The Fukushima nuclear disaster that was a result of a 9.1 magnitude earth quake and tsunami March 11, 2011 shows you how the Japanese, some of the richest and most disciplined people in the world can be humbled and broken into destitute poverty and future illness because of the most horrible nuclear accident this world has ever known.
Fukushima has since replaced Chernobyl as the worst nuclear disaster. Witness how bad, how incredibly disastrous all this is. So for any Philippine law makers or business men to ever suggest nuclear power plants be built in the Philippines must be immediately put into prison.
There is absolutely no reason to push for nuclear power plants in the Philippines other than greedy business men wanting to make a quick buck and lobbyists paid the same. We call it: corruption.
And to think weeks before the March 11 Fukushima Disaster Philippine law makers were publicizing in the news papers their intent to push for nuclear power, co-opting several key politicians in provinces they wish to set up their nuclear power plant.
If you remember way back in the mid 1980s we worked hard and sure to junk the Bataan nuclear power plant. Nuclear power plants are not safe, not before, not today, not ever. Chernobyl and Fukushima show that we, the small archipelago of the Philippines cannot afford an accident like Chernobyl or Fukushima. We just do not have the disposable land. Some big nuclear disaster in the Philippines has the potential to make our entire archipelago unlivable.
