Why did the Fukushima nuclear accident occur?

Aso prime minister of the Liberal-Democratic Party summed up "the nuclear power plant safety measures budget" based on warning of IAEA in 2008.

However, after the change of power to the Democratic Party, Edano present Chief Cabinet Secretary abolished the budget in 2010.

In addition, Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Kaieda of Democratic Party Cabinet had approved the extension use of the Fukushima nuclear power plant for ten years in February 2011.

Thus, the nuclear accident in Fukushima is an act of the Democratic Party political power that has been compelling the use of dangerous wastes.
