TITILE:Surrounded Fumio Kishida

The idea of the work

According to the Japan Broadcasting Association (NHK), on January 21, water vapor leaked from the cooling water pump pipeline of Unit 1 of Japan’s Takahama Nuclear Power Plant. A few hours later, another cooling water leak occurred in another cooling water pump of the nuclear power plant.
According to reports, on the morning of the 22nd local time, the supply of reactor cooling water was once reduced to 40% of normal levels in order to repair the problem water pump.
Japan’s Kansai Electric Power Company, which manages the Takahama Nuclear Power Plant, said that a series of failures did not cause any injuries. The leaked cooling water did not contain radioactive substances and did not cause environmental radiation problems.
According to reports, the No. 1 unit of the Takahama Nuclear Power Plant that failed has been in operation for 50 years and is one of the oldest nuclear power plants still in use in Japan. After the Fukushima Daiichi accident in 2011, the Takahama Nuclear Power Plant was out of operation for about 12 years before restarting in 2023.
