A Japanese member of Parliament proposed the move Friday in Tokyo to Fukushima to provide dynamism and confidence of the region devastated by an earthquake on March 11, a tsunami and a nuclear accident.
Yasuhisa Shiozaki, a former Japanese deputy between 2006 and 2007, admitted that this idea might seem far-fetched, but considered that Japan should consider it an opportunity for decentralization.
"I propose moving Japanese Fukushima Assembly to show the world that give back to the nuclear problem, " said opposition MP, the Liberal Democrat party, the Stimson Center, a think-tank in Washington.
For decades, Japan, where most activities are concentrated in Tokyo, trying to decentralize in order to stimulate other regions and to avoid a disaster if the capital would be affected by an earthquake.
Industrial production and consumption in Japan registered a record decline in March after an earthquake followed by tsunami that devastated the north-eastern archipelago, have disrupted economic activity and anxious population.
The earthquake and tsunami have resulted in nearly 26,000 dead and missing, according to the latest official assessment.
