Ngo-2011, inyikima kunye netsunami zadlula eJapan. Phantse abantu abayi-16,000 basweleka ngexesha lentlekele yendalo kwaye uninzi loluntu kwilizwe lonke alukabikho.

Kodwa enye idolophu yaseJapan eselunxwemeni ijongana nosizi lwayo ngendlela eyahlukileyo-umnquba omhlophe onemigangatho yeglasi. Umnxeba wefowuni, onefowuni ejikelezayo kuphela, uye waba yindawo ethandwayo kubahlali abajongene nentlungu. Ihleli phezu kwenduli enengca eOtsuchi, ejonge kuLwandlekazi lwePasifiki.

IOtsuchi yidolophu ebhujiswe kwintlekele. Ummandla uphela uzimele ngaphakathi kwemizuzu engama-30 kunye neepesenti ezili-10 zabemi bedolophu babulawa.

Kodwa kunyaka omnye ngaphambi kwale ntlekele, u-Itaru Sasaki wafaka umnxeba egadini yakhe ukuze azincede adlule emva kokusweleka komzala wakhe. Kuba iingcinga zam azinakuthunyelwa kumnxeba oqhelekileyo, uSasaki uxelelwe Ubomi baseMelika ngoSeptemba. Bendifuna baphathwe ngumoya.

Idokodo sele lifowuni yomoya kwaye sele iluhlobo lokundwendwela kwabo bajongana nokusweleka komntu omthandayo. Kwiminyaka emithathu emva kwentlekele, umnquba wamkela iindwendwe ezingaphezu kwe-10,000, ngokweengxelo zalapha .

Abanye beza benze umnxeba owodwa okhethekileyo. Abanye batyelela rhoqo abafowunela abafileyo ababathandayo kwaye babazalise.

Kwiminyaka ukusukela oko yaba yindawo yokundwendwela, ifowuni yomoya ibisisazulu sabo bobabini Uxwebhu lweTV kwaye ingxelo ekhethekileyo yeNPR .

Kwabo banqwenela ukutyelela, uOtsuchi ifikeleleka eTokyo ngololiwe ohamba ngesantya esiphezulu okanye iiyure ezisixhenxe zokukhwela imoto. Indawo yeminxeba imi phezu kwentaba ngaphandle nje kwesixeko.
