The action was dubbed “The Year-end Closing Action by Women”. More than 300 supporters gathered in front of the TEPCO main office. “Our lives and the environment were totally destroyed by the Fukushima crisis, yet TEPCO and the government are not held accountable for it. Moreover, they are now trying to restart the nuclear power plants and to export them. We can’t celebrate the New Year in such a mood! TEPCO should not close for a holiday!” With these convictions in our hearts, we demanded a meeting with the power company, but the company received us at the gate, leaving us standing in the cold. There were cries of anger: “Shame on TEPCO!”&lt;br /&gt;The group moved to METI for the protest action and then to Ginza for a publicity action.They finally headed back to Fukushima at 4 p.m.&lt;br /&gt;(Nishinaka Seiichiro)Photo: Women from Fukushima in front of the TEPCO main office&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/stopnuclearkansai"&gt;Video: by a participant of the action from Miyagi and by Kurogane Yoshimi&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_d_WywgS6AU/TxT4HaWHJBI/AAAAAAAACr4/ot2oKvdZebM/s1600/1228-21.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_d_WywgS6AU/TxT4HaWHJBI/AAAAAAAACr4/ot2oKvdZebM/s400/1228-21.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5698452234745357330" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;こんな気持ちじゃ年を越せない！～福島の女たち 東電前で抗議アクション&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;12月28日、福島の女たち40人がバスで上京し、東電・経産省に対して抗議アクションを行った。名付けて「女たちの御用納め行動！！」。支援者もあわせて300人以上が集まり、東電前は一杯になった。「人生・生活・環境をめちゃくちゃに破壊 しておいて、東電および政府への責任追及も十分には行われず、その上、原発の再稼働や輸出といった信じ難い暴挙が行われようとしている。『こんな気持ちじゃ、とても年を越せない！』『東電にも、仕事納めなんかさせない！』」という吹き上がる怒りにあふれたアクションになった。要請に対して東電は、玄関前の寒いところで対応するなど冷たい対応。「ひどい」「東電の態度は悪すぎる」と怒りの声が渦巻いた。一行は、その後経産省への抗議、そして銀座でのアピールを行い、16時過ぎにバスで福島に戻った。（西中誠一郎） 写真報告・動画（宮城南部参加者の声）・&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/stopnuclearkansai"&gt;動画（撮影 黒鉄好）&lt;/a&gt;　＊写真＝東電前で横断幕を掲げる福島の女たち&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-4321683694815543909?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/4321683694815543909/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=4321683694815543909' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/4321683694815543909'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/4321683694815543909'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2012/01/we-cant-celebrate-new-year-women-from.html' title='We can’t celebrate the New Year!

There were citizen protesters at the site, so the Bureau left some at the security office and took the remaining boxes back to the Bureau. The people of Okinawa have grown increasingly angry.   An emergency protest action was held in Tokyo by members of Hitotsubo (small parcel) Anti-war Landowners’ Group Kanto Area Local. Nearly one hundred people gathered in front of the Defense Ministry and Prime Minister's Office in the evening, raising chants of anger such as “The delivery is invalid!” “Shame on you!” A representative of the protesters submitted to the Cabinet Office a protest letter on which was written “Shame on you” in big letters .（Ｍ）&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;沖縄「評価書提出」は無効！～卑劣な未明のだましうちに緊急抗議&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;沖縄防衛局は、12月28日午前4時、辺野古基地移設にむけた「環境影響評価書」の段ボール16箱を県庁に運び込み、黙って置いていった。現場にいた市民が抗議したため、全てを運び込むことができず、残りは持ったまま去ったという。これに対し沖縄県民の怒りが沸騰しているが、東京でも、沖縄・一坪反戦地主会関東ブロックのメンバーをはじめ、有志が緊急の抗議行動に立ち上がった。防衛庁前、そして夜には首相官邸前に100人近い人が集まり、「評価書提出は無効」「卑劣な行為をやめろ」と激しい怒りのシュプレヒコールを上げた（写真）。代表は「恥を知れ！」と大書きした抗議文を内閣府に提出した。（M）&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-676654383899668718?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/676654383899668718/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=676654383899668718' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/676654383899668718'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/676654383899668718'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2012/01/delivery-is-invalid-emergent-protest.html' title='The delivery is invalid!

The group went to the Yotsuya Sanchome area and just around the corner of a convenience store was Katsumata's house. But police officers were blocking the street like a wall. Isn't this an illegal occupation of public road? Why were they doing this? Whose interests were they serving? The road to his house was packed with the participants of the tour. After an argument back and forth, the police allowed us to use the road, but only three people at a time.  I went through the checkpoint and walked to the house with Sono Ryota and Himawari-san.

There are many fixed term manual labor jobs, such as removing debris, but there are very few steady jobs for women. The East Japan Great Earthquake Women's Support Network met with Minister of Welfare and Labor Komiyama to demand improvement of the job situation for women in the Tohoku area. The network gathered voices of women in need of jobs in the area and urged the Minister to improve the employment assistance policy. A woman from Miyagi Prefecture, aged 32, said, “Please assist in any form women who want to work but can't find jobs and give them security.”(Matsumoto Chie) &lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;被災地女性の雇用改善を！～東日本大震災女性支援ネットワークが大臣要請&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;被災地の復興が進むにつれ、なかなか仕事につけないという女性の声が増えている。ガレキ撤去のような期限付きの肉体労働が多いなか、女性たちが継続して働けるような就職口は少なく、雇用支援対策も十分でないとして、東日本大震災女性支援ネットワークは12月19日、被災地での女性の雇用状況を改善するよう小宮山厚生労働大臣に要請した（写真）。ネットワークは、被災地で働き口に窮している女性たちの声を集め、大臣に届けた。32歳の宮城県の女性は、「どんな形でもいい。働きたいが働けない女性に支援という安心を与えてほしい」と訴えた。（松元ちえ）&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-8174093021871290757?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/8174093021871290757/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=8174093021871290757' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/8174093021871290757'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/8174093021871290757'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2012/01/improve-employment-situation-of-women.html' title='Improve the employment situation of women in the quake-stricken areas!

Particularly in the postal service division, more than 60 percent of the workforce is non-regular. They are doing the same work as regular workers, but suffer from unstable employment, low wages and disparity in treatment. At the end of September, 2011, 14 thousand non-regular workers over age 65 were terminated, causing chaos in the workplace due to under-staffing.　The National Joint Committee for the Progress of the Postal Labor Movement (coordinated by the Postal Industry Union, the Postal Workers’ Union, and Kurashiki Postal Union) started a petition campaign for “the equal treatment of non-regular workers in the postal service and their promotion to regular status.” Readers can support the campaign by signing the petition on the web of the Non-regular Postal Workers’ Center.

Its guest was SAITO Seiji, an ex-worker at the Tsuruga Nuclear Power Plant in Fukui Prefecture who organized the world’s first trade union for nuclear power plant subcontractors thirty years ago. What Mr. Saito said was shocking. “No skill is necessary to work in a plant. Most of the work is to remove radioactive matter from facilities with rags and cloths. Anyone can do it. However, it is necessary to arrange as many workers as possible to share exposure to radiation. We even use plastic wrap for decontamination. Nuclear power plants that look ultra-modern are, in reality, supported by primitive work. The Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant is heavily contaminated, and workers there are supposedly risking their lives. It’s time to stop all nuclear power stations that sacrifice workers’ lives and contaminate their neighbors”. Mr. Saito organized 182 workers at that time, but the management of the Tsuruga plant even used the Self Defense Forces to crack down on them. He is determined to “continue activities to abolish nuclear power plants”.

Despite the chaotic situation, citizens carrying placards and banners came to the building of the ministry one after another to immediately surround it. This day was when the 1,000th Wednesday demonstration of former Korean “comfort women” during World War II was held in Seoul. However, the Japanese Government continues to ignore their demands, and their rights have not been restored yet. The action to surround the MOFA was to urge the Japanese Government to resolve the “comfort women” issue. SON Sindo, an 88-year old former “comfort women” for the Japanese Imperial Army during the war, was on a wheelchair to join the action. Ms. Son shouted at the top of her voice among many news reporters, “Apologize immediately. I cannot afford to die yet”. The “human chain” surrounding the MOFA was finally joined by more than 1,300 persons, and succeeded in repelling the rightists’ obstruction.

Citizens protested against the bill in front of the entrance to the Osaka Prefectural Assembly from 10 AM to 4 PM. On this day, MATSUI Ichiro, the newly elected Osaka Governor, delivered his inaugural speech at the assembly. The demonstrators were appealing against the undemocratic bill while spreading banners and delivering fliers in the bitter winter cold. Even some employees of the Osaka Prefectural Government supported the action. KURODA Yoshihiro, the president of the Hotline Osaka against Hinomaru and Kimigayo (Hinomaru: Japan’s national flag), and a university professor also joined the demonstration. The supporters gave the demonstrators food and some bunches of flowers. This action is the first step toward the abolition of the undemocratic bill.

The rally started with KANDA Kaori as MC, a professional storyteller who is active against nukes. OE Kenzaburo, one of the rally organizers and a Nobel laureate writer, criticized Japan’s Diet that approved an agreement to export nuclear power plants from Japan. Mr. Oe also strongly condemned the “rape” remarks of TANAKA Satoshi, former Okinawa Defense Bureau Chief, saying, “High-ranking officials forcibly implement (wrong) national policies while making such controversial remarks”. Mr. Oe appealed the movement for denuclearization be continued, saying, “Some doubt an effect of signatures, but wills of 10 million people will be reflected in the next election in any way for sure”.

Among them, five dismissed workers protested against the firing on December 9, all from the Tokyo Metropolitan area. They filed a complaint to the Tokyo District Court on the invalid firing and the working regulations in Japan Post providing the age of retirement for temporary employees as being antisocial and invalid. After filing, they held a press conference (photo). Some have worked long since before the privatization of the postal services, and some others were older than 65 when hired by Japan Post. Most of them have not been informed of the working regulations that specify the age of retirement at 65. Their contracts were automatically renewed every six months even when they became older than 65. This unilateral firing is caused by “deficits” according to the management of Japan Post, but it is totally unacceptable. The Postal Workers Union has expressed its support for the group of the plaintiffs. The group will invite more dismissed workers.

The case is regarding Mr. Takuji Shiota, a tour conductor of the travel agency and the president of the HTS Local of the National Union of General Workers’ Tokyo Tobu, who was practically fired in 2009 by being suspended from the assignment for allegedly damaging the company's reputation with the interview he gave the "Weekly Kinyobi." The Hankyu Travel Support has been ordered 1) to lift the suspension and duly handle Mr. Shiota as the registered tour conductor and 2) to remunerate him with the estimated one-year salary he was supposed to have earned had he not been suspended. We, the NUGW Tokyo Tobu, urge the Hankyu Travel Support to seriously reflect their wrong doing that was condemned  in the present order, following the one of the Tokyo Labor Commission in February this year, and have Mr. Shiota back in his job immediately.

