Food monitoring in Amakusa city

Food monitoring in Amakusa city, Kumamoto prefecture

 I visited Amakusa city, Kumamoto prefecture to see effects of Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant accident. Though I have visited various places in Japan to see the health consequence of the accident, I have never found any effect against creatures in Japan.
 Kumamoto prefecture is located in "Kyushu" which is southernmost of the four main islands of Japan. Kyushu is very away from Fukushima and Japanese think that products of Kyushu have never contaminated by radioactive materials of the accident. So Kyushu grown foods such as, vegetables, fruits, meats, fish and so on are widely consumed in Japan.
 So I visited there to see effects of the accident against foods grown in Kyushu.
 Fortunately, I could see no abnormalities and I couldn't find any impact of the accident. It seems that there is no problem for childbirth and child-rearing in Kyushu, Japan.

熊本県天草市で釣りをしました。朝早く起きて船に乗り、釣り糸を垂れると、色んな魚が釣れました。鯛は刺身や塩焼き、キスは塩焼き、カサゴは味噌汁などにして美味しく頂きました。

Japanese foods are good and safe.
Because of stricter food safety law by Japanese government, we have no worry about foods.

 4 years have passed since Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident. I have visited various places of Japan to see the health consequence of the accident.
 Fortunately I have never found any impacts by the accident among Japanese creatures. As far as I know, nobody has health problem which is caused by the accident in Japan.
 Our Prime Minister Abe assures that "The situation is under control. The influence of the contaminated water is completely blocked within Fukushima. There are no health-related problems until now and there will never be health problems." He also said that "Tokyo is 250 kilometers away from Fukushima, and the kind of danger that you imagine does not exist in Tokyo. Tokyo is a very safe city."
 As PM Abe said, Amakusa city, Kumamoto prefecture is very far away from Fukushima, people in there have no concern about the nuclear power plant accident. People in there have already forgotten the accident, because they think radioactive materials cannot reach there.
 We know there is no problem for childbirth and child rearing in Amakusa city, Kumamoto prefecture. So people in there have no concern about the accident.
 I continue to visit various places in Japan to see the effects of the accident, because I can meet various creatures which are more sensitive to radioactive materials from the environment. It is important to see their health for our safety.
