Elsewhere on the BBC http://www.bbc.co.uk/search/news/?q=japan%202011%20earth%20quake Editor's Choice Japan marks quake and tsunami anniversary Japan is marking the first anniversary of the devastating earthquake and tsunami which struck the north-eastern coast, leaving 20,000 dead or missing. The magnitude 9.0 quake, Japan's most powerful since records began, also triggered a serious nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant. Thousands of people were evacuated as radiation leaked from the plant. There were memorial services, and a minute's silence was observed at the moment the quake hit, 14:46 local time. The main memorial ceremony was held at Tokyo's National Theatre, attended by Japan's Emperor Akihito, Empress Michiko and Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda. "We shall not let our memory of the disasters fade," the 78-year-old emperor said in a brief televised address. "I hope all the people will keep the victims in their hearts." Prime Minister Noda pledged to rebuild so that Japan could be reborn "as an even better place". Much of Japan came to a standstill as the minute of silence was observed. Warning sirens sounded across the north-east of the country at the precise time the quake struck, 14:46 local time (05:46 GMT). Bells and prayers also reverberated across the country Nuclear fears The earthquake struck about 400km (250 miles) north-east of Tokyo on 11 March 2011. Shortly after the quake, an immense surge of water enveloped the northeastern coast as a tsunami swept cars, ships, and buildings away, crushing coastal communities.

In the Fukushima prefecture, where the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant is located, the impact of the disaster was particularly acute. 2 Slow recovery? But correspondents say that Japan is still dealing with the economic and political fallout of the disaster. Japan's prime minister at the time of the disaster, Naoto Kan, resigned months later. A survivor mourns her father in Rikuzentakata He had been criticised for failing to show leadership during the nuclear crisis after the quake. The nuclear crisis also revealed serious flaws in the nuclear industry's regulatory systems and safety standards. Although much of the debris has been cleared, survivors from the devastated north-east have complained about slow recovery efforts. The Japanese authorities believe thereconstruction will cost more than 23 trillion yen (£181bn) over a decade. 3
