 

 

“Very high ionizing radiation has been measured here. 

 

 

 

Please enjoy viewing cherry blossoms while staying in your car.

 

 

 

Thank you for your corporation.”

Isn’t that crazy.  Who would come and enjoy viewing cherry blossoms in your car, thinking it’s normal.  Japan is clearly in an alert state with radioactive contamination.

(Reference) The Japanese government supports UNSCEAR (standard: up to 100mSv/y is ok for living in , used to be 5 mSv/y).
