Umbhalo wesikhalazo ulandelayo:
Ku: Mongameli wase-US uJoe Biden
Thina, abo batyikitye apha ngezantsi, sinqwenela ukudlulisa inkxaso yethu eyomeleleyo kwiRhuluneli yaseOkinawa, uDenny Tamaki, kunye nabemi bomthonyama baseOkinawa, kunye nesicelo sabo sokupheliswa kolwakhiwo lwe-airbase yomkhosi wase-US eHenoko.
NgoJanuwari 13th 2021, iRhuluneli uTamaki wathumela ileta eya kuMongameli Biden (ebiyelweyo) echaza izizathu zokuba iprojekthi yokwakha i-airbase eHenoko kufuneka ichithwe, kubandakanya:
Inkcaso eyoyikisayo ngabantu Bomthonyama baseOkinawan. Kwireferendamu yesithili, i-71.7% ivote ngokuchasene neprojekthi. Kubekho uqhankqalazo oluqhubekayo kwanolwaphulo-mthetho olwenziwe luluntu.
Ukungabinakwenzeka kobunjineli. Isicwangciso sokwakha sifuna umsebenzi omkhulu wokubuyiselwa komhlaba, kodwa ulwandle oluza kuphinda lubuyiswe luthambile njengemayonnaise kwaye lubangela iingxaki ezinkulu zobunjineli ezibangele ukuba umhla wokugqitywa utyhale ukusuka ku-2014 ukuya ku-2030 kunye neendleko ukusuka kwi-3.3 yezigidigidi ukuya kwi-8.7 yezigidigidi zeedola. Ezinye iinjineli azikholelwa ukuba kuyenzeka nokuba kwakhiwe. Nkqu noMark Cancian weZiko lobuChule kunye noPhando lwaMazwe ngaMazwe (CSIS) ugqibile kwingxelo eqhutywa yinyani ukuba akunakulindeleka ukuba iprojekthi iphinde igqitywe. [1] Ngapha koko, isiza sisengozini kwiinyikima. Kukho impazamo esebenzayo kwisiza. [2]
Umonakalo ongenakulungiswa wendalo esingqongileyo. Indawo yolwandle ebuyiswayo yahlukile kwindalo eyahlukeneyo kwaye likhaya lezilwanyana zaselwandle ezisengozini njengezidugong.
I-United States igcina izibonelelo zomkhosi eziyi-119 eJapan. I-Okinawa, eyenza i-0.6% kuphela yomhlaba wonke waseJapan ubambe i-70% yala maziko, egubungela i-20% yesi siqithi sincinci. Kumashumi eminyaka, abantu base-Okinawa babandezelekile ngenxa yemikhosi. Umkhosi wase-US sele ubangele umonakalo omkhulu kwiingozi zeenqwelomoya, ulwaphulo-mthetho ngamalungu enkonzo yase-US kunye nongcoliseko olukhulu lwendalo zizinto ezinetyhefu ezinjengePFAS. Okona kuncinci i-US inokukwenza kukuyeka ukwakha esinye isiseko kwesi siqithi singqingiweyo.

Indawo ebiyelweyo: Irhuluneli yase-Okinawa Prefecture, eJapan, u-Denny Tamaki, ileta eya kuMongameli-onyuliweyo u-Biden kunye no-Sekela Mongameli-u-Harris, ngomhla we-13 kuJanuwari 2021:
Mongameli othandekayo-u-Biden kunye no-Sekela Mongameli-u-Harris,
Egameni labantu abazizigidi eziyi-1.45 base-Okinawa, eJapan, ndingathanda ukuvuyisana nawe kunyulo lwakho lokuba nguMongameli kunye ne-Sekela Mongameli wase-United States. Siyawaxabisa amagalelo amakhulu e-United States kukhuseleko lwesizwe lwaseJapan kunye noxolo nozinzo kwi-Mpuma ye-Asiya.
Abantu abaninzi eUnited States banobudlelwane bobuqu kunye no-Okinawa. Umzekelo, uMbutho wase-Okinawa waseMelika kwi-State of California unawona malungu makhulu kwilizwekazi laseMelika, kwaye ufikelele ngaphezulu kwamalungu e-1,000. Ngokukwanjalo, malunga nabantu abangama-50,000 XNUMX kuRhulumente waseHawaii baneOkinawan yookhokho ngokufudukela kwelinye ilizwe. Abantu baseOkinawa bakhuthaze inkcubeko yayo eyahlukileyo ngokubandakanya inkcubeko yaseMelika emva kweMfazwe yesibini (II) yeHlabathi. Oku kufanekisela ubudlelwane obuqinileyo, obusekwe kwimbali phakathi kwe-United States ne-Okinawa, kwaye ndijonge phambili ekwakheni ubudlelwane obusondeleyo noLawulo lwakho.
