Japan diverts Tsunami monies to whaling
Monday, December 12. 2011
So the Japanese Government has confirmed that its diverting much needed relief monies to help the Antarctic industrial whaling fleet.
The government is using ¥2.3 billion from a supplementary budget for tsunami reconstruction to fund its annual whaling. The Southern whaling expedition left Shimonoseki, Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan on Tuesday.
I guess if I was any country or individual that has donated money to the disaster relief efforts in Japan, I might wish to ask for my money back. This is putting politics and ideology before rebuilding and possibly misrepresenting what donors meant their monies to go to.
