On June 7, 2012, about 70 women including 10 women from Fukushima did a "die-in" in front of the Prime Minister's official residence to protest the restart of Ooi Nuclear Power Plant [in Fukui prefecture]. Before the die-in, 10 Fukushima women visited the Cabinet Office and met with officials to submit a letter of requests addressed to Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda.This video clip shows the words from the Fukushima women and part of the die-in.On the very next day, June 8, 2012, Prime Minister Noda held a press conference and declared he would restart Ooi Nuclear Power Plant.The original video by OurPlanet-TV: http://youtu.be/ODNhDhw_-VYTranslation and captioning by tokyobrowntabby.Video editing by sievert311 (http://www.youtube.com/user/sievert311).
