Foreign Ministry asks Thais in Japan to register
BANGKOK, March 19 (TNA) - The Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs has asked Thai people in Japan to register with the Thai Embassy in Tokyo to facilitate official updates on their status.
Thai Foreign Ministry Spokesman Thani Thongphakdi said that the whereabouts and safety of about 800-1,000 Thai nationals in Japan had been confirmed; while others might have already returned to Thailand without notifying the Thai Embassy in Tokyo or the Thai Consulate of their trips; so, all Thai people in Japan, including those who have breached their immigration deadlines, should register with the Thai Embassy or the Thai Consulate for the sake of their status updates.
Thani, who is also Director-General of the Department of Information, acknowledged that the level of radioactive leakage from a damaged nuclear power plant in Japan was declining a little and the Japanese government had confirmed public safety beyond a 30-kilometre-radius of the troubled power plant.
Meanwhile, Thailand's Food and Drug Administration (FDA) confirmed that it has not found any radioactive contamination in food products imported from Japan, from March 15 onwards; while the Thai Ministry of Public Health is sending a team of two psychiatrists, two psychiatric nurses and a psychologist to Japan to assist disaster victims, most of whom are reportedly suffering from tension and insomnia.
