Japan seems to overcome the nuclear tragedy, making small steps to recovery. A first step was made by the Prime Minister of Japan, Mr. Naoto Kan. In July this year, Mr. Naoto Kan called for a long-term and careful effort to scale back the nation's reliance on nuclear power over the next four decades and make more use of solar energy and other renewable power sources, suggesting that Japan's gouvernment should abolish the plans to build another 14 reactors by 2030.
Mr. Yukiya Amano, head of the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) says the world will continue to generate “more, not less, nuclear power – despite the disaster at Fukushima. (…) There are many countries reconsidering the need for nuclear power plants, like Germany for example. But due to issues such as global warming the fact is there’ll be a gradual increase in demand for nuclear energy. So the important thing is that the IAEA is committed to ensuring safety,” said the organization’s head chief.

On Monday the IAEA’s head visited the site at Fukushima, where he noted the progress made in the clean-up operation. Four of the plant’s six reactors were seriously damaged by the tsunami in March, but it will take another ten years to dismantle them.
The world’s worst nuclear accident in 25 years has put a brake on atomic power in Japan.
Another step to recovery in is made by the Hiroshima Gov. Mr. Hidehiko Yuzaki who announced a global peace plan, declaring it is time for the city of Hiroshima to move beyond its status as tragic symbol to become "an active contributor to the attainment of global peace and a future without nuclear weapons (...) Hiroshima is a place that not only experienced total annihilation, but managed to rebuild itself from the ashes as well" - he told reporters on July 21 at the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan (FCCJ) in Tokyo, as he unveiled the plan ahead of the 66th anniversary of the U.S. atomic bombing (celebrated on the 6th of August).

Mr. Hidehiko Yuzaki said the eight-member "A Hiroshima for Global Peace" committee led by Mr. Yasushi Akashi - former U.N. undersecretary general for Public relations, disarmament affairs and humanitarian affairs - will finalize the peace plan in October, before the governor visits the United Nations in New York in November. He said U.N. Secretary General Mr. Ban Ki-moon supports the Hiroshima initiative and the committee members include former U.S. Defense Secretary Mr. William Perry, former Australian Foreign Minister Mr. Gareth Evans and former Japanese Foreign Minister Mr. Yoriko Kawaguchi.
Exports from Japan registered the biggest increase in 30 years, helping the second world economy to recover from recession.
Japanese exports rose 45.3 percent to 5.13 trillion yen (56 billion dollars), the sharpest increase in April 1980, amid increasing foreign demand for cars and electronics products in Japan.
Japan's trade surplus in February rose to 651 billion yen (7.2 billion U.S. dollars) from 70.8 billion yen a year earlier.
Imports also rose by 29.5 percent amid higher prices for oil and nonferrous metals.
Against the reality aging society, the government drafted an economic growth strategy based on three pillars:
* Innovative (increasing share of R & D activities by allocating additional budgets, promote investments in this sector based on improving the tax system and ubiquitous technologies and robots by applying IT
* Global Component (boost negotiations with WTO, increasing transparency in order to attract foreign investment, increase international competitiveness of Japanese capital and financial markets);
* Increasing labor force participation (raising the retirement age, pension system and improving the system of permanent employment, rehabilitation and support for seniors skills young generation).
