Please Help JapanPost Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Search for Posts by mami Report Post to a Moderator        IP Address Go to the top of this page

Hi, there is a message i want to send to the world.
It would be great if you post the web site version
on your facebook or twitter. Thank you.
http://dayof0311.web.fc2.com/index.html

**************************************
To the people around the world.

Hi, my name is Mami and I live in Tokyo.
On March 11th, Japan faced a disaster.
An earthquake with a seismic intensity of 9 hit Japan.
According to the March 14th newspaper,
about 2,000 people died and more than 12,000 people are still missing.
Most of the people who survived lost everything. Their jobs, homes and families.
Now they spend times at a shelter but there is not enough food,
water and their physical strength is lost day by day.
It is said that recovery of this tragedy would take years.

When the earthquake happened, I was working at my office
which is at the 35th floor of Ebisu (Tokyo).
I saw shelves falling down, chairs moving back and forth, and people screaming.
My body was trembling and I couldn't think of anything.
I thought I was going to die.
I prayed for hours.

Luckily I had no injuries and was able to come back home,
but when I came back home and saw the news,
and knew what happened to the people of Tohoku-region,
I was ashamed of myself feeling relief.

4 days has passed since March 11th.

The Japanese government is still continuing the rescue,
and now a lot of countries have expressed support.
I don't know how to thank the support.
Thank you so much.

Also I thank the people for their attention to the news.
I fear that when days pass, people would start forgetting about it.
Indifference leads to death.
I believe that the world attention leads to faster recovery and rescue.
So please, pay attention to us.

Thank you so much for what you have done to us.
I cannot appreciate you enough. 
Thank you.

Hi Mami,

Like many others, I donated to the Red Cross relief effort for Japan. There is a big campaign going on at my university to raise funds. Similar efforts are happening in many places around the world. I hope that it makes a difference.

I'll do my best to spread your message.

気をつけてください。

Take care.

Hi Takuto and Mushka,
Thank you so much for your message.
With the negative situation Japan is facing,
I have to try to be positive.
Your words gave me strength to move forward.
Thank you for saying that you would spread the message.
Thank you so much for everything.

I think that we all care and donate according to our separate abilities... Many schools are having fund raising drives, etc at all levels...

Go, Japan!!!

Recovery!!!
