JAPAN-FUKUSHIMA-NUCLEAR WASTEWATER-TOURISM-DECLINE
(230825) -- FUKUSHIMA, Aug. 25, 2023 (Xinhua) -- A person is seen at a beach in Yotsukura Town of Iwaki City, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan, Aug. 23, 2023. Japan started releasing nuclear-contaminated wastewater from the crippled Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the Pacific Ocean on Thursday, disregarding public concerns and strong opposition from both home and abroad.
The Japanese government's reckless move to release the radioactive wastewater sparked waves of anger among local people in Fukushima, especially the fishermen and business owners. They are worried that the release would lead to a further decline in tourist visits. (Xinhua/Zhang Xiaoyu)