Ndiyaqonda ukuba ubudlelwane beJapan ne-US, kubandakanya umanyano lokhuseleko lwamazwe amabini, banegalelo elikhulu kukhuseleko lwesizwe laseJapan kunye noxolo nozinzo kwi-Mpuma ye-Asiya. Okwangoku, u-Okinawa udlale indima enkulu ngokungathethekiyo ekugcineni umanyano. Ngaphezulu kweepesenti ezingama-70 zamaziko asemkhosini asetyenziswa kuphela yimikhosi yase-US eJapan (kubandakanya iKadena Air Base) egxile e-Okinawa, nangona i-Okinawa inika kuphela iipesenti ezi-0.6 zommandla wonke waseJapan. Oku kukhokelele kubunzima obuninzi kubantu base-Okinawa ukusukela ukuphela kweMfazwe yesibini (II) yeHlabathi. Oku kubandakanya ingxolo yomkhosi wenqwelomoya / iingozi, ulwaphulo-mthetho olubi olwenziwe ngamalungu enkonzo yase-US, kunye nongcoliseko lokusingqongileyo ngezinto ezinetyhefu ezinjengePFAS.
Ngenxa yokunyuka komkhosi wase-China kutshanje, iziseko zomkhosi wase-US ezijolise e-Okinawa ziye zasesichengeni. Ndiyazi ukuba amajoni aseMelika aseMelika azise iikhonsepthi ezintsha zokusebenza ezinje nge-Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations (EABO) kwaye batshintshela ekuthumeleni amandla asasazekayo, amandla amancinci kwi-Indo-Pacific. Ngethemba lokugcina umanyano lweJapan-US luzinzile, ndingathanda ukucela inkxaso yakho ukunciphisa umkhondo wezomkhosi e-Okinawa xa usenza ezinye izigqibo malunga nemigaqo-nkqubo ye-Indo-Pacific.
Okwangoku, iprojekthi yolwakhiwo lweFutenma Replacement Facility (FRF) e-Okinawa ijongene nenkcaso yoluntu. Owayesakuba yiRhuluneli uTakeshi Onaga kwaye siphumelele unyulo loburhulumente ngokubamba isithembiso sokuchasa esi sicwangciso. Kwireferendamu yesithili kwiprojekthi ye-FRF, abantu abangama-434,273, bebala uninzi lwabavoti (iipesenti ezingama-71.7), bavota ngokuchasene neprojekthi.
Isicwangciso sokwakha sidinga umsebenzi omkhulu wokubuyisela umhlaba, kodwa ulwandle apho umsebenzi ucetywayo waziwa kwilizwe jikelele ngobuninzi bezinto ezohlukeneyo kwaye likhaya lezilwanyana zaselwandle ezisengozini njengama-dugongs. Kuba ulwandle oluza kuphinda lubuyiswe luthambile njengemayonnaise, iprojekthi ifuna ukuphuculwa kwesiseko ngokuqhuba iimfumba ezingama-71,000 kulwandle. Urhulumente wase-Japan, owongamele le projekthi, ngoku uqikelela ukuba ulwakhiwo luza kuthatha ubuncinci eminye iminyaka eli-12 ngendleko iyonke eyi- $ 9.3 yezigidigidi. Izazi ngokuma komhlaba zikwalumkisa ngomngcipheko wokungafumaneki kokulingana komhlaba ngenxa yokuba malunga neepesenti ezingama-70 zomsebenzi wokulungisa ziya kuqhutywa kwindawo apho amanzi anzulu kakhulu, ulwandle alulingani kakhulu, kwaye isiseko esithambileyo sihanjiswa ngokungacwangciswanga. Imisebenzi yenyikima kulo mmandla ikhe yaqwalaselwa ziingcali, ezivakalise inkxalabo ngobukho bemigca yenyikima esebenzayo.
Obu bunzima bunokuba nefuthe elibi kwimisebenzi ezayo yoLwandle kwi-FRF nasemva kokuba iprojekthi igqityiwe ngaphezulu kweminyaka eli-10 ukusukela ngoku. Ukuba inyikima eyomeleleyo yenzeka kule ndawo, inokubangela umngcipheko omkhulu kumalungu enkonzo yase-US, izixhobo kunye nezixhobo zaseMarines, kunye nomdla welizwe lonke lase-US. Ngale micimbi engqondweni, ndingathanda ukucela ukuphinda kujongwe kwakhona ngeprojekthi nguLawulo lwakho.
Siyabulela ngenqaku lakho kulo mbandela kwaye sijonge phambili ekusebenzeni kunye.
Ozithobileyo,
UDenny Tamaki Urhuluneli weSithili saseOkinawa, eJapan
