Message from JSME to all victims in the disaster

March 2011

The Tohoku-Pacific Ocean earthquake with an unprecedented magnitude of 9.0 has caused devastating damage to Tohoku area in Japan. The ensuing tsunami wreaked destruction on the coastal area and the enormous numbers of precious lives were lost. Critical damage has also been incurred at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station.

On behalf of our members and staff, JSME expresses its sincere condolences to all those who have lost loved ones and to our members affected by this disaster. We pray for all of the souls of the dead by the historic earthquake and tsunami.

Facing up to this huge earthquake we recognize our duty to the society and will launch activities and devote every effort to the earliest reconstruction from the disaster.

We received many heartfelt messages from the related foreign societies and friends worldwide to express their sympathies. We are more than grateful for their kind thoughts and encouragements.
We sincerely wish that the devastated area will be reconstructed as soon as possible and the safety and relief for their lives will be secured.
