Yesterday one of my employees who has relatives in Japan excused himself early as he was picking up his dad and his aunts at the airport. They have been working, living, married with children in Japan and for now they are coming back to the Philippines until the nuclear power plant mess has cleared in Fukushima and the infrastructure damage from the massive earthquake and the tsunami has been cleaned up. If you have Japanese friends, invite them over and spend a few months vacation here in our country…. be accidental tourists.
Worse news… the US Military called out to US citizens in Japan. Abandon ship. Women and children first. This is not a drill. Moving out 10,000 people a day via all means possible. Beginning now.

Japan: US Military begins voluntary evacuationThe US Navy said Thursday afternoon it would start evacuating families from Naval Air Facility Atsugi and Yokosuka Naval Base, near Tokyo. A few hours later, officials at Misawa Air Base, in northern Japan, did the same. Camp Zama, a U.S. Army facility near Tokyo, said it was allowing families and non-essential workers to voluntarily leave.
In a radio address Thursday afternoon, Col. Otto Feather, 374th Airlift Wing commander, said he expects Yokota Air Base to join the list soon.

“The order of departure: Women and children first, non-essential person second, essential personnel third, and then me,†said Capt. Eric Gardner, Atsugi commander, during a broadcast on the base command channel.
If you are Japanese and you live within the area affected by nuclear power plants failing, then this may be a good time to take a vacation somewhere far away for safety.
