New Japan disaster agency draws backlash over 'self-help' remarks

Original: 細野 豪志

Japan's new Disaster Management Agency launched, with minister Goshi Hosono at its helm, but its first day is already controversial. The agency acknowledged the 'limits of administration' and asked citizens to prepare for self-reliance in disasters, while a promotional video has drawn sharp criticism online. Hosono, also Reconstruction Minister, says he will apply his Fukushima experience to the new post, includingcontroversy over decontaminated soil reuse.

Why now: The agency's launch-day messaging about 'limits of administration' and its PR video sparked immediate public criticism.
