Japanese Virtue Helps its Recovery

Don't give others trouble. It's a matter of course for us, Japanese people, who have learned it from their parents and teachers. It's so natural that we don't be conscious about it unless it is mentioned.
From global point of view, however, such a common sense seems to have a value we have never expected.
As a matter of course refugees of Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami don't give troubles to each other. Far from it, they help each other in spite of various difficulties each has.
Their attitude,respected and praised by overseas media, will be one of the main engines which gives a power to their recovery. They will reconstruct their cities and industries as soon as possible not only because they want to go back to their daily life but also because they don't want to give troubles to helpers from the other districts.