The teachers lost in the first and second trials of the suit to gain the annulment of reprimands, one-month and three-month suspension respectively, that they were given for refusing to stand up along the Kimigayo during school ceremonies in 2006, a memorial ceremony in January in the case of Ms. Kawarai and the graduation in March in the case of Ms. Nezu. Since pleading in the supreme court is held only when the judges are considering to reverse the lower court's ruling, it is likely that the supreme court will decide on the annulment of the disciplinary suspensions. The ruling is due on January 16, 2012. "I am delighted to have had the pleading in the supreme court after a series of unjust rulings. The issues of nuclear power plants and Kimigayo are rooted in a same problem existing in our society. We must go back to the basics now, " said Ms. Kawarai in the debriefing session after the pleading. Ms. Nezu said "It is now impossible to speak freely in educational institutions. I hope the forth-coming ruling will help change such a situation."

The venue was full of 133 participants, far more than the organizers expected in advance. (photo) In the event, the works of the labourer-cum-poet were vividly depicted through recitation of poems including "Cleaning Latrines" and "Tale of the Hell" and talks by musicians and other authorities. In her speech, Poet Itsuko Ishikawa named three major topics that Hamaguchi's poems dealt with, i.e. Asia-Pasific War, National Railway workers and peace movement. "Those on the war are particularly mighty: They describe his own experience including stabbing of war prisoners to death and deaths of fellow soldiers out of starvation and thus unveiled the reality of the so-called holy war. The war made  Hamaguchi, a man who previously was not at all interested in literature, into a poet. He was then raised by the poets' league of Japan National Railway," she said and urged the audience to hold tight to Hamaguchi's baton and hand on to the forth-coming generations the foolishness of the war.

Mr. Satoshi Kamata, a well-known reportage writer, addressed the rally: "We who aim for a world without nuclear power plants are now in the middle of a fierce battle with those planning to restart the reactors currently at rest. We must work hard through to the victory. Only small parts of business community, politicians, academics and mass media are making profits out of nuclear power. An overwhelming majority of the population are against it, but they are not yet well organized into a political power. The nuclear power has been promoted as a national policy and politics can change the direction. Trade unions and activists must facilitate the change by turning people's will into a political power and leading the fight to liberate ourselves from the rule by few, the class struggle to break down the monopoly. To this end, it is important to make the movement easier for everybody to participate. Stop the complacency of the conventional movement with union flags. Seek for a new style.

We plan to open a diner that is managed by people of the devastated region; that is to operate as a community center as well as providing meals; that is to become a space open to anyone; that is to act as a place for volunteers to gather in between their work in the open-kitchen, visits to temporary housing and help in reconstruction efforts; that is to support locals rebuild their lives; and that aims to lead to other diners like it. The first one is to be run by staff members of former evacuation center at Shizugawa High School in Minami-sanriku. We will work together slowly but surely just as we cleared the debris.

As I ran up the stairs from the subway station, people were listening into the speeches by Actor Taro Yamamoto. Following his speech was the song by a girl group. Police control around the subway entrance area was strict because of the ministry officials returning home after work, they said. Although the police kept tight guard, the number of participants continued to grow, leading to a complete human chain surrounding the METI building. With umbrellas and rain coats, we held the banners and candles, and made noise with instruments. Though in the cold rain, everyone was cheerful. Solidarity was confirmed as we held our hands tight. Raising our tightly-held hands, we chanted, “No More Nuclear Plants.” The voices of 1,300 echoed in the rainy night, when only the lights from the METI building it the human chain.

About 700 people gathered from Fukushima and nation-wide, with great enthusiasm. Participants wore buttons and held placards voicing their messages. SATO Sachiko made a strong appeal at the opening rally. “We, women in the Tohoku region, have kept and restrained our anger for seven months. And now we will take action and start a three day sit-in. Our children have been left in the sea of flames. As women and as mothers, we cannot allow this situation to continue. We owe it to our children to defend their future.  We will sit-in with this conviction in our hearts and spread our voices all over Japan and the world. Let’s take the first step here towards regaining true happiness.” At 11 a.m., a delegation of 30 people met with the Ministry’s officials and urged them to terminate the nuclear power energy policy. 107 women from Fukushima are expected to participate in the sit-in.

But we had to evacuate for the sake of our children.” The Chair of the Screening Committee, NOMI Yoshihisa, concluded the meeting by saying, “We will discuss and solve the compensation problems of both -those who voluntarily evacuated and those who are still remaining in Fukushima.” (YUMOTO Masanori)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/uniontube55?gl=JP&amp;hl=ja"&gt;Video: YouTube &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5HBE5ZeAtzE/TsIa-nlo9fI/AAAAAAAACl0/KtnW5UeHHzs/s1600/1020-11.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5HBE5ZeAtzE/TsIa-nlo9fI/AAAAAAAACl0/KtnW5UeHHzs/s400/1020-11.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5675128143521314290" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;「避難というだけで非国民扱い」～福島の親が「原賠審」で意見陳述&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10月20日、第15回原子力損害賠償紛争審査会（以下「原賠審」）が文科省で開催され、避難の権利を求めて福島県の2人の親が意見陳述した。家族を岡山県に避難させ、自らは福島に残り「子どもたちを放射能から守る福島ネットワーク」の代表として活動している中手聖一さん（福島市在住）は、「そもそも専門家の中でさえ意見がわかれる問題について、我々親が決断を下さなければならない状況に追い込まれているのです」と語り、福島県伊達市から札幌市に避難し、避難先で避難者自治組織を作って活動をしている宍戸隆子さん（写真）は、「はじめは福島から避難するというだけで、『非国民扱い』をされました。それでも避難したのは子どものためなのです」と語った。会のしめくくりに「現陪審」会長の能見義久氏は「自主避難の賠償と福島に残っている人の賠償の問題は、同時に検討し解決していきたい」と結んだ。（湯本雅典）・&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/uniontube55?gl=JP&amp;hl=ja"&gt;動画（YouTube）&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-3015415054801322315?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/3015415054801322315/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=3015415054801322315' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/3015415054801322315'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/3015415054801322315'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/11/called-traitor-for-evacuating-parents.html' title='Called traitor for evacuating Parents from Fukushima testify at the Damage Screening Committee'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Y7l-kmc9hn8/TsIa51Wg4ZI/AAAAAAAAClo/HpSvRRxfIUg/s72-c/1020-12.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-6396881404799238374</id><published>2011-11-15T16:42:00.002+09:00</published><updated>2011-11-15T16:45:24.743+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Hankyu Travel Support Local of the Tokyo Tobu Union'/><title type='text'>Victorious order from the Labor Commission Hankyu Travel Co. must bargain with the union</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JnT7IUb_0Ak/TsIYKIRQLUI/AAAAAAAAClc/oAMj96UWvU0/s1600/1021tobu.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 351px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JnT7IUb_0Ak/TsIYKIRQLUI/AAAAAAAAClc/oAMj96UWvU0/s400/1021tobu.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5675125042737851714" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In April 2008, the Hankyu Travel Support Local of the Tokyo Tobu Union filed an unfair labor practice claim against Hankyu Travel Co. for refusing to bargain with the union.

The title of the special feature was “What is TPP? You will be a prey to the eagle if you don’t know” and the guest speakers were journalist, ONO Kazuoki and doctor, HONDA Hiroshi. Ono pointed out that “it is dangerous to let the market rule everything.”  Showing charts, he said that “the people who are going to gain from TPP are senior bureaucrats and managers of big corporations and they are only 1% of the population. 99% of the people are going to lose and they are the unemployed, farmers, fisher folks, contingent workers, small and medium sized enterprises and people who want to defend their health and natural environment.” Doctor Honda said, “TPP would destroy the health care system which is already endangered. Only the rich would be able to receive good health care. Most of the people would be not able to get the health care they are getting now. TPP would become superior to domestic laws and the Constitution will disappear.” The staff members and audience in the studio were terrified by this remark.

Its theme was “Poverty exposed by the earthquake”. The rally consisted of three parts – a section of messages from disaster victims and disaster-stricken areas, thirteen workshops, and a symposium “What we need to survive”. All the messages were sufferings experienced by those whose relatives were killed by the tsunami, those who have been struggling to raise their children after having been fired from their workplaces, workers who are working at the troubled nuclear power plant with painful feelings, and former fishermen and farmers whose livelihoods were robbed from them. Lively discussions continued at the symposium about what to do next. Finally, all of approximately 600 participants stood up to “eradicate poverty” (photo).

Occupy the Planet!”. The rally was held at a park in the Roppongi district, central Tokyo. There were surprisingly a large number of security policemen and news reporters, so the action drew much attention. Many of approximately 200 participants freely expressed their feelings. A university student appealed loudly, “It’s time to stop economic growth that sacrifices and exploits someone. It’s time to stop pursuing money. I’m angry!”. The gathering was also shown in real time in the United States by Skype, while curry and rice were given to the participants free of charge and some were playing the drums there. The park became a liberation square. This action has proven the potential that the movement of the 99% will expand also in Japan.

One of the demonstrators, a 30-year old woman living in Tokyo, said, “I was a little nervous about participating in today’s march as many demonstrators were unlawfully arrested in the previous demonstrations. But I was able to express my feelings happily today without intimidation from the police”. Another demonstrator, a man in his 50s who was actively playing the flute, said, “I think we succeeded in expressing our wishes thanks to a small number of policemen, probably because of no loud music, so I suppose this march was similar to that in Europe”.

The party, organized by the Community Union National Network every year, was joined by 320 members from 80 affiliated unions nationwide (photo). The party was supposed to be held in Yamagata Prefecture in the Tohoku district, but its venue was changed to Kumamoto due to the Great East Japan Earthquake causing serious damage in the district. At the party, UEDA Jun, chief executive of the Rengo Kumamoto Union and host of the party, delivered an opening address, saying, “The earthquake destroyed supply chains and seriously affected the Japanese economy. Systems only to pursue efficiency, such as a just-in-time system, are now questioned. It is time for us to create a society of solidarity, which is resilient and friendly to each individual”.

