Massive earthquake of magnitude of 9.0 occurred along the Pacific coast of North of Tokyo 2 days ago. After the shock , huge tsunami swallowed up many town which is along bay and inlet.
I felt small swing in my room when the earthquake occured.
I didn't think it's such a serious situation then.
Few minutes later, I went to my father's room to show him the estimate I made.
and I knew the great earthquake occured arround Miyagi where I lived for 3 years up to 2 years ago.
When I was going out from the door to buy soil and tree for work, my father came to me and said' Great Tsunami! Watch TV!'
and I watched the huge terrible Tsunami hit houses and people who are driving cars and trucks at live coverage from helicopter.
The scene was like movie or something. It was just like hell.
Two days past from the earthquake.
Some of earlier co-worker who are in devastated area answered my mail and told me that they are safe.
What we have to do for them is trying to save electricity.
Many nuclear pawer plant has stopped the run by strong sway.
The electricity supply is running short north of Tokyo now.
That's way we have to save our use.
Big company and factory like Honda and Nissan decided to shut down the production for it.
Oh, it's time to sleep. I have to turn off this PC and go to bed earlier to save electricity and help people in devastated area.
ps. Thankfully, many rescue corps is arriving to Japan from a lot of countries.
I want to say to world ,THANK YOU VERY MUCH! .
So glad you are safe. I was worried for you. We have been watching the terrible devastation on tv. So much destruction, just awful and towns and people washed away.
返信削除Australia is sending teams to help find and rescue people, some have just come back from the New Zealand earthquake.
There will be much to do now to recover from all that as happened. I thinking of you and send good wishes to you and your family.
Thanuk you Sandi.
返信削除I'm fine. Almost same as usual around here.
But,They don't enough electricity north of Tokyo.
Many trains has stopped the run to save electricity there.
To make matters worse,we are faced with difficult truble at a nuclear power plant in Fukushima.
The government and the party are desperately tring to prevent the leak of radioactivity.
We all are worried about the sirious situation.
Thank you for caring. It's comforting that Australian rescue team has come to Japan to help people.
Hi... Sorry for being a completely stranger and leaving a comment in your blog. I just stumbled here searching for news from there, from real people like you and trying to avoid English mainstream media which for some reason became annoying (at least for me). Unfortunately I don't speak Japanese (hating my laziness right now), and here I am trying to find any English and reliable source available. So... I'm happy I've found yours, and please if you can update your situ there now and then, it'll be extremely great.
返信削除My thoughts are there with you all.
Take care and be safe.
Michelle
