For the first time in history, Emperor Akihito has addressed the Japanese nation via a television broadcast, in wake of the natural disasters that have devastated the country.
He said: "People are being forced to evacuate in such severe conditions of bitter cold, with shortages of water and fuel... I cannot help praying that rescue work is done swiftly and people's lives get better, even a little."
He expressed concern of the unpredictable situation at the Fukushima No.1 nuclear power plant. ""I sincerely hope that we can keep the situation from getting worse."