Some of them were in the uniform of JAL pilots, others holding banners expressing their demands. The day marked the highlight of the trial with the court appearance of the Chairman, Kazuo Inamori who admitted, in a press conference in February, that the dismissal was unnecessary in light of the restructuring plan of the company. He however disappointed the courtroom audience by mentioning his earlier remark as "imprudent and regrettable." Satoshi Tokairin, one of the audience, described Chairman's testimony as "outrageous." "Inamori pretended to be a token representative of the JAL management with no actual role in the unlawful dismissal. He said he was unaware of the fact that the restructuring target had already been achieved by that time and put all the responsibilities on the receiver, " he said.&lt;br /&gt;In the inquiry of the day, the leader of the plaintiffs, Taeko Uchida, examined Inamori herself, but he replied to all her questions with phrases indicating lack of knowledge, involvement or memory. The audience was so appalled to the extent that they could not help laughing at times.  &lt;br /&gt;(By M)  &lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RQtgk_ZzpAs/Tpe8SmZaB3I/AAAAAAAAChQ/lf0ZYZhP5qs/s1600/0930-jal2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 299px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RQtgk_ZzpAs/Tpe8SmZaB3I/AAAAAAAAChQ/lf0ZYZhP5qs/s400/0930-jal2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5663202084172466034" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;「知らぬ存ぜぬ」を繰り返す稲盛会長～JAL整理解雇裁判、最大の山場に&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9月30日、東京地裁前は朝から「JAL不当解雇撤回」の桃太郎旗が林立し、パイロット姿の原告団と支援者で賑わった（写真）。この裁判は、昨年末に165名が整理解雇された事件。この日はJAL稲盛会長の証人尋問で最大の山場を迎えた。稲盛会長は2月の会見で「経営上、解雇は必要なかった」と明言しており、証言に注目が集まった。しかし稲盛会長は「軽率な発言で反省している」と述べたのみ。傍聴した東海林智さんは「ひどい。“何の責任もないお飾り”と自分を演出していた。人員削減目標を達成していたことについても “知らなかった。管財人が決めたこと”を連発していた」。また内田妙子原告団長が尋問に立ち、組合との話し合いの約束を破り続けた稲盛氏に鋭く迫った。これに対し稲盛会長は「記憶にない、覚えていない、知りません」を繰り返すだけ。このJAL経営最高責任者の見苦しい姿に、傍聴席からは失笑が漏れた。（M）&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-7251514959907417594?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/7251514959907417594/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=7251514959907417594' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/7251514959907417594'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/7251514959907417594'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/10/inamori-in-court-backs-off-from-earlier.html' title='Inamori in Court, Backs off from Earlier Statement: the JAL Restructuring Case'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S7yVSwoBHh8/Tpe8NVV_Z3I/AAAAAAAAChE/UD-ClwqIbTY/s72-c/0930-jal1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-6494217964047790781</id><published>2011-10-14T13:31:00.004+09:00</published><updated>2011-10-14T13:34:57.594+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Postal Workers’Union'/><title type='text'>Japan Post Plans to Dismiss 14000 Non-regular Workers Nationwide: Union Protest by Sit-in</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QT4u_8y_U_Y/Tpe7NaPePQI/AAAAAAAACgs/g1kZbnbNhT0/s1600/0928-yusei1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 299px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QT4u_8y_U_Y/Tpe7NaPePQI/AAAAAAAACgs/g1kZbnbNhT0/s400/0928-yusei1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5663200895498599682" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Members of the Postal Workers’Union conducted a sit-in protest in front of the head office of Japan Post on 27 and 28 September. The protest was against the dismissal of 14000 non-regular workers aged over 65 scheduled for the end of the month.&lt;br /&gt;"It is absolutely unacceptable that the company unilaterally made it possible for them to dismiss non-regular workers of certain ages simply by manipulating the employment regulations. Like myself, people of these ages are often playing leading roles among the employees of the sections they belong to. The present decision has taken no consideration of such circumstances in our work places," said outraged Tadanori Fukao (left in the photo), a telephone operator at a call-center. Ryoko Niwa (right in the photo), a delivery driver, criticized JP harshly. "Four colleagues are to be dismissed in my section and it will be impossible for the remaining staff to process the same amount of workload. On the other hand, the same jobs are offered in the employment service office. This is ridiculous! The massive dismissal will disrupt the work at post offices and inevitably result in worsened service."&lt;br /&gt;Among 14000 workers to be dismissed, 32 belong to the Postal Workers’Union.

The participants,including many teachers and students, were driven by mounting concerns surrounding the prefectural government's aggressive move toward enactment of education-related ordinances that reflect nationalistic view of the right-wing governor, Toru Hashimoto. In the opening speech of the rally, Philosopher Tetsuya Takahashi severely criticized the proposed ordinance and Hashimoto himself. "It should be called 'The Basic Ordinance for Destruction of Education.'" "The governor's vision of Osaka government is that of the imperial system whereby the governor is the emperor." &lt;br /&gt;Following Takahashi's speech, teachers struggling under similar situations in other prefectures made short speeches of solidarity. Among them was Kimiko Nezu, an ex-teacher from Tokyo who continued defiance of Kimigayo through to the retirement of this year despite three times of six-month suspension. She encouraged fellow teachers to keep to their belief and not to give in. Masaki Yumoto, a university student one of whose parents is non-Japanese national, raised an issue for the protest movement while commenting critically on the proposed ordinance. "It would coerce children of non-Japanese nationalities to give away with their own identities. This is why I feel against it. I also feel that the protest movement has yet to involve younger generations. I urge the participants to consider what each of you can do to reach out to the youth."    &lt;br /&gt;The rally was webcast by Labornet TV.  &lt;br /&gt;(By Jo Kimura, Labornet Reporter based in Kansai Area) *Photo: The venue, Thirty Hall in Daito-shi, Osaka&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;「これは教育破壊条例」と高橋哲哉さん～「君が代」強制大阪府条例はいらん！全国集会に800人&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;橋下府政の「君が代強制条例」「教育基本条例案」で揺れる大阪で、9月24日「君が代」強制大阪府条例はいらん！全国集会が開催された。全国から橋下府政の強制条例に危機感を抱く教育関係者、一般市民、学生ら約800名が集まった。冒頭、哲学者の高橋哲哉氏は、「橋下知事の教育基本条例案は『教育破壊基本条例』というべき」「知事を天皇にした天皇制ともいえる府政を作ろうとしている」と発言。各地の教育現場で闘う教職員の発言があり、都教委から停職6ヶ月を3度受けながら、今年の定年退職まで君が代不起立を貫いた根津公子さんは、「自分自身の思いを曲げず、信念に忠実にいて」と、各地の闘う教職員にエールをおくった。外国籍の親を持つ大学生の由本雅樹さんは、ナショナリティの強制となる条例案に批判を感じるが、若い世代とのつながりがまだ少ない。出会いを作るために何が出来るか、参加者の一人一人が考えてほしい、と問題提起した。レイバーネットTVが集会全体をインターネット中継した。（関西報道部ライター・木村ジョウ）＊写真＝会場の大東市サーティホール&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-5600835532463030519?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/5600835532463030519/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=5600835532463030519' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/5600835532463030519'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/5600835532463030519'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/10/philosopher-labels-proposed-ordinance.html' title='Philosopher Labels Proposed Ordinance as &apos;Fatal to Education&apos;: 800 Rally against Imposition of Kimigayo in Osaka'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-asNSfAQ0vRA/Tpe5J5hMt4I/AAAAAAAACgI/p7FfDTxRLoU/s72-c/0924-osaka1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-2064056931589041725</id><published>2011-10-14T12:40:00.003+09:00</published><updated>2011-10-14T12:53:08.365+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Nothing Is More Valuable than Life!: 60,000 Participate Japan's Largest Ever Anti-nuclear Rally</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-GUNYNsxqDOA/TpevkE62lJI/AAAAAAAACfw/6T6szalcbzw/s1600/0919-meiji1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 150px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-GUNYNsxqDOA/TpevkE62lJI/AAAAAAAACfw/6T6szalcbzw/s400/0919-meiji1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5663188090772427922" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On 19 September, Meiji Park in Tokyo was filled with people and their calls for abolishment of nuclear power plants. Organized workers and other citizens belonging to all sorts of groups as well as individuals not affiliated with any particular organizations gathered together, expressing their desires for nuclear-free world on banners and sign boards. "Fukushima is still much contaminated with radiation. The status is far from 'under controll.' We will by no means allow other nuclear plants to resume operation. There is noting more valuable than the life!" Core promoters cried out angrily and the crowd responded with enthusiastic applaud. &lt;br /&gt;The rally was followed by a demonstration march in three routes. Though the march lasted for for more than four hours, the participants were cheerful. They seemed to be delighted, empowered by the fact that as many as sixty thousand people came together.&lt;br /&gt;The day certainly marked a historic step in the movement toward the nuclear-free world.

 We, Suppor Group for TMPCWA in Japan,, launched from last October 9 thru 12 a series of concerted concurrent joint action with TMPCWA against Toyota, both in Japan and the Philippines, seeking for the solution of a 11-year longstanding struggle against a mass dismissal.&lt;br /&gt; Inviting two union members representing TMPCWA (Union Vice President Wenny and Union Member Rowell) to Japan, we, supporters from Kanto Area went over by bus to the place in front of Midland Square by Nagoya Station of JR (Japan Railway), namely in front of toyota Aichi Headquarters to make, together with the local supporters in Aichi Area, PR activities to citizens of Nagoya City, and after that held a solidarity exchange meeting at Toyoda City Industrail and cultural Xenter.&lt;br /&gt; The next day, from early morning, around Toyota Headquarters and Plant, we circulated to Toyota workers showing up for their daily job a paper napkin packet combined with a bill appealing their support and also made a request to the Headquarters. As a quite remarkable fact indeed, we had astrong impression that the workers coming their way to the company all looked so tired and somber as if they had had no human feelings.&lt;br /&gt; On the other hand, in the main site, the Philippines, on October 10, bothe the dismissed members and the inside members currently working at Toyota plant of TMPCWA, together with a number of their supporters and member workers from other unions who came to join for cooperation,  conducted a series of protest actions before Department of Labor and employment (DOLE), Department of Justice (DOJ), Japanese Embassy, etc. The joint actions both in Japan the Philippines were sucessfully finished thanks to the solidarity of workers.&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-aZLtuixNjuo/TpeDWQj86CI/AAAAAAAACfk/J8OxA30UigY/s1600/CWA01.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-aZLtuixNjuo/TpeDWQj86CI/AAAAAAAACfk/J8OxA30UigY/s400/CWA01.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5663139474867808290" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt; フィリピントヨタ労組、現地と日本でトヨタ共同行動を貫徹&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;　私たちフィリピントヨタ労組を支援する会は10月９日から12日に掛けて、11年にも及ぶフィリピントヨタ労組（TMPCWA）の解雇闘争の解決を求めて、フィリピンと日本での同時共同行動に取り組んだ。&lt;br /&gt;　フィリピントヨタ労組の代表2名（ウェニー副委員長とロウウェル組合員）を日本に招き、10月9日には関東からの支援者たちがバスでJR名古屋駅前ミットランドスクエアービル前（トヨタ名古屋本社）に行き、地元愛知の支援者たちとともに名古屋市民に情宣活動を行い、その後豊田市産業文化センターにて連帯交流集会を開催した。&lt;br /&gt;　翌10月10日には早朝からトヨタ本社工場周辺で通勤してくるトヨタ労働者たちにティッシュ入り支援要請チラシを配布し、同時に愛知本社への申入れを行った。通勤してくるトヨタ社員たちが一様に疲れたような全く感情が見えない暗い姿であったことが深く印象に残った。&lt;br /&gt; 　一方、フィリピン現地では10月10日、フィリピントヨタ労組の解雇者たち及び現役の組合員たち更には支援の他労組の組合員たちが多数結集し、フィリピン雇用労働省、法務省、日本大使館等々での抗議行動を展開した。日比両国での同時共同行動は労働者の国際連帯により成功裏に終わった。&lt;br /&gt;　また、フィリピンからの代表者たちが帰国する前日の10月12日にもトヨタ東京本社に対しても申入れ行動と社前集会を行った。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-1380913813523593077?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/1380913813523593077/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=1380913813523593077' title='48 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/1380913813523593077'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/1380913813523593077'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/10/philippine-toyota-union-tmpcwa-suceeded.html' title='Philippine Toyota Union (TMPCWA) Suceeded in Launching Joint Action Both at the main struggle site, the Philippines, and in Japan'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FwElCbyehMM/TpeDM812zHI/AAAAAAAACfY/9lGKHWi0iWM/s72-c/tmpcwa04.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>48</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-1223921599716643672</id><published>2011-10-03T15:20:00.005+09:00</published><updated>2011-10-04T08:57:20.064+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Hankyu Travel Support Co.'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='National Union of General Workers Tokyo Tobu'/><title type='text'>Tokyo High Court Penalizes Travel Company for Failing to Pay Overtime Work</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hvBWd_f6JYo/TolVib2fidI/AAAAAAAACac/3V16rPnfQho/s1600/0915tobu2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 276px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hvBWd_f6JYo/TolVib2fidI/AAAAAAAACac/3V16rPnfQho/s400/0915tobu2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5659148456847968722" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt; National Union of General Workers, Tokyo Tobu, won a lawsuit against Hankyu Travel Support Co. for failing to pay overtime work.

