Thank you very much for all of your overwhelming emails inquiring about the safety of my family.
We are all doing well. I live in Saitama Prefecture, which is located north of Tokyo.Fortunately,
this region sustained minimal damage from the earthquake.However, we all know that it will take
a very long time for the entire country to recover from this destructive event.We are all trying
our best to manage under these difficult circumstances. Currently, we have the normal usage of
water and gas, but there is the scheduled electrical outage for three hours each day. Although
the overall supply of food is low, there is still enough for everyone to purchase what they need.
As you know, the major issue now is the nuclear power plant and all we can do is wait and see
and hope that the issue is resolved as quickly as possible.Thank you again for all of your thoughts
and prayers. Your kindness provides us with much support and strengths.
