Awed by a nation's quiet dignity

COMMENTARY


・・・・・
As Canadian student Jouvon Evans, who studies in Tokyo and was on a train to Sendai, told Agence France-Presse: 'I have never been in a disaster before so I didn't know what to expect. In the movies, you always see people running around screaming, but here at the centre, it's really calm.'

The Japanese are used to a trembling earth - the quake was followed by over 300 aftershocks, an absurd number really - and they have prepared for it with emergency drills and sensible building.

But this ganging up of nature is beyond preparation and imagination. Boats on roofs and cars in the water, in a time of bitter cold with ears tuned to sirens, is more than literally a world turned upside down.

Yet every day, reports trickle in of civility - almost a conditioning in Japan - amid the ruins.

An old lady in pain from a shattered ankle, pulled from beneath fallen furniture, apologised to her rescuers for inconveniencing them and asked whether others should be helped first. It is as if courtesy, so ingrained in a culture of bowing and formality, never leaves.

Newspapers are littered with tales of a vending machine owner who has been distributing drinks without charge and of elderly ladies bringing hot meals to those in shelters.

A petrol pump attendant apologises profusely for not having fuel to long waiting lines of motorists where no one cuts in or bellows in frustrated anger. Those in food queues take just enough so as to leave some for others. In everyday life this is nice, in distress it is astonishing.

Photos tell their own stories, especially one of a tiny child, arms raised, face impassive, as a masked inspector checks her for contamination.

The world has been searching for a word for all this, and has settled on 'stoic'. As stereotypes go, it is not a bad one. And it points to a type of heroism we rarely encounter.・・・・・

Widespread looting occurred during Hurricane Katrina in Florida, and its absence - mostly - in Japan led a Telegraph blog to be titled, 'Why is there no looting in Japan?', as if it is an expected reaction.

In such a 'landscape of loss', as The New York Times artfully put it, hysteria often takes centre-stage, like a release of panic, but little has been reported here.

It is not as if there has been no stealing, or complaints, or people becoming fed up, or anger, for that would be to deny their humanness. But in scale and volume of discontent it is insignificant, else, presumably, it would be an indication of bad manners.

 しかし、称賛の後には罵倒がくるものである。


米紙「大惨事の防止をあきらめたように思える」


 東日本巨大地震に伴う福島第一原発の事故深刻化を受けて、日本を危険視する傾向が国際社会で強まる一方、総力を挙げて未曽有の大災害に立ち向かう日本社会を信頼し続ける外国人も少なくない。


 海外メディアではこれまで、被災者の忍耐強さや規律正しさを称賛し、激励する論調が主流だったが、原発の事態悪化につれて、悲観論が目立ってきた。

どの記事だろう。なんでリンクをつけてくれないのだろう?

東日本大震災:在沖海兵隊、仙台空港復旧へ 日米連携アピール、週内にも開始

 日米両政府は15日、東日本大震災で使用不能となった仙台空港の早期復旧のため、沖縄の第3海兵機動展開部隊を投入する方針を決めた。海兵隊員は米海軍強襲揚陸艦「エセックス」で17日にも仙台沖に到着。滑走路のがれき除去など空港施設の復旧活動を週内にも始める方向で調整している。復興に米軍普天間飛行場移設問題で揺れる在沖縄米海兵隊が参画することで日米連携をアピールする狙いがある。防衛省関係者が明らかにした。
