Are you affected by the Japanese earthquake?
Hello, this is James Harrod from the BBC World Service daily interactive show “World Have Your Say”. We are focusing today on the earthquake in Japan for today’s show.
The Japanese authorities have ordered one of the world’s biggest nuclear plants to remain shut after an earthquake caused it to leak radioactive material. More than 12,000 people are in shelters after their homes and businesses were wrecked by Monday’s earthquake.
Are you near the quake site? Are you worried about the nuclear leak? Were you or your family affected by what happened? If so, we’d really like to speak to you on our show at 1700GMT.
You can email me : james.harrod@bbc.co.uk
Or call the office and we’ll call you straight back: +44 207 557 0635
I am not personally affected by the earthquake.But I am worried about the secretive surrounding the nuclear spill.