The court dismissed the company’s claim that the overtime hours were included in the salary because it was difficult to calculate the hours. The court ordered the defendant to pay 513,730 yen unpaid and an equivalent amount for penalty.&lt;br /&gt; At the press conference held at the labor ministry, the plaintiff, Ms. Toyoda, said she hoped the decision would help improve working conditions of her colleagues in the industry. “I am really happy that the court understood the working conditions of travel guides,” she said. “I will try to improve the working conditions of travel guides in solidarity with others.” (By Sugano, NUGW Tokyo Tobu) *Photo: Toyoda and lawyers in front of the court house after the verdict&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;東京高裁も「偽装みなし労働」を断罪～阪急トラベルサポートの不払い残業代請求訴訟&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;　9月14日、東京東部労組HTS（阪急トラベルサポート）支部が闘っている「偽装みなし労働」撤廃のための不払い残業代請求裁判控訴審の判決があり、1審に続き、組合側完全勝利判決をかちとりました。高裁は、1審に続き、「添乗員の労働時間算定は可能」と明確に判断し、「事業場外みなし労働」の適用を否定。未払い残業代51万3730円の支払いを命じると共に、同額の付加金（ペナルティ）の支払いも命じました。組合はこの勝利判決を受け、弁護団とともに厚労省記者クラブで記者会見を行いました。その席で原告の豊田さんは「添乗員の業務の実態を分かってもらった判決でとても嬉しい。この判決をステップに、力をあわせてがんばる。これを期に業界全体が変わってほしい」と訴えました。（東部労組・菅野） 　＊写真＝喜びの当該労働者と弁護団（裁判所前）&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-1223921599716643672?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/1223921599716643672/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=1223921599716643672' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/1223921599716643672'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/1223921599716643672'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/10/tokyo-high-court-penalizes-travel.html' title='Tokyo High Court Penalizes Travel Company for Failing to Pay Overtime Work'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hvBWd_f6JYo/TolVib2fidI/AAAAAAAACac/3V16rPnfQho/s72-c/0915tobu2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-5970027295499518520</id><published>2011-10-03T15:15:00.005+09:00</published><updated>2011-10-04T08:58:17.084+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Seiichi Nakate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fukushima network to protect children from radiation'/><title type='text'>Parents Demand GOVT Set Up ‘Evacuation Zone by Choice’</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-eVT_FWWbhSk/TolTTUVDiMI/AAAAAAAACaE/YgFA0-3F5-U/s1600/c-fukusim_a.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-eVT_FWWbhSk/TolTTUVDiMI/AAAAAAAACaE/YgFA0-3F5-U/s400/c-fukusim_a.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5659145998107379906" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Seiichi Nakate (photo) of a Fukushima network to protect children from radiation talked about “evacuation zone by choice” at an event held on Sept. 11, half a year after the explosion at the TEPCO plant. The “evacuation zone by choice,” which is proposed by Children of Fukushima, is asking the local governments to financially support residents wishing to evacuate from this zone. The government is asked to guarantee the means of evacuation, as well as compensate the cost. “It’s not too late yet,” Nakate said. “The government should set up the evacuation zone by choice at an earlier date. This will surely save more lives.” (By Masanori Yumoto), See &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsKDtJsffls"&gt;video on YouTube&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-L6iYLwL8xZI/TolTYUoob-I/AAAAAAAACaM/vC2XTE_77cU/s1600/c-fukusima_b.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-L6iYLwL8xZI/TolTYUoob-I/AAAAAAAACaM/vC2XTE_77cU/s400/c-fukusima_b.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5659146084088836066" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;一刻もはやく「選択的避難区域」の設定を！～「子ども福島」の中手聖一さん&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;　福島原発事故から半年経った9月11日、福島市内で「9・11福島アクション」が開催され、そのプログラムの一つの「テーブルトーク」で、「子どもたちを放射能から守る福島ネットワーク（略称・子ども福島）」代表中手聖一さん（写真）が「子ども福島」が提唱する「選択的避難区域」について語った。「選択的避難区域」の設定とは、その区域の住民が避難を希望した場合、行政が避難のための費用、方法等を保証し賠償もするという仕組みである。中手さんは、「まだ間に合う。今からでも『選択的避難区域の設定』を一刻もはやく行うべきだ。そうすれば助かる命が増えるはずだ」と語った。（湯本雅典） ・&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsKDtJsffls"&gt;動画（YouTube）&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-5970027295499518520?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/5970027295499518520/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=5970027295499518520' title='54 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/5970027295499518520'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/5970027295499518520'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/10/parents-demand-govt-set-up-evacuation.html' title='Parents Demand GOVT Set Up ‘Evacuation Zone by Choice’'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-eVT_FWWbhSk/TolTTUVDiMI/AAAAAAAACaE/YgFA0-3F5-U/s72-c/c-fukusim_a.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>54</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-882140081949501076</id><published>2011-10-03T15:06:00.005+09:00</published><updated>2011-10-04T08:55:33.450+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo Electric Power Co.'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nuclear Power Plants'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kojin Karatani'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='human chain'/><title type='text'>‘We can Change Society by Demonstration’ ~ Voices against Nuclear Power Plants</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-t6kNIHFHMSs/TolRHPO7_II/AAAAAAAACZ0/iWvwAPRky9k/s1600/0911-a.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 299px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-t6kNIHFHMSs/TolRHPO7_II/AAAAAAAACZ0/iWvwAPRky9k/s400/0911-a.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5659143591557856386" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actions against nuclear power plants were carried out at three locations simultaneously in Tokyo on Sept. 11. Some 2,000 people led the one to Tokyo Electric Power Co. and Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. By 3:40 p.m., they surrounded the ministry building with a human chain. Two young participants began hunger strike in protest against nuclear power plants at 5 p.m. In the meantime, a rally blasting loud music in Shinjuku faced harsh restrictions from the police, and about 10 demonstrators were arrested. However, the courtyard in front of Shinjuku Station was packed with protestors around 6 p.m. Kojin Karatani spoke at the rally. “People often ask me if we can really change the world by demonstrations,” he began his speech. “’But of course,’ I always tell them. Why? Because by demonstration, we can create a society where we can take it out onto the streets. Before March, I don’t think there is any demonstration that we can call, ‘demonstration,” except for ones in Okinawa. Now we see more than 100 demonstrations across the nation. The Japanese society has changed a bit.” His speech was welcomed by loud applaud.

Reports say that the worst is over since the recovery of Tohoku Shinkansen and Tohoku Line. However, some along the Pacific coast, including JR Hachinohe, Yamada, Ofunato, Kesennuma, Ishinomaki, Joban and Sanriku Tetsudo Railways, have no prospect of repair or recovery. “It may be a waste to repair the track because we don’t know how the towns are going to be reconstructed,” Japan Railway East officials said. True. But while other transport systems, such as roads and docks, are recovering by the day, railroad services that are basic infrastructure are left untouched. The railways that run through Tohoku like veins were said to be costly, a losing business, and facing a change in ownership to avoid complete closure. The central government and Japan Railways imposed heavy burden on passengers and local governments. And they are hoping to completely shut down these train services, taking advantage of the disaster.

The action was the first of the string of actions for the September Prefectural Assembly Meetings and heralded the start of the Osaka Fall Action.&lt;br /&gt;( Osaka Education Amalgamated Union)&lt;br /&gt;　&lt;a href="http://www.ewaosaka.org/jp/index.html"&gt; Osaka Education Amalgamated Union Website&lt;/a&gt;: &lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt; 「君が代」条例も橋下もいらない！～大阪「秋の陣」いよいよスタート&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8月22日、大阪府庁前に「『君が代』条例はいらない！」「橋下もいらない！」のシュプレヒコールが鳴り響いた。全国から結集した教育労働者の府庁包囲デモが、大阪の官庁街で行われたのである。参加者は、10本以上の組合旗を林立させ、宣伝カーの先導で、「君が代」強制条例反対！と書かれた大阪教育合同労組制作のうちわを掲げながら、府庁・府教委周辺をデモ行進した。約30分と短いデモだったが、「君が代」不起立者への免職処分を含む「教育基本条例案」「職員基本条例案」に反対する訴えが大阪の官庁街に鳴り響いた。この行動は、9月府議会に向けた大阪での街頭行動のトップを切るものとして、意気高く行われ、大阪「秋の陣」がいよいよスタートした。（大阪教育合同労働組合）・&lt;a href="http://www.ewaosaka.org/jp/index.html"&gt;教育合同労組HP&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-5211635531548157240?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/5211635531548157240/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=5211635531548157240' title='40 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/5211635531548157240'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/5211635531548157240'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/09/down-with-kimigayo-ordinance-down-with.html' title='Down with Kimigayo Ordinance!

The meeting was full with participants and reporters and four children who came from Fukushima for the meeting raised direct questions to the 10 government officials. The children asked, “The question of de-contamination was raised in April, and it is already August but nothing has been done. You say you are doing you best, but what have you been doing actually?” The young bureaucrats answered, “The national government, prefectural and local governments, all have their difficult situation.

HAN Hong-goo from South Korea suggested that the administration of President LEE Myung-bak has worked toward building more nuclear power plants as being safe in the country and has an ambition to secure a nuclear weapon behind his promotion of nuclear power. TAKAHASHI Tetsuya, professor of the University of Tokyo and philosopher, said, “The representatives from all the regions agreed to anti-nukes. Nukes and Yasukuni are systems to sacrifice communities and people for national interests. They have no hope for us. It is time for us to build a society in which nobody is sacrificed”. After the gathering, the participants marched the street with candles in hands in central Tokyo, saying, “No Yasukuni or Nukes!” in defiance of harassment of nationalists.

They sang a song to call the Osaka Governor Hashimoto a “fascist” and appealed, “Down with authoritarianism of Governor Hashimoto and his party, the Osaka Restoration Association” and “Stop political intervention into education” (photo). 42 signed against the bill only in less than an hour, many of whom were junior high school and high school students who do not have a right to vote now but will be affected by the bill if it is passed. Some of them were youths in their 20s. Some of the participants in the campaign said, “I thought our appeal would be ignored, but people understood and signed after I explained the details carefully” and “Young people were very interested in this issue. I would like to continue this campaign”.

