“A new year has come. This is the only thing I can say in Fukushima” – Comments of demonstrators in front of the Prime Minister’s Office on January 11

 Here are some of the comments of demonstrators gathered in front of the Prime Minister’s Office on January 11.
“A new year has come. This is the only thing I can say in Fukushima”. “Decontamination costs are a waste. They have to be spent for our lives to be put back in order, not for general contractors to make profits”. “It does not matter if there is an active fault or not. A nuclear power plant itself is not acceptable anywhere”. “Nukes kill people. Nukes kill nature. Do we really need electricity generated by such nukes?” “Adults have to take responsibility for their generation, and we high school and junior high school students are responsible for the future. We take the situation in Japan more seriously than those in the nuclear industry. This is true”. “Why Olympics now? Money for the games has to be spent for Fukushima instead”. “People living in Tokyo do not know how serious the radioactive contamination is, but they also need to evacuate”. “Remember. Also in Germany, those who made profits from nuclear power resisted denuclearization”. (Shinya)

「新年明けました。福島ではそれしか言えません」
～1.11官邸前デモで拾った声

「新年明けまし・・た。福島ではそれしか言えません」「除染費用は無駄。ゼネコンのためでなくその金を生活再建に使わせて欲しい」「活断層だからだめなんじゃなく、どこにでも原発は良くないんです」「原発は人を殺します。自然を殺します。そんな電気がいるんですか」「大人たちは自分たちの世代に責任を持って、僕たち高校生や中学生は未来に責任を持ちます。国を思う心はあの人たちより僕らの方が大きい。それは間違いありません」「オリンピックですか、こんなときに、その金を福島のために使って下さい」「東京に住んでいる人にはわかりません。しかし、あなたたちも避難すべきです」「そう、ドイツでもやはり金を儲けている人たちがやめるのに反対しました」（shinya）
