The appalling injuries suffered yesterday three workers from the Fukushima nuclear plant have been turning their eyes, once again, to the anonymous individuals who risk their lives to protect their neighbors and to avoid a major catastrophe in the country. While at first the group of 'settlement' or 'nuclear samurai' was reduced to a scant 50 people, with the passage of time, this squad has swelled its ranks to 700.
These men and women act in an evacuation area at facilities located on the northeast coast of Japan. The effort they are doing is feeling rewarded in the form of sympathy and mentions in extranejeros media and social networks, but also between the quiet and less expressive (at least in public) Japanese.
"I think those who lived or worked here in the back knew that sooner or later have to face this kind of thing. They are doing very hard work so I am extremely grateful," said Yasuchika Honda, a publicist 27 years living in Tokyo. Yesterday, the country was moved to learn that three employees of TEPCO had suffered radiation exposure level which was 10,000 times higher than expected when they were replacing a cable on the ground and had to 'dabble' in contaminated water.
Despite wearing protective suits, boots of two of the cane workers were not high enough to prevent water from seeping inside and that caused them severe burns to the skin of the feet and legs. With these three, as were 17 liquidators who had exceeded the allowed radiation level for five years.
The few images that have been obtained of the work inside the plant show white figures moving in darkness to restore power and ensure the cooling system. "All are true samurai," say the fans through the groups and pages that have emerged on the Internet following the nuclear tragedy. "Let us pray to return to their homes safely and may God help them all in every minute they spend working on the reactors, fighting for their country and its people.
Thanks, Fukushima 50," wrote a user leaves Facebook. Meanwhile, the Japanese support this situation with stoicism and without large public demonstrations. Experts stress that it is a sign of respect towards others, to value the group above the individual and to hold back until the mission is complete.
The reserves that have surfaced about the performance of TEPCO regarding revisions and measures of nuclear plant safety, as well as assessing the actual risks faced by liquidators has also influenced the Japanese people remains pending before honoring its heroes as surely deserve.
