The Rescue South Africa has sent a team of forty people to assist with the search and rescue mission in Japan.
The majority of the team members who are on their way to Japan today are from the Western Cape.
MEC of Local Government, Environmental Affairs and Development Planning Anton Bredell says he is excited that the team is led by Colin Deiner who is the Chief Director of Disaster Management and Fire Brigade Services and Head of the Western Cape Provincial Disaster Management Centre.
Meanwhile Earth life Africa’s Tristen Taylor says the failure of the cooling systems at four nuclear reactors in north eastern Japan is proof that nuclear power is dangerous.
Taylor also said the South African government should think twice about the future of the Koeberg nuclear plant outside Cape Town.