There are four highly contaminated spots equivalent to “Chernobyl Zone 3”, whose radioactive level is 185,000 to 555,000Bq/m2 so as to entitle a right to relocate to anyone who wishes to do so. There are 29 less contaminated spots equivalent to “Chernobyl Zone 4”, whose radioactive level is 37,000 to 185,000Bq/m2, in which residents are not required to evacuate but are subjected to strict health monitoring. The most shocking results were found in Misato City, Saitama Prefecture. The city has been known as a “hot spot” due to its high air dose rate and had a surprisingly high level of radiation, 919,100Bq/m2. This is equivalent to “Chernobyl Zone 2”, whose radioactive level is 550,000 to 1,480,000Bq/m2 so as to recommend all residents to evacuate”.

The venue of the ceremony was filled with 128 audiences. Mr. Fukiage said, “It is still hard for us to believe that we lost our son who entered a public company on the first section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. We would like to fight out the struggle against karoshi. We have to make it a thing of the past”. Ms. Fukiage commented, “Our son of 186cm and 96kg passed away suddenly.

Recently, I am interested in them again probably because the nuclear disaster in Fukushima overlaps with the bomb. “Barefoot Gen’s Hiroshima”, directed by ISHIDA Yuko, is a documentary film with a motif of a cartoon “Barefoot Gen” drawn by NAKAZAWA Keiji, which depicts his experience as a survivor of the atomic bomb dropped on the city when he was six. I had not seen any of animated or live-action films of the cartoon at all, or even read the original cartoon until I saw the film. However, I was fascinated with the narrative of Mr. Nakazawa about his experience of the bombing in this film. Then, I read the original cartoon and watched the animated and live-action films, and saw “Barefoot Gen’s Hiroshima” again. Then, I found the story of “Gen” represent Mr. Nakazawa’s experience even in the form of a fiction. Still, his own narrative was more realistic and moving.

The action week, planned for September 11-19, is to commemorate the sixth-month time since the Great East Japan Earthquake and the disaster of the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant. In the appeal, the committee urges people's organizations working in citizen's rights, environment protection and labor issues to show their determinations to build the society free of nuclear power plants and demand the government to suspend the operation of nuclear power plants, take countermeasures against the radiation, and choose renewable energies for central sources of power, by organizing various events including rallies, parades, lectures and seminars. In Tokyo, two events have so far been planned for the week, i.e. the Be-in Tokyo 9.11 to be held in the Meiji Koen Park on September 11 and the Ten Million People's Action Parade also to be held in the Meiji Koen Park on September 19.  The Goodbye to Nuclear Power Plants Ten Million Signatures, the signature campaign to achieve denuclearization and build a society that is powered mainly with natural energies, has also been kicked off.

The rally was to denounce two unjust rulings regarding coercion of the controversial national anthem Kimigayo at schools that were accounced by the supreme court in June and July this year and to aim at repealing of the recently-enacted ordinance of Osaka Prefecture that demands teachers of prefectural schools to stand up during the performance of Kimigayo. Since the enactment of the ordinace on June 3, the Hinomaru flags have been put up all the time at prefectural schools in Osaka. The Osaka Governor Toru Hashimoto is eager to realize another coercive ordinance during the September session of Prefectural Assembly that allow the education board to dismiss teachers who disobeyed the standing-up ordinance for three times. "Hashimoto says that education is 20 thousand percent of coertion. He doesn't only impose Hinomaru and Kimigayo on perfectural schools but even aims for establishing a scheme of public education under which elected politicians decide policies and substances and schools are just to manage the implementation. Such a scheme will enable politicians to freely intervene into public education", says Hiroyuki Imae of the Hot-line against Coercion of Hinomaru and Kimigayo.

Three out of seven teachers who refused to stand up while Kimigayo was played during the graduation or the entrance ceremonies attended the "training". The other four resigned by the time of "training." Approximately 100 people gathered in front the training center of the TMEB, the venue of the "training," to protest to it and support the punished teachers. A group of lawyers attempted to submit a letter to the TMEB that denounces the notice, but the TMEB refused to receive it without giving reasons. In the past, they received similar letters for six times. It is suspected that their move this time was inspired by the supreme court's rulings of June and July that concluded the TMEB's notice was constitutional. One of the teachers who did not stand along with Kimigayo during the entrance ceremony said after the "training" that s/he had always refused to stand up, but was never condemned before. "I am not ashamed," said s/he. "Though the TMEB tried to discipline me on charge of negligence on duty, there is no reason why I should be reproached."

The two Japanese unions have lost some members due to the earthquake and tsunami disasters that hit the north-eastern region of Japan on March 11. "Though some members wanted to visit the disaster-hit region to participate in the relief operations, it seemed difficult for us to do so. Therefore, we decided to extend support in the form of donations instead," said the ILWU president Robert McEllrath as he conveyed condolences to members of the branch union of Zen Kowan in Onahama, Fukushima Prefecture. They visited the Onahama Port that sagged more than one meter and saw local fishermen who were forced to give up fishing due partly to the contamination of sea water with radiation. "We saw TV reports and photos on papers before we came and thought we were well aware of the intensity of the damages caused by the disasters. However, we are overwhelmed with dismay now by learning firsthand how people's lives were shuttered with the disasters," said the ILWU vice president Ray Familathe after the visit.

More than 50 days have passed, but she can’t yet make any decision as to whether she can even look for a job or rent an apartment. &lt;br /&gt;“We are in limbo; we can’t move forward,” she said. “People in Kazo City are even offering some farmland, but it takes time to get a feel for the new soil and new land before we can grow anything.” By Yumi Eto *Photo: Actor Toshiyuki Nishida, a native of Koriyama City, Fukushima Prefecture, encourages evacuees.&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;「宙ぶらりんのままじゃ前に進めぬ」～原発避難者・双葉町の人々の今&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;「独身で、ひとりでここに移ってきたの。ずっと原発には反対だった。でもそれを口にしたら変わり者扱いされて。東電で働いてきた人たちの言うことはおかしいよ。ここには仕方なくいる。福島に戻っても放射能、消えないでしょ。この近くにアパートかりるって言ったって、補償が出るかどうかもわからないし。仕事もしないで、何もしてないように見えるでしょ。でも、どこまで補償が出るかが決まらないから、家を借りていいのか仕事を見つけていいのかわからない。宙ぶらりんのままでは前に進めないのよ。加須市では畑を貸すよと言ってくれる人もいるようだけど、土地のクセがわかるまでには時間がかかるしね」。埼玉・加須市の旧騎西（きさい）高校での集団避難生活も、五十日を迎えました。四月から五月にかけてのレポートです。（江東拓美） 　＊写真＝激励にきた郡山出身の西田敏行さん&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-2209461589840808612?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/2209461589840808612/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=2209461589840808612' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/2209461589840808612'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/2209461589840808612'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/07/we-are-in-limbo-we-cant-move-forward.html' title='‘We Are in Limbo; We Can’t Move Forward:’ Evacuees of Nuke Plant Disaster from Futaba'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/--BzUA7-1xSU/TjJtA8DzdzI/AAAAAAAACUU/APES7bv7Z54/s72-c/0711-08.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-5495989305303711523</id><published>2011-07-29T17:11:00.005+09:00</published><updated>2011-07-29T17:17:10.107+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Chikako Nishiyama'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Takashi Uesugi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='LaborNet TV'/><title type='text'>Labornet TV ‘Nuclear Plant Disaster and Media Reports - Censorship Manifested</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YLSoFe6ZC7o/TjJrclvdlsI/AAAAAAAACUE/uRCkmtM2BN0/s1600/0707-01.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 299px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YLSoFe6ZC7o/TjJrclvdlsI/AAAAAAAACUE/uRCkmtM2BN0/s400/0707-01.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634684222705604290" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Journalist Takashi Uesugi spoke live on Labornet TV on July 7 of the intention of the government, TEPCO and media companies to conceal and control information at the time of nuclear power plant explosion and radiation contamination.&lt;br /&gt;Uesugi explained on air how independent journalists pursued their right to know at TEPCO press conferences ever since March 11 and eventually led the company to talk especially by broadcasting the press conferences live. With their effort, he said that viewers learned how truth can be concealed or revealed. &lt;br /&gt;Chikako Nishiyama, a town council woman from Kawachi, Fukushima Prefecture, spoke also on Labornet TV of how she was exposed to radiation because she didn’t have enough information on how to respond to nuclear plant explosion.&lt;br /&gt;“I was exposed to radiation because I couldn’t get any information from mainstream media reports or the local government,” Nishiyama said. “I finally found useful information on the internet whereby I was able to decide what’s best to do at the time. I can’t imagine a life without internet any more.” The total viewers of July 7 program on Labornet TV reached 2,400. By M.

The rally held in Tokyo’s Meiji Park was called for by Ikuro Anzai, Tetsuya Iida, Etsuko Ichihara, Toshie Negishi, Shuntaro Hida, Reiko Yukawa, as well as Actress Sayuri Yoshinaga. More than 70 farmers from Japan Family Farmers Movement “Nominren” of Fukushima Prefecture joined and called for support. Japan Communist Party Chairman Kazuo Shii addressed to the rally before the message from Social Democratic Party of Japan Chair Mizuho Fukushima was read out.

The five seats allocated for reporters remained unoccupied on July 1.&lt;br /&gt;“The court order to leave the courtroom does not involve general public; therefore, it should not be treated as obstruction of public duties even if I, Shoji Otaka, ignored the order,” Otaka insisted. “It does not make sense to order me not to bring a mobile phone with a camera when others are permitted. I resisted because a bunch of court guards dragged me out after the court ordered me to leave. I had no mobile phones but I had no time to speak in defense.” Otaka continued to say that his human right was violated by the court by confining him for an extended period because the court feared that he would inform the public of what the court really does. The hearing ended up proving a platform for Otaka to reveal the court’s false accusation. By Johnny H.

