Kwa: Purezidenti wa US a Joe Biden
Ife, omwe tasainidwa, tikufuna kupereka chithandizo chathu champhamvu kwa Kazembe wa Okinawa, Denny Tamaki, ndi nzika zaku Okinawa, komanso pempho lawo loti kutsekedwa kwa nyumba yomenyera ndege yaku US ku Henoko.
Pa Januwale 13th 2021, Bwanamkubwa Tamaki adatumiza kalata kwa Purezidenti Biden (wotsekedwa) kufotokoza zifukwa zambiri zomwe ntchito yomanga ndege ku Henoko iyenera kuthetsedwa, kuphatikiza:
Kutsutsa koopsa ndi anthu amtundu waku Okinawan. Pa referendum ya prefectural, 71.7% adavota motsutsana ndi ntchitoyi. Pakhala pali ziwonetsero zosalekeza komanso anthu akumenya njala.
Kuthekera kwaukadaulo. Dongosolo lakumanga likufuna ntchito yayikulu yobwezeretsa malo, koma nyanja yomwe ikubwezeretsedwako ndiyofewa ngati mayonesi ndipo imabweretsa zovuta zazikulu zaumisiri zomwe zapangitsa kuti tsiku lomaliza likankhidwe kuyambira 2014 mpaka 2030 ndikuwononga $ 3.3 biliyoni mpaka $ 8.7 biliyoni. Akatswiri ena samakhulupirira kuti ndizotheka kumanga. Ngakhale a Mark Cancian a Center for Strategic and International Study (CSIS) anamaliza ndi lipoti lotengera zomwe zikuchitika kuti mwina sizingatheke kuti ntchitoyi ithe. [1] Komanso, malowa ndi ovuta ndi zivomezi. Pali vuto lomwe lili patsamba lino. [2]
Zowonongeka zosawonongeka zachilengedwe. Dera lamadzi lomwe likubwezeretsedwanso ndilapadera pazosiyanasiyana zachilengedwe ndipo ndi kwawo kwa nyama zam'madzi zomwe zatsala pang'ono kutha monga ma dugong.
United States ili ndi malo 119 ankhondo ku Japan. Okinawa, yomwe imangopanga 0.6% yokha ya malo onse aku Japan ili ndi 70% ya malowa, omwe amakhala 20% pachilumba chaching'ono ichi. Kwa zaka makumi ambiri, anthu aku Okinawa azunzidwa ndi gulu lankhondo. Asitikali aku US avulaza kale ngozi za ndege, zolakwa za anthu ogwira ntchito ku US ndikuwononga chilengedwe chachikulu ndi zinthu zapoizoni monga PFAS. Zomwe US sangachite ndikusiya kuyimikanso pachilumbachi.

Kutsekedwa: Kazembe wa Chigawo cha Okinawa, Japan, Denny Tamaki, kalata yopita kwa Purezidenti-wosankha Biden ndi Wachiwiri kwa Purezidenti-Electris Harris, wa 13 Januware 2021:
Wokondedwa Purezidenti-Wosankhidwa Biden ndi Wachiwiri kwa Purezidenti-Wosankhidwa Harris,
M'malo mwa anthu 1.45 miliyoni a ku Okinawa, Japan, ndikufuna ndikuthokozeni posankhidwa kukhala Purezidenti Wotsatira ndi Wachiwiri kwa Purezidenti wa United States. Tikuyamikira ntchito zazikuluzikulu zaku United States pachitetezo cha dziko la Japan komanso pamtendere ndi bata ku East Asia.
Anthu ambiri ku United States ali ndiubwenzi wapamtima ndi Okinawa. Mwachitsanzo, bungwe la Okinawa Association of America ku State of California lili ndi mamembala ochulukirapo ku United States, ndipo lafika mamembala opitilira 1,000. Momwemonso, pafupifupi anthu 50,000 ku State of Hawaii ali ndi makolo aku Okinawan kudzera pakusamukira. Anthu aku Okinawa alimbikitsanso chikhalidwe chawo ndikuphatikizanso chikhalidwe chaku America nkhondo yachiwiri yapadziko lonse itatha. Izi zikuyimira kulumikizana kwamphamvu, kokhazikika m'mbiri pakati pa United States ndi Okinawa, ndipo ndikuyembekeza kukhazikitsa ubale wapamtima ndi Administration wanu.
