Dear Friends,
I am sending you a copy of my message adressed to President Thomas Bach of the IOC.
Dr. Kiyoshi Kurokawa,former Chirman of the Parliamentary
Investigation Commission has kindly sent me his recent review in which
he tries to explain" why Japanese leaders failedto learn from
‘historical’ and major Fukushima Nuclear Disaster followed by more and
more numbers of ‘unthinkable’ scandalous incidences”.
I poited out a new view point transcending the nation, taking into
account the future of humanity and the earth.This new notion allows us
todeny that the holder of the view is neither unpatriotic nor
traitorous.
Please allow me to count on your understanding and support.

Dear President Thomas Bach,
Please allow me to send you a most enlightening review on the Fukushima nuclear accident,
written by Dr. Kiyoshi Kurokawa,former Chirman of the Parliamentary Investigation Commission.

In his message addressed to me he points out that the world’s
view of Japan has been rapidly changing from trust to ‘unthinkably
stupid and idiotic’.
In the review,Dr.Kurokawa criticises, among others, the formal
collusion between regulaters and operaters, the lack of a comprehensive
plan for crisis management and the lack of transparency in the
decision-making process.
He stresses that Japan is prone to earthquakes and other natural
disasters. In this connection,recent successive earthquakes of
unprecedented magnitude,last week in Gunma Prefecture and today in
Osaka,are shocking the Japanese people,reminding us of the "huge
mistake"to have built more than 50 nuclear reactors in Japan.In
addition to earthquakes and tsunami,volcanos erupting in
Kyuushu(Japan),Hawai and elsewhere are ringing alarm bells.
Under such circumstances,it is only natual that the internationa
commnunity deems it necessary to have the International Olympic
Committee take action in order to reassure the safety of the Tokyo
Olympic Games 2020 based on the assertion "under control"universally
denied.
This is a new view point transcending the nation, taking into account
the future of humanity and the earth.This new notion allows us to deny
that the holder of the view is neither unpatriotic nor traitorous.
Please allow me to count on your initiative to secure the safety of the
Olympic athletes and the spectators eventually visiting Japan.
With highest regards,
Mitsuhei Murata
Former Ambassador to Switzerland
