As the 2nd anniversary of the 3-part catastrophic disaster in Japan occurs, here are a couple of articles that document difficulties during the recovery process:

• AP, March 10
• Boomberg.com, March 10
• Japan Times, March 11
• The HSDL collection provides 5 more citations; March 12

lt should be noted that the recovery process in Japan is a huge, unprecedented effort and the Japanese should be given credit for all they have achieved thus far.  As we know, it is easier to criticize than to be positive.

The recovery effort probably will be a major milestone in disaster recovery history and be studied for years to come.
