Volunteer report: 9 July 2011 vol.2 - Katsurashima, Urato Islands -

(Mr. F・Age:32 ・ Male   Tokyo resident)

 

katsurashima12.jpgWe helped with the transportation and production of bamboo materials for the rafts used in oyster cultivation. Due to land subsidence, the port becomes inundated with water twice a day. Although the smiles and laughter of the people of Katsurajima trying to raise their own spirits didn't die out, within this positive atmosphere there were voices of concern that more people are needed to help make the rafts necessary for seaweed and oyster cultivation.

Volunteer report: 9 July 2011 vol.1 - Katsurashiima, Urato Islands -

Details of activity:Helping the fishermen who cultivate seaweed (shearing ropes used for rafts)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Mr. S ・Age:41・Male Tokyo resident)

katsurashima11.jpgOur activities on the island involved mainly physical work (under the guidance of fishermen) such transporting bamboo which are used to make the rafts necessary for oyster and seaweed cultivation, as well as helping with the manufacture process for ropes also used in raft making. 
The rafts have been wrecked twice in the past year with the Chile earthquake, and now the Tohoku Earthquake of 11 March. Although the plan was to produce 800 rafts by the autumn, currently there are 400, which is only half the required amount, and people are working without a break.

Soon a Shinto ceremony to purify the site will be held, and debris-removal work will also begin in earnest.

We need to continue to directly help those who experienced extensive damage, and I hope that this can help strengthen the ties between the people of Tohoku.

Volunteer report: 1 July 2011 vol.2 - Katsurashiima, Urato Islands -

Details of activity:Helping the fishermen who cultivate seaweed (Shearing ropes used for rafts)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Mr. A ・Age:26 ・ Male   Tokyo resident)

What I felt when I came into contact with the people at the site is that they are all have a positive outlook. Everything they had spent their time and effort on until now has all fallen apart and there is no other way but to start building their lives again from scratch. Electricity only started coming through at the beginning of May, and there being no hospital, the island residents told us warmly how grateful they were for us to come week after week to volunteer.

 

I felt strongly that despite being in difficult circumstances, in order to be able to live alongside the beautiful sea again, it is necessary to recognize what needs to be done and carry it out. When living in urban areas there is always a tendency to have sparse interaction with neighbours, but in Katsurajima the whole town is like one big family, and regardless of the fact that there was a huge earthquake disaster it felt steeped in a warm atmosphere.
