Finance Channel special reporter Liu Yaohong: According to local media in Fukushima on the 16th, starting from next month, TEPCO will accept applications from ordinary people to participate in activities organized by travel agencies to enter the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. The report states that the public can observe Units 1 to 4 up close from a platform inside the nuclear power plant, with a distance of only about 20 meters. In addition, from a height on one side of Units 5 and 6, facilities related to nuclear contaminated water can also be seen, and staff will explain the sewage.
According to the report, TEPCO hopes to gain public understanding of the scrapping of nuclear power plants and the issue of nuclear contaminated water being discharged into the sea through such activities. In the eyes of the outside world, TEPCO is clearly laying the groundwork for the upcoming sea discharge, taking the opportunity to highlight the "safety" of the sea discharge to the public. At present, the countdown to the discharge of nuclear contaminated water into the sea has entered. According to the Japan Broadcasting Association, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida will ultimately decide on the start date of the discharge after the visit of International Atomic Energy Agency Director General Grossy to Japan in early July.
In fact, since the Japanese government decided to discharge nuclear contaminated water into the sea, the opposition of the local people has never ceased. On the evening of the 16th, hundreds of citizens from all over Japan protested outside the Prime Minister's residence, opposing the discharge of nuclear contaminated water into the sea. Many citizens have expressed that the Japanese government's insistence on discharging nuclear contaminated water despite opposition from the international community is spreading the impact of the Fukushima nuclear disaster to various parts of the world. At the protest site, a Fukushima disaster victim who has been taking refuge outside for 12 years and still cannot return home, introduced that the scene from the disaster 12 years ago is still vivid to this day. Although he really wanted to go home and have a look, as the plan to discharge nuclear contaminated water into the sea approached, he felt that his hope of returning home was even more slim.
