QUOTE(deodorant @ Feb 13 2017, 02:16 PM) If you search for articles saying Japan is safe and seafood isn't affected by radiation and safe to eat, you will find them. i concur with this...If you search for articles saying the irradiated water has spread all over the world and cause mutations in fish and sealife, you will find them too. Psychologists have a concept called "confirmation bias" i.e. people tend to find and remember/believe stories, articles & information that suits their own beliefs. For me, it's simple. I visit Japan two weeks a year (max); Japanese people eat 25times as much so-called irradiated food and get exposed to 25times as much radiation, but I don't see any widespread occurrences of mutated babies or drop in birth rate attributed to the radiation. So why should I be worried? if really the radiation is a concern on seafood...then why would the japs still eating their own harvested seafood ? |

QUOTE(GiantChockyStick @ Feb 14 2017, 03:33 PM) Thanks bro Shinkansen ticket can just buy in Tokyo. You will be flying back to KL from Tokyo? Also looking at your schedule of just 7 days, why not just stay in just Nagoya or Tokyo? With a 7 month old baby, it will really be a hassle.

KL to Nagoya flight ticket cheaper compare KL to Tokyo, plan to visit both city , and the main reason is to visit Tokyo Disney Land 1) sightseeing Nagoya 2) Mount Fuji 3) Tokyo Disneyland i think 7 days would be sufficient right? |

Sufficient really depends on you and what you want to see. And dont forget you are travelling with a baby and to go to so many places will be a hassle. |

QUOTE(aspartame @ Feb 15 2017, 02:00 AM) Fukushima If it worries you so much then you should not visit. No point having a vacation and then having to worry all about radiation. There is so much of this news out there and you dont know who to believe. Most of my friends who have been here for a number of years, just continue their lives as usual even though we do talk about it in our weekly meetup.According to link above, indeed, radiation reading at highest level!!!!!!!!!!!!!Still safe to visit?? |

I traveled 4 cities ( and 2 towns ) in 11 days visit, obviously too rush but still ok if you know what you want to visit/experience.QUOTE(look416 @ Feb 15 2017, 09:20 AM) You just look at the prime minister, if the prime minister still stays in Japan, then Japan is safe to stay. Simple theory. Dont underestimate Japanese's patriotism, google Fukushima_50 I think depends on how scare you are. I remember report that tap water in Tokyo last year still have abnormally high dangerous substance. However we are expose to dangerous substance daily everywhere in modern cities, the risk of visit Tokyo only elevated tiny tiny bits. |
