Hisao Seki (61), an anti-atomic NPO (Non Profit Organization) activist in Fukushima. He is working to make a play and recreation ground for the Fukushima radiation affected children in Nihonmatsu, a town nearby our town Iinomachi. However, he did not get any radiation free pure soil! He did a distinctive protest by two days continuous walking from Nihonmatsu to TEPCO (Tokyo Electric Power Corporation). He brought a bag of radiation-affected soil from the playground sport. His placard mention, “Nigase a child” ! “We do not need nuclear power plant.”! He has said this land is not ours, this yours, please take, and give our pure lad. Recently TEPCO again restarting the stopped ‘Atomic Electronic Plant’! Against of this step ‘Anti Atomic’ procession was held in Tokyo! News at Tokyo Shimbun, 2012-07-03.
I have taken an interview of Mr.Seki. He is a famous for anti atomic non violence long march activism. He has been inspired by Satyagraha long march of Mahatma Gandhi. Soon I will edit the video interview and have made a transcript.
First fun with ‘Photo Booth’ of new Mac Book Pro. My chilren was happy to see their alien like face. Particularly Coronet was excited! I have captured the moment for sharing. I also could not stop the laughing…
Nowadays, the Japanese girl-children between the age gourp 3-7 years old are the fond of animation Precure プリキュア . The common story of ‘Precure’ is to make good the Hannanosto (bad person) with loving attack. My daughter ‘Anika’ also hugely likes Precure プリキュア. Everyday She watches this animation with iPod Touch and do not want to stop. She becomes habited to give example of Precure, whenever we do anything against of her fondness and want to attack like Precure to make us in favor of her. She likes the son of Precure as well. Yesterday she sang a song and I have recorded it with iPod Touch.
Since 2005, I have been visiting Japan regularly.. From the beginning, I was impressed to see the sustainable lifestyle and culture of Japan. Nevertheless, I was doubted about the margin between cities and rural. Therefore, I was interested to see Japanese real village and rural life. Is it same as city life with a standard life and citizen rights? At last, today I have got change to see by the invitation of Homma San in his village house.
Before that, I also attempted to see the Japanese village, but could not identify properly. When I have asked to my Japanese friends, I want to Japanese village, they have answered it is a village! I was surprised and said, why you say it village. It is just like a city of Bangladesh. They have said, it is village, as here is no commercial building and have crop field. In city can never can see crop field, but have many car, busyness, and busy-ness!
I am impressed to see Homma san house, it is just like a Zen Garden (mini universe ). Both his wife and he don’t like to eat meat ( but not fully vegetarian, fond of fish). When they understand Bangladeshi people like meat, his wife arrange swiftly for me ‘Chicken fry’, but I was already satisfied with tobonno fish soup, dikon salada, zagaiom, rice-ball etc. The common experiences, Japanese food makes sanctification from eye to mouth, mouth to stomach. Every people become slow and humble during eating in Japan. I am impressed to heavenly food beauty and thankful motivation.
Homma san now 70 years and his wife 64 but still look young. His testimony, young time I was a promotional officer and could not give proper time to family. Now I can give as I live in village and I have huge time. However, my children grown, they have moved to the city…. I always try to cultivate my own vegetable by myself, however as I do not eat fast-food and meat much, I have and can save much money. Now I am relaxed. I love my life. Eating own grown food is very testy as it is the result of love. However, I regret as I could not love as they wanted. But they may will U-Turn and will back village like me. I cannot find any reason to live a busy city as we have most of things in village for good life.
I am daunted to see two computers in Homma san’s house. Both of them are used to operate regularly computer and internet from the countryside ( 40 km far from city office ) . They do blogging on their life experiences and vision for a better life and society. They have connected and united with the world, living with satisfactions and happiness. As the common culture and reality of Japanese family, they also do not have housemade and driver. They do all works including cooking, cleaning, driving, fishing, cultivation and a part-time job by themselves without any complain, hesitation and total ownership.
My youngest son, Koon chan is excited with balloons in Sado house in Japan. Recently he has become excited to see new toy and new food and call with sound.
Hotaru (ほたる)is the firefly watching festival regularly organized in Sado Island in Japan. All family members and I have joined in the event. We enjoy firefly lighting in a channel never-by forest with huge number community members. Joining a special event with children is a Japanese life. To enjoy dinar in open year, however brought yaki soba, Sausage, Yakitori and fresh carb. However after dinar and enjoy fly fighting festival, we took bath in Spa and Ahuro. I like and enjoy Japanese sustainable rural life.