The TEPCO Workers Union refused to meet the citizens group. Denryoku-soren set three conditions for the meeting; 1, six members only; 2, no coverage by mass media; 3, no photos and no recording. The visiting group was welcomed by 10 union staff members who guarded the entrance and the reception by Uchida Atsushi, Secretary General of the Union was high-handed. “There is no feasible cheap and stable alternative energy that can replace nuclear power,” Uchida said. “We have to concentrate on settling the crisis at Fukushima now. As for the future of nuclear energy, we are observing the government’s decisions closely.” He disclaimed his responsibility for the accident and refused to change the union’s position of promoting nuclear energy. He seemed displeased with the request from the group and abruptly ended the meeting saying, “We are not a social organization and not in a position receive such a request. Don’t come again.” (M)&lt;br /&gt;Photo: MATSUMOTO Chie, confronted by union staff, asks for interview. &lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;電力総連、原発推進の姿勢変わらず～市民団体に高飛車な対応&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;「福島原発事故緊急会議」プロジェクトのメンバー約40名が、6月29日、東京田町にある東電労組・電力総連に対して「原発推進方針の撤回・被曝労働者の支援」などを求める要請行動を行なった。東電労組は門前払いで一切対応を拒否した。電力総連は、「代表6名にしぼること、マスコミの取材拒否、カメラ・録音は不可」という条件を付けてきた。建物入り口を10人弱の職員がガードする異常な対応で、話し合いも内田事務局長の高飛車な態度が目立った。内田氏は「原発に代わる安価で安定したエネルギーで、説得力のある話はない。とにかく今は事故の収束が第一。あとは政府の判断を注視する」と述べ、自らの主体的責任は放棄し、原発推進の姿勢は変わらなかった。また申入れされたことが極めて不愉快な様子で、「私たちは社会的団体ではない。申入れを受ける立場ではない。もう来ないでほしい」と最後は一方的に席を立ってしまった。（М） 　＊写真＝職員のバリケードに抗議し取材許可を求める松元ちえさん（手前）&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-947644860690931379?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/947644860690931379/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=947644860690931379' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/947644860690931379'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/947644860690931379'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/07/power-industry-union-sticks-to-pro.html' title='Power Industry Union sticks to pro-nukes position;  Dismisses concerns of citizens’ group'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Zhe-BkaWD3s/ThryqCPveyI/AAAAAAAACTc/x1EQEzULwaY/s72-c/0629-01.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-5050563482644088029</id><published>2011-07-11T21:49:00.003+09:00</published><updated>2011-07-11T21:53:50.650+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='no nukes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='TEPCO'/><title type='text'>Cries for No Nukes prevail as 9,200 gather at TEPCO stockholders meeting</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HSjg9ZhnBpc/ThrxmmHA25I/AAAAAAAACTM/k3cU3f5Ygbw/s1600/0628-01.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 299px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HSjg9ZhnBpc/ThrxmmHA25I/AAAAAAAACTM/k3cU3f5Ygbw/s400/0628-01.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628076329720142738" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A general meeting of Stockholders of TEPCO was held on June 28 at the Park Tower Tokyo Hotel in Shiba-kouen, Tokyo. The meeting started at 10am, but the vicinity was crowded from 9am with queueing stockholders, news reporters, and security guards. A record high of 9,200 stockholders attended the meeting; the utility company had to prepare four more meeting rooms to accommodate them. Many stockholders raised their voices to ask each director to take responsibility for the nuclear accident. Insincere answers from the directors were greeted with roars of anger. 402 stockholders put forward a motion to abandon nuclear power which was well received from the floor, with an overwhelming cry of “No Nukes!” when the motion was voted. The chair, Katsumata, ruled that the motion failed, stating that he had letters of attorney from two major stockholders. The exceptionally long meeting -- well over 6 hours -- made clear that support for “no nukes” was spreading among the general investors.

In the morning  500 participants met to gather information and talk about their anxieties. It was a great success. From 1:30 pm, a rally was held in front of the Prefectural government office, succeeded by the handkerchief parade. 1000 people from throughout and Fukushima Prefecture and other prefectures gathered in spite of the heavy rain. The organizer of the rally, SASAKI Keiko said, “The responsibility of the Governor, SATO Yuhei, is heavy. So, it’s important to raise our voices in front of the Prefectural Government office.” AOKI Kazumasa from the Group Concerned about the Decrepit Fukushima Power Plant said, “ We are going to Tokyo on June 30 to talk directly with the Nuclear Emergency Response Headquarters and ask the government for concrete measures to promote evacuation.” (YUMOTO Masanori)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/uniontube55?gl=JP&amp;hl=ja "&gt;You Tube:&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Mkw3aG_TD30/Thrwa5ryztI/AAAAAAAACTE/okfDYXe90Kg/s1600/0626-12.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Mkw3aG_TD30/Thrwa5ryztI/AAAAAAAACTE/okfDYXe90Kg/s400/0626-12.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628075029304626898" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;東電は大損害をつぐなえ！～大雨の中、福島市で1000人がパレード&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6月26日、福島市内で福島アクション・生活村とハンカチパレードが開かれた。生活村は、午前10時から12時30分までAOZ（MAXふくしま4階）で開かれ500名以上が参加し、今抱えている不安を相談したり、情報を得たりすることができる場として大いに盛り上がった。午後は、13時30分から福島県庁前で集会とハンカチパレードが開催された（写真）。大雨の中でも、県内外から1000人が参加した。主催者の佐々木慶子さんは、「佐藤雄平県知事の責任は重大。県庁前で声をあげることは大きな意味がある」と発言、また「福島老朽原発を考える会」の青木一政さんは、「6月30日には東京で災害対策本部と直接交渉を行い、政府に避難促進策について具体的な措置を求めたい」と語った。（湯本雅典） ・&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/uniontube55?gl=JP&amp;hl=ja "&gt;動画（YouTube）&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-4310592471651232722?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/4310592471651232722/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=4310592471651232722' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/4310592471651232722'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/4310592471651232722'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/07/tepco-should-pay-for-disaster-1000.html' title='TEPCO should pay- for the disaster!   1000 march in rain at Fukushima'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-q8cEv4FDhlY/ThrwV3EwPyI/AAAAAAAACS8/z3qyYKBy_r8/s72-c/0626-11.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-3169510102379597770</id><published>2011-07-11T21:39:00.003+09:00</published><updated>2011-07-11T21:42:35.210+09:00</updated><title type='text'>1000 people gather to demand free tuition for North Korean high schools</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-28IaElQ4rPA/ThrvQXN_z7I/AAAAAAAACSs/jicJq3zw1Lg/s1600/0623-01.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 222px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-28IaElQ4rPA/ThrvQXN_z7I/AAAAAAAACSs/jicJq3zw1Lg/s400/0623-01.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628073748742524850" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On June 23, a meeting to demand free tuition of North Korean high schools was held at Toshima-kokaido in Tokyo, drawing 1000 people. In April last year, tuition in public and private high schools was made free by the introduction of a “high school enrollment support fund” intended to provide better educational opportunities for high school students. North Korean High schools were the only schools excluded from the scheme. The government explains that the reason for the exclusion is the military conflict in the Korean Peninsula. But this explanation is in contradiction with the Ministry of Education’s policy of keeping foreign policy issues and educational policy separate-  Speaking on behalf of the sponsor of the meeting, HASEGAWA Kazuo reported - that he has submitted 11 thousand signatures demanding free tuition to the Ministry of Education and called for the immediate application of free tuition to North Korean high schools.

Zenroren, the Japan Communist Party aligned labor federation, has already made clear its No Nukes position, so the tide for No Nukes is spreading in the labor movement. The following is from the Zenrokyo Fax Bulletin. “Zenrokyo has decided at its Standing Committee to strengthen our activities for No Nukes, regarding the situation of the nuclear accident at Fukushima after the Great East Japan Earthquake of March 11. The Zenrokyo No Nukes Project was set up on June 16. We are going to hold seminars and symposia on the issue and attend No Nukes rallies.” Photo: Zenrokyo banners at the The Million People’s Action on No Nukes, June 11&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;脱原発運動、労働界に広がる～全労協が脱原発プロジェクトを設置&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;全労協は6月20日付のFAX情報で「脱原発プロジェクト」を設置したことを発表し、本格的に運動に取り組むことを明らかにした。全労連も脱原発方針を明確にしており、労働界での脱原発の流れが広がってきた。以下、全労協FAX情報より。「3月11日の東日本大震災で事故を起こした東京電力福島原発の事故の実態や状況から、全労協はこれまで進めてきた反原発の闘いをより具体的に取り組むことを常任幹事会で決定しました。そのため6月16日に『全労協 脱原発プロジェクト』を発足させました。また取り組み内容も原発問題を中心に反原発集会の参加や学習会やシンポジウムなどの企画も準備して行くことを確認しました」　＊写真＝全労協の隊列（6.11デモ）&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-1496208052714075339?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/1496208052714075339/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=1496208052714075339' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/1496208052714075339'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/1496208052714075339'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/07/support-for-no-nukes-builds-among-labor.html' title='Support for No Nukes builds  among Labor;  Zenrokyo sets up No Nukes Project'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kAH_OjYRKes/ThruUKXaJZI/AAAAAAAACSk/K83vVNF_9Bg/s72-c/0611zenrokyo.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-807464441635874162</id><published>2011-07-01T13:36:00.004+09:00</published><updated>2011-07-01T13:47:08.823+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='The Million People’s Action on No Nukes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nuclear Power Plants'/><title type='text'>No Nukes Action Beats ~ Angry Youths Gather at Shinjuku</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-21aQWxxZ74U/Tg1PERflBrI/AAAAAAAACSU/LxqIYkX0AbM/s1600/0611-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-21aQWxxZ74U/Tg1PERflBrI/AAAAAAAACSU/LxqIYkX0AbM/s400/0611-1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5624238444489541298" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Million People’s Action on No Nukes took place across Japan on June 11. Some 6,000 people gathered at Shiba Park with some labor unions and A-bomb survivors group while 1,500 people including the environmental groups at Yoyogi Park. Thousands of people who gathered in Shinjuku walked through the entertainment district with loud music blasting. When the march ended at Shinjuku Station, people began to form crowds at 6 p.m. Police tried to interrupt the event by dividing the crowd, but there were so many people that it finally became free space. A Fukushima citizen came up to tell hardships of life under radiation, and a French parliamentarian of the European Union sent a solidarity message during the rally. Musicians also continued to play Anti-Nuke songs and expressed anger. Hajime Matsumoto from Shiroto-no-ran (Ran of ordinary people) marked the end of the rally by saying, “We had 20,000 people out on the street today. With this power and energy, we will stop all nuclear power plants. We can definitely do that.” (By M) See &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/uniontube55?gl=JP&amp;hl=ja#p/u/2/nDwl_Nla4Kk"&gt;9-min video (Bilingual version on You Tube)&lt;/a&gt;, Photo news (&lt;a href="http://www.labornetjp.org/news/2011/0611shasin"&gt;Shinjuku&lt;/a&gt;), Photos (&lt;a href="http://www.labornetjp.org/news/2011/0611siba"&gt;Shiba Park&lt;/a&gt;, New York), &lt;a href="http://chukeisimin.info/611/"&gt;Live Broadcast Site&lt;/a&gt;, Reports (&lt;a href="http://www.labornetjp.org/news/2011/0611osaka"&gt;Osaka&lt;/a&gt;, , &lt;a href="http://www.labornetjp.org/news/2011/1307874051767JNK"&gt;New York&lt;/a&gt;), Video of &lt;a href="http://www.ourplanet-tv.org/?q=node/1104"&gt;Shinjuku (Our Planet-TV&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ygOF5_-OUHE/Tg1PJNxDyRI/AAAAAAAACSc/NClIqeasznA/s1600/0611-2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ygOF5_-OUHE/Tg1PJNxDyRI/AAAAAAAACSc/NClIqeasznA/s400/0611-2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5624238529388464402" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;脱原発パワーが炸裂！～「怒りの若者」で埋まった新宿アルタ前&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6月11日「脱原発100万人アクション」が全国各地で開催された。東京では、芝公園（原水禁・労組など）に6000人、環境団体が中心になった代々木公園には1500人集まった。新宿コースは若者による数千人規模のサウンドデモで繁華街を練り歩いた。午後6時、デモ解散地である新宿駅東口アルタ前には、デモを終えた人々が続々と集まってきた。警察官がロープを張って妨害しようとしたが、人の波が圧倒しアルタ前は文字通り「解放区」となった。マイクアピールでは、放射能汚染に苦しむ福島県民の訴えや、ヨーロッパからの連帯表明、怒りの反原発ライブなどが続いた。最後に「素人の乱」の松本哉さんがマイクを握った。「きょうは2万人が集まった。このパワーで原発をやめさせよう。きっとできる」と訴えると、地鳴りのような拍手と歓声が起きた。（M） &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/uniontube55?gl=JP&amp;hl=ja#p/u/2/nDwl_Nla4Kk"&gt;動画9分（YouTube・国際版）&lt;/a&gt;　・&lt;a href="http://www.labornetjp.org/news/2011/0611shasin"&gt;写真速報（新宿）&lt;/a&gt;　　・写真（&lt;a href="http://www.labornetjp.org/news/2011/0611siba"&gt;芝公園&lt;/a&gt;）　　・&lt;a href="http://chukeisimin.info/611/"&gt;完全ライブ中継サイト&lt;/a&gt;　　・報告（&lt;a href="http://www.labornetjp.org/news/2011/0611osaka"&gt;大阪&lt;/a&gt;）　　・報告（&lt;a href="http://www.labornetjp.org/news/2011/1307874051767JNK"&gt;ニューヨーク&lt;/a&gt;）　　・&lt;a href="http://www.ourplanet-tv.org/?q=node/1104http://www.ourplanet-tv.org/?q=node/1104"&gt;新宿動画（OurPlanet-TV&lt;/a&gt;）　&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-807464441635874162?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/807464441635874162/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=807464441635874162' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/807464441635874162'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/807464441635874162'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/07/no-nukes-action-beats-angry-youths.html' title='No Nukes Action Beats ~ Angry Youths Gather at Shinjuku'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-21aQWxxZ74U/Tg1PERflBrI/AAAAAAAACSU/LxqIYkX0AbM/s72-c/0611-1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-3119130291287668149</id><published>2011-07-01T13:32:00.002+09:00</published><updated>2011-07-01T13:36:20.834+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='NUGW Tokyo Tobu'/><title type='text'>We do not Allow Business Closure, Dismissal of ‘Hotel 101 Inn’</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VRQI2ElaXBo/Tg1OLoJ7G6I/AAAAAAAACSM/4JEkbvKDiuM/s1600/0610tobu2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VRQI2ElaXBo/Tg1OLoJ7G6I/AAAAAAAACSM/4JEkbvKDiuM/s400/0610tobu2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5624237471320185762" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Workers at Hotel 101 Inn in eastern Tokyo formed a union under The National Union of General Workers Tokyo Tobu on May 23 to demand that the company annul dismissals due to business closure and make unpaid wages.&lt;br /&gt; The company decided to close the business without consulting its workers and dismissed them without considering their lives or the right to live.

