To illustrate how idiotic it was for KMT to push for resuming nuclear power plant 4, and banning food import from Japan at the same time, here’s a map (based on maps from thetruesize.com and www.comparea.org) of the proposed food ban compared to Taiwan.
Proposition 9 wants to ban food products (even if they weren’t grown there) from Fukushima, Ibaraki, Tochigi, Gunma and Chiba, an area pretty much identical to the size of Taiwan. The yellow star marks the location of Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.
If the KMT believe that a nuclear disaster would effect food production for an area near the size of Taiwan itself, resuming any nuclear power plant is idiotic, Especially when Taiwan is equally prone to earthquakes and tsunamis, and any nuclear disaster would spell doom for the entire agriculture industry here on this island.
