available all the information we got from that call and from our monitoring systems so i think we hope that people can understand that the situation right now we have to explain and the manner in which people can easily understand the situation that's our task there's a perception out there that the quality of information that's coming from the government isn't what it needs to be what do you think this perception exists. it's very difficult to understand for ordinary people how. dangerous those numbers are we think that except for places very close to the nuclear power plants because she made eighty no big risk for the. ordinary people so we should make them understand that point now we were in fukushima just a bit ago and there are some spots that we measured personally where the radiation
2:32 am
levels are one thousand times the safely recommended dose there are mothers who are concerned that their children go by these hot spots where you have to say to these mothers our government especially mystery of. education is in charge of monitoring all of us out of japan and they. publish that they obtained throughout japan and. they asked nuclear safety commission to evaluate and there that so and you can see if the commission is publicizing their comments every day i think the problem for mothers and. is that it's difficult to understand how safe or how dangerous those numbers are and it's basically it is said that the real. those is more dangerous for children and that's the point that we should
2:33 am
. make people understand more by providing them easily understand are you planning to expand any of the existing evacuation zones we don't have a. plan to change evacuation area. radical drastic very but only example exception is the hotspots we should attack take care of the people living in those places but except for that for them we don't think that we need to change the area evacuation currently the accepted all level is at twenty micro sieverts. which those standards were actually raised to twenty micro sieverts from one micro siebert do you think it's responsible to actually change the standards so that. they are now considered to be safe we do not
2:34 am
say that. twenty meters see that it is safe but. it's. standard in this type of emergency situation from a personal standpoint are you worried about the situation in japan in this country yes of course i'm worried about the people situation that they're afraid of those radiation those. looking back at the past three months what do you think that the japanese government could have done better to handle this tragedy to give people accurate information in a manner easy to understand for them so that's their first point and secondly we should explain what we need to do for. existing nuclear power plants. which people are worried the budget panel.
2:35 am
or though they are quite safe right now. what do you think the government has done well in the situation taking the other side we assumed the worst case is and we said. twenty kilometers radius from. eighty and we expanded. the region vacated the region i think we have we. said evacuations on based on the scientific that is it possible to open up the reaction to the international community we published our report to. the international atomic energy organization. believes entry it is written in. both japanese and english so you can. read from our website our prime minister's office website. report detailed report right after the
2:36 am
extent we published. or that in english or through our website but scientists say there needs to be more cooperation with outside agencies and outside governments would you say to these critics they don't know that fact and actually. from the time of the accident we have been consulted with. the united us. it's france and russia and other countries in terms of technical support. machine ready to support and we crossly exchanged information regarding the status of plants and possible measures to take can you give me some examples of types of cooperation or equipment that you have received from other countries and we get. us
2:37 am
now to seize support in technical issues and as you know. france and the curia unknown of the united states provided. equipment and technical support of all water purifier in the system russia of course provided technical support we took the best. best actions. based on the international support how much information is coming from tepco and the government how much do you say they know about the current situation and then how much of that information is being relayed to the public so on that same scale. what does the government know from tepco and what does the public know from the government. i think it's a very rough estimate and my personal one. but i think eighty percent. is known by the government and. that twenty percent is for example.
2:38 am
the level of. water and containment vessels and how that water came from those visitors to the buildings as a stagnant water those as a sample was known for us and we published we have been publishing all the infamous. and we get but. it may be difficult for the ordinary people to understand so i. make. the score. for the ordinary people of say. seventy percent. japan a country which has faced a two nuclear tragedies with your shimon nagasaki there are many critics out there
2:39 am
who say that it's irresponsible for a country that has experienced such tragedy with the nuclear field to be building nuclear plants. in an area that may be unstable seismically known to have earthquakes what's your response to this so far. we have a forty years of more than forty years of history of safe usage of. how to make energy. and this was caused by the unprecedented a tsunami. very heights and i mean nobody. expected that size of a tsunami so you can bring us that you failed but this was foreseen by anybody all over the world of course we are responsible for this accident but it should be closely reviewed whether we should we could
2:40 am
have taken any other measures to prevent this are you saying that you couldn't have done anything better it's of course it's not perfect therefore we had an accident. but based we. designed our plants and energy system based on the best knowledge of the human humankind and mankind. so that's the way japan is doing those scientific meetings so. we. we don't. we should carefully review. what caused the situation and as of right now can you imagine a future japan without nuclear energy moving away from atomic energy altogether and right now no we depend thirty percent of. if the resource.
2:41 am
on nuclear energy so we have to use nuclear energy in the near future at least. seventy six hours of intense fighting. six thousand desert of beach front battlefields several kilometers long. and now there is only one person who cares. to see we are surrounded by garbage everywhere but also there are . on this beach which of course is the very most appropriate city signification i assemble everything that's wrong with our goddamn government allowing not only garbage but torture way where so many guys died. a new battle is going

were leipheimer top of the third fastest time just thirteen seconds behind country lara to pick on a go to the title by an agonizingly slim margin dutchman stephen christ by completing the podium in switzerland. and finally russia's rugby team is gearing up for a first ever world cup appearance this autumn in new zealand and we caught up with the secretary general of the international rugby board on a recent trip to moscow and he took the time to answer a few questions. about the upcoming finals. we've actually done very well despite the economic downturn. ticket sales have been very good for rugby around the world governments want to invest in having big rugby tournaments in their countries because they see how beneficial it is there were three hundred fifty thousand visitors who came to france for rebel cup two thousand
2:53 am
and seven will be about eighty five thousand coming to new zealand for a rule cup two thousand and eleven are also much cheaper to run as an event in the olympics or the fifa soccer world cup so yes of course the economic downturn affects everyone but not as much as perhaps other sports have been affected. and we chose to world cups at the same time two fifteen which is in england and to nineteen which is in japan our process works big stream the well you know rugby is a very clean sport we don't have issues that perhaps other sports might have so we're very happy with the process and very happy also that in two nineteen we're branching out into new territory for rugby world cup will be the first time that hasn't been held in one of the traditional rugby countries and so that's pretty exciting for us.
2:54 am
the gap has been now airing over over the last two world cups that's one of the reasons why we've been investing so much in the tear two and tier three countries to ensure that they have the same sort of chance as the tier one countries the same sort of fitness training the same sort of analysis of video so that they can be more or less one up on a par before they get to the to the rugby world cup rugby is a pretty unforgiving game in soccer it's easy to pack your defense and to keep the score down in row. b. maybe you can stay level for sixty minutes or so but the last twenty minutes really can really tell. i think the best thing is for people to be able to see it because once they see it they fall in love with it get as much of international rugby on television as you possibly can show people the game get a bull in their hands and get them to play the main thing for the long term future is to get it in schools because we know when people play they love it and they go

on to watch it. interesting stuff that is all the sports we've got more. culture is the same i think taxpayers' money coming to what i see you have a real mystery africa in the new great game outside interest in this continent is the man's rich in natural resources and a growing middle class china at the u.s. .
