Radiation at the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan still exceeds the standard by hundreds of thousands of times. Japanese civic groups urged the government to dump the polluted water from this water into the sea, asking who the heck is this policy for. Correspondent Lee Kyung-ah reports from Tokyo. The investigation team rushed out of the scene as the radiation dosimeter alarm continues. This video was taken inside the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant on the 9th. The polluted water that the Japanese government is pushing to discharge into the ocean is a mixture of water that is put in to cool the melted nuclear fuel in the nuclear power plant, rainwater and groundwater. Japanese civic groups strongly objected, saying that contaminated water that could have been in direct contact with nuclear fuel cannot be thrown into the sea. Residents of Fukushima prefecture at the press conference complained that there was only disbelief in the Japanese government’s response to the nuclear accident. The Japanese government emphasizes that it has heard the views of stakeholders seven times and has also received public views. However, civic groups criticized the government for only collecting formal opinions and ignoring 420,000 signatures across the country that opposed the ocean dumping. The governor of Miyagi Prefecture, a region affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake, has also publicly criticized public criticism that it cannot be seen that there have been national discussions on ocean discharges and that public opinion against the government Japanese is growing.