The ordinance is to demand teachers of prefectural schools stand for the national anthem, known as Kimigayo. A citizens’ group released a protest letter to the local government, which said the reprimanding teachers who refuse to stand for and sing the national anthem, as well as threatening them by it, obstruct children’s right to know a diverse sense of value in society and people’s right to form their own personality. Treating teachers who refuse to stand up for the national anthem and reprimanding them would also hurt children. They would end up not making their own decisions and learning not to protest authorities without respecting their own ideas. The group announced that it would expand the protest action.

Higuchi is a photojournalist who reported on workers at nuclear power plants across Japan for more than 30 years. He delivered a powerful speech and stories about workers of subcontractors who were disposed of like old rags after being exposed to a large amount of radiation. Higuchi express anger toward electric companies, which never seemed to treat such workers as humans. His stories revealed that Tokyo Electric Power Company forced inhumane work under a few hundred mSv that is detrimental to human health. This is an ordinary work environment without any nuclear plants disaster. He also pointed out that TEPCO labor unions have had interest only to protect full-time TEPCO employees. An attempt to unionize temp workers in the past have also shed light to the importance of workers raising their voices.

Mr. Shimizu worked for longer than 80 hours from August 7 to 10, 2006 when he was a manager of a store of the chain. He also had to work for 37 consecutive days. Such hard work made him depressed and forced to be absent. The judgment was to order the management of the chain to pay him overtime charges and to grant damages for the overwork, which were approximately 1,640,000 yen, or 20,000 dollars in total. SHOP 99 is now expanding as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lawson, a bigger convenience store chain. It is time to change ways of working of managers and owners of convenience stores into more humane ones.

A sexual harassment victim who was forced to leave her workplace and see a psychiatrist appealed in the meeting. TAKENOBU Mieko, a former member of the editorial board of Asahi Shimbun, a national newspaper, said in a panel discussion, “Those having power or in a stronger position take advantage of the weakness of workers when committing sexual harassment. The victims cannot continue to work, and this problem becomes a hotbed for poverty”. The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare has considered revising criteria for compensation for sexual harassment and their management in its subcommittee meeting. In the “Compensation now!” gathering, participants adopted an appeal to demand standards and guidelines for widely recognizing the compensation based on the reality of sexual harassment.

Its answer to the people’s demand on May 25, 2011 was very perfunctory, “We are sorry for the disaster in Fukushima, but we continue operating the nuclear power plant with appropriate safety measures to prevent an accident”, and “30% of Japan’s electricity is supplied with nuclear power due to the Japanese Government’s energy policy, so the plant is necessary”. We, men and women of all ages, appealed in front of the company’s office, “Shut down Shiga!”, “We don’t want nukes!”, “We want a future for children without nukes!”, “Farewell to nukes” and “Goodbye to nukes”.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Education Board forcibly reprimanded Mr. Tanaka, 41, on May 26 at its regular meeting. About 20 people demanded the board not to punish him in front of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building (photo). NEZU Kimiko, who was teaching at the same school before retirement and also refused to stand up during Kimigayo playing, said, “Simply asking children to follow a command without teaching the meaning of the anthem is to rob their thinking skills. One of the reasons of the recent nuclear disaster in Fukushima is that everyone ‘does not think or doubt’ at all, and has been deceived by the ‘myth of nuclear safety’”. People who participated in the session of the education board demanded the board members, “Stop punishing” and “Shame on you”. Mr. Tanaka’s refusal to stand up during Kimigayo playing was beyond expectation for the education board and showed that resistance never dies.

More than 500 supporters for the people from Fukushima formed a human chain to surround the ministry. The two-hour negotiation made Mr. Watanabe, assistant director of the science, technology and academic policy division of the ministry, pledge, “20 mSv a year is not a standard. Our target is 1 mSv/year”. NAKATE Seiichi, leader of a grassroots group named “Fukushima Network”, said, “We succeeded in getting a pledge from the ministry, although there was not the real person in charge.

Children in the march chanted energetically in  support of the children in Fukushima, “Children want to eat healthy vegetables! ” ”Children want to play baseball outside!” I also chanted in a loud voice to defend the future of children. I heard afterwards that these children were from a remote school in a mountain village near Fukui Prefecture and that there were 6 children attending the march out of the total 8 pupils of the school.

A previous rally held in Koenji on April  10 was attended mostly by young people, but this time there was more diversity, with more union members and senior participants. Many participants said they appreciated the Prime Minister's decision to stop operation of the Hamaoka nuclear power plant but that we should not slacken the reins. The march started at 3pm and the police came in between the sound truck and the demonstrators. The participants who wanted to walk and dance freely were stunned by the move. They repeatedly demanded that the police back off. Suddenly in the confusion, two protestors were arrested for obstructing police officers near Harajuku station. Despite such harassment, the demonstration was a success, filling the busy streets of Shibuya with live music and chants of “no nukes!” There was good coverage in the mass media including  NHK TV news, which reported the no nuke demonstration as  feature news for the first time.

The previous meeting drew 100 people, but this time  250 came. The first mission of the Network was to negotiate with the government on the next day. So a request to withdraw the new radiation safety standard of 20 milli-sieverts per year for children was confirmed at the meeting. The safety standard issue has become a hot issue even in the mass media, after Cabinet Secretary Advisor Kosako resigned on April 29th. The meeting was  sort of a kick-off for  negotiations with the government on May 2nd. The struggle to scrap the safety standard of 20 milli-sieverts is gaining momentum.

A worker in charge of the issue came out later and apologized. “I want you to broadcast the truth,” a farmer was telling NHK television crew. “You should air the program, ‘Truth revealed 20 years after the Chernobyl accident’ again.” (By M) See &lt;a href="http://www.labornetjp.org/news/2011/0426shasin"&gt;photo spot news&lt;/a&gt; &amp; &lt;a href="http://video.labornetjp.org/Members/akira/videos/0426kasahara.wmv/view"&gt;video on UnionTube&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-l2P5Ba3aVG4/TdNXw6x1NZI/AAAAAAAACPA/tOieop5P7gg/s1600/0426-yasai2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 299px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-l2P5Ba3aVG4/TdNXw6x1NZI/AAAAAAAACPA/tOieop5P7gg/s400/0426-yasai2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5607922458930001298" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;怒った農民！東電前に結集～牛とほうれん草をひきつれて&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;　チェルノブイリ25周年の4月26日昼、東京電力前の道路は、牛を積んだトラック2台が横付けされ、ほうれん草が山と積まれた。福島・茨城・千葉の農民連のメンバーら250人と支援者あわせて350人が、歩道一杯に並ぶ。日に焼けた農民の顔は険しい。メディアも殺到した。「東電 俺げの田んぼ汚したな 許せね～」「モウがまんできんゾ」「安全神話はウソだった」「牛と土地を返せ」、プラカードのどの言葉にも怒りが煮えたぎっていた。代表団は、東電に「原発被害の損害賠償をただちに行え」と要請した。その後、東電の担当部長が、ビルから出てきて謝罪するシーンもあった。またある農民はNHK取材班に対して「真実の報道をしてほしい。“チェルノブイリ 20年後の真実”の番組を再放送するべき」と強く迫っていた。（M） &lt;a href="http://www.labornetjp.org/news/2011/0426shasin"&gt;写真速報&lt;/a&gt;　　・&lt;a href="http://video.labornetjp.org/Members/akira/videos/0426kasahara.wmv/view"&gt;動画（UnionTube）&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-5544918777844032299?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/5544918777844032299/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=5544918777844032299' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/5544918777844032299'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/5544918777844032299'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/05/angry-farmers-rally-at-tepco-with-their.html' title='Angry Farmers Rally at TEPCO with their Cows, Spinach'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PYlNFIQ4LRY/TdNXrA_x1mI/AAAAAAAACO4/yugcPFYvBaY/s72-c/0426-yasai.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-7220859353710685330</id><published>2011-05-18T14:13:00.002+09:00</published><updated>2011-05-18T14:17:08.320+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='anti-nuclear power plants actions'/><title type='text'>Photo flash news: 4000 Joined in “4.16 No Nukes!

Despite the gravity of public protest against nuclear power plants, mainstream media have not yet changed their stance. I decided to introduce anti-nuclear power plants actions on my blog for everyone to learn about them. I arrived at Labornet Japan homepage as I was checking other nuclear-plant-related sites. I hope my photo will help inform your readers.

Ever since the TEPCO plants in Fukushima exploded, farm produces, vegetables and animals have been exposed to radiation. Farmers can no longer grow vegetables. Who drove them into this difficulty? Farmers in Ibaraki and Chiba prefectures, as well as a young man whose family farms in Fukushima, spoke at the rally. Nearly 1,500 people marched through town dressed up in vegetables and animals with children who wore anti-nuke masks. Humans, vegetables or animals, no matter what we are, we must create a society free of radiation and concerns over our health and safety.

