Testimony of a mother who evacuated from Tokyo

Listen to her testimony (in English).

She evacuated from Tokyo to Kobe in west Japan to protect her daughter.

The contamination does not stop at the Fukushima department border. Tokyo is also contaminated.

Transcription (note 1):

I am standing here to tell you that the Fukushima nuclear catastrophe is not over.

I evacuated to Kansai (note2), three years after the Fukushima nuclear power plant accident.

Where do you think I evacuated from?

I evacuated from Tokyo!

Do you know that Tokyo has serious radioactive contamination？

Tens of millions of people in east Japan live with radioactive contamination now.

I have a daughter who was 5 years old at the time of the accident.

She became very sick one year after the accident.

In fact, my daughter became so sick that she could not live a normal life at all.

However, when she stayed in a place where there was no radioactive contamination, my daughter became so well. But when we returned to Tokyo, my daughter became sick again.

We did not have the option to stay in Tokyo, we just fled from Tokyo and came here.

Living in east Japan means living with many radioactive materials, and it is not a place where people can live healthily.

We are calling for evacuation to west Japan.

We are evacuees from eastern Japan.

Our existence will not be broadcasted on radio waves or published in newspapers. So, I am telling you about it now.

After the accident, we were told that radiation was not a problem, health damages would not occur.

But it was not true.

Many of us have evacuated from east to west due to various health problems.

Many people are getting sick today in east Japan.

People are dying without noticing that it is due to radiation.

Many Japanese can not face this nuclear catastrophe.

Please try to know what is going on in Japan now.

We are telling the world that the nuclear disaster is far from being over.
