Also, they brought urine of children to the meeting and demanded that the government test it.
Fascinating snippet of life on the ground in Fukushima, with the Tokyo bureaucrats quite literally fleeing from ordinary people asking reasonable questions, and refusing to test the urine of local children.
Japan has a strong culture of deference and obedience to authority. That deference and obedience is breaking down as a direct result of government lies and contempt for their people.
