原発輸出に対するベトナム人有志から日本政府宛抗議文の取り扱いについて（要請）
先日、グエン・スアン・ジエン氏らベトナム人有志 453 名が署名した抗議文書（別添）が日本政府宛に提出されました。抗議文書の内容は、日本のベトナムへの原発輸出に関するもので、日本の技術を持ってしても事故を防げず、日本では多くの人々が原発に強い懸念を持っていると指摘、日本国内の商業用原発 50 基がすべて停止したことにも触れた上で、日本政府がベトナムの原発建設を支援するのは無責任、もしくは非人間的、不道徳な行動だ、などと批判しています。5 月 18 日、同氏の勤務する研究所に傷病兵をなのるグループが乱入し、同氏を威嚇、文書の削除を求めました。また、最近になって同氏に対してハノイ市の監察に出頭命令が出され、その後、同氏のブログが閉鎖されました。
福島原発事故の悲惨で深刻な事故は未だ収束せず、多くの人々が苦しんでいいます。この事故の経験を踏まえ、私たち日本の市民は、再稼働に反対し、原発依存からの一刻も早い脱却を望んでいます。日本の国内において、原発の安全性に対する疑念が高まり、放射性廃棄物の処理の解決のめどはつかず、原子力ムラによる政治・経済の支配が横行しています。麻薬のような原子力依存から抜け出すことを求めて多くの心ある市民が声を上げています。
私たちは、同じアジアの同胞として、ベトナムがこの危険な技術を導入することにより、日本と同じ過ちを繰り返し、ベトナムの人たちが、原発に依存し、危険と隣り合わせの生活を送らざるをえなくなることを憂いております。
原発はベトナムの国民ばかりか周辺国の住民に多大なリスクを負わせることになります。一部の日本の産業界の利益のために、ベトナムへの原発輸出を強行することは、日本にとっては大きな汚点となるでしょう。
私たちは、グエン・スアン・ジエン氏らベトナムの市民たちが、勇気をもってこのような文書を日本政府に提出したことに深い敬意と共感の意を表明します。
私たちは、日本政府に対しては、この文書を誠意をもって検討し、その回答を示すように求めます。また、
日越両政府に対して、本文書を発出したことにより、グエン・スアン・ジエン氏ら署名者がいかなる不利益をうけないように必要な措置を講ずることを求めます。
日本の市民社会・国際社会は、本件を注意深く見守っております。両政府が、この命がけの要請に対して真摯に対応することを切に要望いたします。

（別添）PROTEST AGAINST THE JAPANESE GOVERNMENT ON PROVIDING FINANCIAL AIDS TO
BUILD NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS IN VIETNAM, AND DEMAND AN IMMEDIATECANCELLATION OF THIS IMMORAL AND DISCRIMINATORY ACT.
Dear Prime Minister,On 4 May 2012,Japan’s Hokkaido Electric Power Co shut down the last nuclear power plant of the 54
such facilities inJapan. This action has officially ceased the production of electricity by means ofnuclear fission from Uranium in all ofJapan.
The decision of Japanese government came as the result of the catastrophic near “meltdown” explosionand emission of deadly radioactive materials from the nuclear power plant in Fukushima Daiichi after
the severe earthquake and Tsunami inFukushimaregion in 11 March 2011.
The catastrophic disaster of theFukushimanuclear plant has been affecting millions of Japanese livingin the vicinity of this power plant stretching as far as 100km or more from the plant in the short term
and the whole ofJapanas well the East Asian region, not to say around the world, for many years tocome. This catastrophic disaster was just short of the severity of the scale of catastrophic nuclear power
plant explosion in Chernobyl in 1986 which killed hundreds of thousands of Russian people in the thenSoviet Union, ruined the life of many more millions people in Russia, Ukrainian for many generations
and contaminated a vast area of Northern Europe with deadly radioactive materials for thousands ofyears.
Even with the highly advanced Japanese nuclear technology comparing with the rest of the world andthe strict safety requirements and controls put in place by the Japanese government and her people
upon the nuclear power industries, the seems to be impossible nuclear accident would ever occur, evena small mishap, did happen in catastrophic scales within the Fukushima nuclear complex. This hascaused grave concerns from the population ofJapan.
People of Japanstrongly demanded the whole nuclear power plant scheme to cease operation and nomore nuclear power plant to be built in Japan. The Japanese government and Parliament have acted
promptly and decisively, resulting with all operational nuclear power plants in Japan have now stopped
operation. The last plant, the 54th nuclear power plant, ceased operation on 4 May 2012. Similaractions have been taking place to rid off nuclear plants inGermany andSwitzerland. TheUS had
stopped building new nuclear power plants even before this terrible accident, and many other countries
have since vowed to no longer engage with nuclear power.
The Japanese government have decided to close all their 54 nuclear power plants after the catastrophic
disaster of the Fukushima nuclear power plant, therefore they must not give financial assistances aswell as allowing Japanese companies to sell or build nuclear power plants to other countries around theworld.
On contrary to the decision to stop all existing nuclear power plants as well as any plant to build newplant in the future inside Japan for fear of accidents from those nuclear power plants affecting thehealth and well-being of its people as well as the country’s economy, the government of Japan recently
approved the program of assisting and aiding Vietnam to build a nuclear power plant in Phan Rang,
Ninh Thuan Province.

This is an irresponsible action if not an inhuman and immoral action of the Japanese government
toVietnamand her people. This is a blatant act of discrimination against the welfare and safety ofVietnamese people in comparing with the people inJapan, if not to be considered as an unlawful act andagainst human beings, morally. If the government ofJapanhad decided to close all its 54 nuclear power
plants, they must not give financial assistance as well as not allow Japanese companies to sell or build
nuclear power plants in other countries.
We, the concerned Vietnamese from inside and outside ofVietnam, write this letter to you to protest
against your government’s decision on giving aids to the Vietnamese government to build a nuclear
power plant inVietnam. We strongly urge you and your government to reverse immediately thisdiscriminative, irresponsible and immoral act.
Sincerely yours
On behalf of concerned VietnameseProf Nguyen The Hung, Dr Nguyen Xuan Dien, Nguyen Hung.
