日本向世界「挑戰」

日本政府正式啟動福島核污水向太平洋排放， 不顧隣國之反對， 仍然一意孤行， 實在令人不齒和不安。

按照計劃， 日本排放核污水前在處理過的水中加上大量海水，將濃度控制在預想之水平， 將在本年內排放約3.12 萬噸， 即便經過處理， 核汚水中也還有64 種放射性元素， 會嚴重影響到海洋生態。

我們必須非常嚴重地指出， 日本政府此舉是對沿海地帶之荒謬行動，為何因為福島之核外洩要其他國家同時遭殃。

中國大陸及韓國已經對此做出激烈反對， 同时全面禁止日本海產進口。 我們也要奉勸拜登總統絕不能因政治原因而蹤容日本之行為， 而當前之情勢， 似乎日本人只會聽美國人的話。

我也非常同情那些在大海中拼搏而討生的漁民們， 他們可能就此斷送自己之生計！被這股核污水犧牲了。

當今世界已經夠亂了， 各國經濟情勢也非常嚴峻 ，如今日本政府又來添亂， 我們真不知道他們如何向國際社會交待？

 Japan “Challenges” The World

The Japanese government has officially launched the discharge of Fukushima’s nuclear contaminated wastewater into the Pacific Ocean. Despite the unified opposition and outcries from its neighboring countries, Japan still remains very stubborn, which adds a really selfish, disgusting and disturbing element to their overt action against the world. 

According to the plan, Japan will control the concentration of the treated water and a large amount of seawater at the expected level before any discharge of nuclear sewage is undertaken. About 31,600 tons will be discharged this year. Even after this treatment, there are still 64 radioactive elements in the nuclear sewage which will seriously affect the marine ecology over an extended period of time. 

We must also point out in very serious terms, that the Japanese government’s move is an extreme and absurd action against the whole world. Why should so many other countries now suffer together because of Fukushima’s nuclear leak?

China and Korea have both now registered their fierce opposition against this 'renagade' action by Japan. 

At the same time, China wants a complete ban of all imported seafood from Japan. We also want to urge the United States government to strongly advise Japan in no uncertain terms to stop this action immediately. 

We also sympathize very much with the many fishermen who struggle every day to survive in the sea and are now victims caught in the middle of this extreme situation.

Today our world is chaotic enough. Now the Japanese government is making even more trouble for the whole world.
