The Tohoku Earthquake One year has passed since the Tohoku Earthquake. Japan will never forget the support from all over the world. I will never forget Operation Tomodachi. Thank you very much. Some places in the affected areas are working hard to make a temporary shopping mall, but many people are still unemployed. On TV, I saw a man crying because there is no work. I don't want them to think that the sufferers think unhappy that they have survived. (被災者が生き残ったことを不幸だと思ってほしくないです。) Therefore I hope that the reconstruction can be fast. In this site, you can see photos taken after the tsunami and in the same place now. If you do click, can see photos of a years ago. http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2012/03/japan_tsunami_pictures_before.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SS-sWdAQsYg&feature=share
