Kan said measures were not taken despite previous accidents and warnings, and that he must admit that the utility and the government failed to fully deal with the situation.

He also suggested that he will study the possibility of setting up an alternative capital to take over Tokyo’s role in an emergency, saying that measures must be taken to secure the continuity of the capital’s central functions.


Ok Folks. That's NHK. That's the Big Japanese News Station, it's not some little UHF station, this is big national media. I wanted to get a video clip or something to report a story of this level. We don't want to be accused of Hype or Drama or something like that...
