News of the recovery efforts are still hard to find in English but here are a few links to recent reports , some of them contain links to earlier stories and photos . We are approaching six months since the earthquake and Tsunami of March 11th and normally I would hope that the media would remind the world what happened and of the plight of the survivours. However six months to the day from March 11th will also be the 10th anniversary of the attack on the World Trade Centre which will understandably occupy the headlines .
I hope that some of the media in the west see fit to remember the scale of the disaster in Japan and it's effect on many thousands of ordinary people and don't just focus on the Fukushima crisis .