The demonstrators marched from a park in Tokyo’s Shinjuku entertainment district. They walked on Shokuan-dori Street, where fans of Korean pop culture visit, and drew attention from the passersby and cars driving by. They stood out with rainbow flags and photos of Ishihara with a big cross over his mouth as they approached the main station. The signs read, “Sexual minority may be living next to you,” aside from the angry protest slogans. It’s true that Ishihara’s remarks are not only the problem he is blamed for. The Tokyo citizen’s consciousness is in question that allowed Ishihara’s re-election as a government.

Furusho Toshiko, a member of the group, said after filing the signatures, “We tried to collect signatures after we had learned that Hara Masao, mayor of Koriyama City, Fukushima Prefecture demanded the company and Kaieda Banri, Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry have the Fukushima nuclear power plants decommissioned. We residents in Tokyo are using electricity generated in Fukushima, 250 km north of Tokyo. We are also perpetrators. We would like to join hands with the local residents in Fukushima”. The group’s campaign has spread to Fukushima and all over Japan. The campaign messages have been translated into English and German, and some signatures have been sent to the group from overseas. More signatures are wanted and will be filed to TEPCO and the Cabinet Office in the week of May 9. At the meeting after the signatures were filed, there was a vivid report from Oga Ayako, a resident in Okuma Town, Fukushima Prefecture, in which the four troubled nuclear reactors are built.

A small park near Koenji Railway Station, the starting point of the march, was soon flooded with participants whose number reached 15,000 according to the organizer. Nearly 90% of the participants were youths in their 20s and 30s, and most of them joined this kind of demonstration for the first time after having known it on the Internet. They were very enthusiastically opposing nuclear power plants, heating up the march with various placards and costumes and powerful music. The demonstration joined by a very large number of youths became groundbreaking in Japan’s social movement history. Matsumoto Hajime, the organizer, told reporters, “Something has begun. Otherwise, Japan will collapse”. The live stream broadcasting was viewed by more than 10,000.

The majority of the demonstrators at the TEPCO headquarters were women. One of them carried a placard, saying, “Stop nuclear power plants. That’s what I want to say”. A young man, who was broadcasting live stream, said, “I’m doing this as the corporate media do not report it”. The majority of the media were international ones, but some Japanese TV stations, such as TBS and Nippon Television, sent their crews to cover an anti-nuke demonstration for the first time. Many demanded during the rally that the Hamaoka and other nuclear power plants be stopped. Pak Bo, a musician, made a live performance, expressing anger, “Stop nuclear power plants, contaminating the earth”. Then, the demonstrators continued their protest against the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency.

Our union, Zentoitsu Union, and the Solidarity Network with Migrants Japan set up a“Relief team without a name”to support tsunami survivors, especially migrant workers. The team sent its first load of relief goods on March 20. The next load was sent on March 27 with a 10 ton truck. A volunteer acupuncturit was on the truck to care the survivors. The acupuncture service went on for four hours and the patients were eager for another service next week. There were two moving encounters. We were able to find out and meet the ex-president of the union local at Shizugawa super market. This relief activity started from concerns for his safety. Second, we met a group of thirteen Filipinas, who were helping to sort out the relief goods. They all lost their living by tsunami. We were able to get information of other foreigners living in the local community.&lt;br /&gt;(TORII Ippei, Zentoitsu Union)&lt;br /&gt;Photo: Loading the truck with relief goods&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QuckLa_oRxo/TZwLxgxk33I/AAAAAAAACMw/8xFXdKtL9-I/s1600/0330hisai.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-QuckLa_oRxo/TZwLxgxk33I/AAAAAAAACMw/8xFXdKtL9-I/s400/0330hisai.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5592357782526680946" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;「名無しの救援団」南三陸町へ救援活動～涙と握手の再会&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;宮城県南三陸町への救援活動について報告します。第2便：3/27（日）4:000ハイム化粧品出発、11:30南三陸町に到着、16:00南三陸町を出発、22:15ハイムに帰着。救援物資は10トン車に満載。12:00～16:00同行の鍼灸師ボランティアによる被災者へのケア活動を行いました。当初けげんな様子でしたが、終了時には「来週も来てくれるのか」と期待されるようになりました。うれしい出会い。ひとつめ。南三陸町への救援のきっかけとなった志津川スーパーマーケットの元分会長の生存を確認し、涙と握手の再会。ふたつめ。地域の一員として救援物資の仕分け作業に参加するフィリピン人グループとの出会い。彼女たちも皆、家を流されたとのこと。13人ほど居るそうです。他の外国籍のひとたちの消息も尋ねました。（全統一労組・鳥井） 　＊写真＝積み込みの様子&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-7600160367660243747?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/7600160367660243747/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=7600160367660243747' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/7600160367660243747'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/7600160367660243747'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/04/relief-team-without-name-relief.html' title='“Relief team without a name”  Relief activity at Minamisanriku'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oEuo9xZqRk0/TZwLrKGggWI/AAAAAAAACMo/Y6EbUZ2QaXs/s72-c/nanasi01.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-7905602915219659353</id><published>2011-04-06T15:33:00.006+09:00</published><updated>2011-04-06T15:42:42.403+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='evacuee from Futaba-cho'/><title type='text'>A voice from an evacuee at Saitama Arena “I was against the nuclear power plant</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6fYKSzwuciY/TZwKn3OoPnI/AAAAAAAACMY/bGbjTEw3X0Y/s1600/saitama07.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6fYKSzwuciY/TZwKn3OoPnI/AAAAAAAACMY/bGbjTEw3X0Y/s400/saitama07.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5592356517243797106" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A 63 years -old male evacuee from Futaba-cho, near the Fukushima nuclear power plant, expressed his feelings at his evacuation cite at the Saitama Arena. “I used to work for a major enterprise in Iwaki city until 58. I was a union official there, but retired earlier than the fixed retirement age of 60 and went back home in Futaba-cho to work in the paddy fields. I wanted to stay there, because I’m old enough not to care about the radiation. So I had my grandchildren and their mother leave, but I didn’t move. There were three others who said they will stick to the last, but we were forced to evict by the self defense force. I was raising cows, so it was hard to leave them behind. I’m through with TEPCO. There is no easy way to reconstruction. We won’t be able to sell vegetables even if we could make them.&lt;br /&gt;Some people blame the government, but TEPCO is the main culprit. TEPCO is planning  a rolling blackout in Saitama, but it is not carried out as planned. They are fooling us around. I used to be active in the union and was against nuclear power plants.”(ETO Takumi)&lt;br /&gt;Photo:　evacuation　cite at Saitama Arena&lt;br clear="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S1IKbwofSQk/TZwKsUEa9VI/AAAAAAAACMg/K1iVosqSL2c/s1600/saitama03.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 299px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S1IKbwofSQk/TZwKsUEa9VI/AAAAAAAACMg/K1iVosqSL2c/s400/saitama03.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5592356593705088338" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;「原発なくせって思ってたよ」～さいたまアリーナ 避難者の声&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;「58歳まで、いわき市の大企業で組合やってて早期退職して、双葉町で親が作った田んぼをしてた。放射能の影響っていっても俺はもう年だから、ここにいたいって言ったんだ。孫と嫁は逃がしたけど。俺は動く気はなかった。最期まで双葉に残りたいっていうやつ、4人くらいいたけど、自衛隊、消防団が来て、ここにつれてこられた。強制退去だね。牛を飼ってたんだ。生きものたち残して・・つらかったと思うよ。東電には見切りをつけた。復旧なんて見通しないじゃん。野菜作ってもたたかれて・・売れないジャン。政府が悪いって言う人いるけど、東電が一番わるい。こっち来てみても、計画停電っていっておいて消えなかったり、馬鹿にすんなって思う。これからが問題だ。おれは組合やってきた。原発なくせって、思ってたよ」（63歳男性・取材 江東拓美）　＊写真＝避難所になった「さいたまアリーナ」&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/69034378240824972-7905602915219659353?l=labornetjp.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/feeds/7905602915219659353/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=69034378240824972&amp;postID=7905602915219659353' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/7905602915219659353'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/69034378240824972/posts/default/7905602915219659353'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://labornetjp.blogspot.com/2011/04/voice-from-evacuee-at-saitama-arena-i.html' title='A voice from an evacuee at Saitama Arena “I was against the nuclear power plant'/><author><name>Labornet Japan</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6fYKSzwuciY/TZwKn3OoPnI/AAAAAAAACMY/bGbjTEw3X0Y/s72-c/saitama07.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-69034378240824972.post-1039637605642745136</id><published>2011-04-06T15:27:00.005+09:00</published><updated>2011-04-06T15:32:34.324+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tokyo Electric Power Company'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant'/><title type='text'>No more nuclear power plant!  12 hundred march to TEPCO head office</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Ygmu0a17m9o/TZwH7JB_S3I/AAAAAAAACL4/xxjL5yOySZU/s1600/0327-01.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Ygmu0a17m9o/TZwH7JB_S3I/AAAAAAAACL4/xxjL5yOySZU/s400/0327-01.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5592353549905251186" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On 2pm March 27, a march protesting the Fukushima nuclear power plant accident started from the Mizutani-bashi Park in Ginza, Tokyo. The participants wore colorful costumes and drew attention from the passers-by in Sunday downtown Tokyo. As the parade neared the Tokyo Electric Power Company head office, the anger of the participants, who have anticipated the disaster and warned over and over again, boiled up to its height. “Electricity shortage is a great lie!””Don’t &lt;br /&gt;deregulate the limit of radiation!””Stop all nuclear power plants now!” Strong fists, chants and banners were directed to the main office building of TEPCO. The end point of the parade was Hibiya Park and the public hall in the Park was completely surrounded by the participants. The convener of the parade registered 20 participants to the police, but the final turnout was 12 hundred. The parade was a huge success.

A part-time women worker complained that her employer told her to take a leave of absence and wait for a recall, butdidn’t call back, so she couldn’t pay her rent.

An earthquake may be natural disaster, but the nuclear explosion is caused by a human error. The central government and TEPCO must be held accountable for this. To turn this crisis around to a better future, we should rely on nuclear power plants. I will continue speaking out for the next generation.” Tanpopo-sha plans to hold a rally and a series of lectures on the current state of the power plant and tips on protection against radiation. The lecture is from March 18 thorugh 21.

I was finally able to confirm safety of the union members and their families. I assume the areas along Sanriku coast are completely destroyed. It may take more than 10 years to reconstruct the areas. It seems like there are bodies being washed up at the coast where I used to go fishing all the time. We don’t know where to even start. I have so much to say to TEPCO and the government. The situation became serious because they forced the nuclear plants upon the locals by saying that it was safe. The company’s vows on safety and emergency countermeasures were all a myth and a lie. A warning has been issued, but elderly and the sick people are left behind. No one can go and rescue them. The DVD rental store, TUTAYA, invited people to come and rent a video or two to take a break from a flood of earthquake news. What are they thinking? People are made. And Ishihara. I will never forgive him. An apology is not enough. It is unbelievable that he acts as though he knows it all, being in Tokyo. I want the people in Tokyo to hear me.
