Apologizing on hands and knees?

[edit]

It seems odd that this article makes no mention of the thing Shimizu is most famous for. On an "apology tour" to representatives of the areas most severely affected by the Fukushima disaster, one furious resident told him to get down on his hands and knees and apologize. Shimizu did so. "Dogeza" (土下座) is the most extremely form of apologizing, short of suicide, in Japan. Social media lit up in the aftermath, with supporters of nuclear energy saying the resident had gone too far, that TEPCO could not possibly have prepared for such an earthquake and tsunami, and critics of TEPCO saying it was obvious that such an apology was warranted (or that it was an empty gesture and that Shimizu and other TEPCO officers should be held criminally liable for the accident). 126.61.59.72 (talk) 01:57, 8 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If you can provide some reliable sources, feel free to add a mention of the incident to the article. --DAJF (talk) 02:10, 8 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
