3.11 Miscellaneous Thoughts - bureaucracy

Since the accident of March 11, Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, the biggest points I wondered were, why TEPCO do not have capacity to converge accidents, why the Japanese government and the Committee of Nuclear Safety and Conservation coud not give proper guidance for the Tokyo Electric Power Co..

Of course, in almost over half of the northeastern region, they had to rescue the refugees, in addition to those bigs they had to rebuild the infrastructure, rescue the victim, also search for a body.

Or bureaucracy is that when things go well is good but it is useless in an emergency? Alternatively, the real purpose of the bureaucracy might be a different thing than protecting the public?