Ndikumvetsetsa kuti ubale pakati pa Japan ndi US, kuphatikiza mgwirizano wamayiko awiri, zathandizira kwambiri ku chitetezo cha dziko la Japan komanso mtendere ndi bata ku East Asia. Pakadali pano, Okinawa watenga gawo lalikulu kwambiri pothandizira mgwirizanowu. Malo opitilira 70% azankhondo omwe amagwiritsidwa ntchito ndi asitikali aku US ku Japan (kuphatikiza Kadena Air Base) amangoyang'ana ku Okinawa, ngakhale Okinawa imangokhala 0.6% yadziko lonse la Japan. Izi zadzetsa zovuta zambiri kwa anthu aku Okinawa kuyambira kumapeto kwa nkhondo yachiwiri yapadziko lonse. Izi zikuphatikiza phokoso / ngozi zankhondo yankhondo, milandu yomvetsa chisoni yochitidwa ndi mamembala aku US, komanso kuipitsa chilengedwe ndi zinthu zapoizoni monga PFAS.
Popeza kutukuka kwaposachedwa kwa China, magulu ankhondo aku US omwe akukhala ku Okinawa ayamba kusatetezeka. Ndikudziwa kuti a US Marines akhazikitsa mfundo zatsopano zogwirira ntchito monga Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations (EABO) ndipo akusintha kuti atumize mphamvu zina zobalalika, zazing'ono ku Indo-Pacific. Ndi chiyembekezo chokhazikitsa mgwirizano pakati pa Japan ndi US, ndikufuna ndikupemphe thandizo lanu kuti muchepetse gulu lankhondo ku Okinawa popanga zisankho zina panjira za Indo-Pacific.
Pakadali pano, ntchito yomanga ya Futenma Replacement Facility (FRF) ku Okinawa ikutsutsidwa mwamphamvu ndi anthu. Kazembe wakale Takeshi Onaga ndi ine tidapambana zisankho zaubwanamkubwa pokwaniritsa lonjezo lotsutsa malingalirowa. Pa referendum yapadera pa projekiti ya FRF, anthu 434,273, owerengera ochulukirapo (71.7%), adavota motsutsana ndi ntchitoyi.
Dongosolo la zomangamanga limafuna ntchito yayikulu yobwezeretsa malo, koma nyanja yomwe ntchitoyi idakonzedweratu imadziwika padziko lonse lapansi chifukwa cha mitundu yambiri yazachilengedwe ndipo ndi kwawo kwa nyama zam'madzi zowopsa monga ma dugong. Popeza kuti nyanja yomwe ikubwezeretsedwako ndiyofewa ngati mayonesi, ntchitoyi ikufunika kukonza maziko poyendetsa milu 71,000 munyanja. Boma la Japan, lomwe limayang'anira ntchitoyi, pakadali pano likuganiza kuti ntchito yomangayi itenga zaka 12 zina ndi ndalama pafupifupi $ 9.3 biliyoni. Akatswiri a sayansi ya zakuthambo amachenjezanso za kuopsa kwa kuchepa kwa nthaka kosagwirizana chifukwa pafupifupi 70% ya ntchito yokonzanso zinthu izichitidwa mdera lomwe madzi ake ndi ozama kwambiri, kunyanjaku sikokwanira, ndipo maziko ofewa amagawidwa mwachisawawa. Zochitika za zivomerezi m'derali zalankhulidwanso ndi akatswiri, omwe awonetsa kuti akuda nkhawa ndi kupezeka kwa mizere yolakwika ya zivomerezi.
Mavutowa atha kusokoneza ntchito zamtsogolo za Marines ku FRF ngakhale ntchitoyi ikadzatha zaka zoposa 10 kuchokera pano. Chivomerezi champhamvu chikachitika m'derali, chitha kubweretsa zoopsa zazikulu kwa ogwira ntchito ku US, zida ndi zida za Marines, komanso chidwi chadziko lonse la US. Ndili ndi malingaliro awa, ndikufuna ndikupemphani kuti muyambe kuwunikanso bwino ntchitoyi.
Tikukuthokozani chifukwa chotisamalira pankhaniyi ndipo tikuyembekezera kugwira ntchito limodzi.
modzipereka,
Denny Tamaki Kazembe wa Chigawo cha Okinawa, Japan
