It has been a major social controversy for over 20 years. The 4th Nuclear Power Plant in Gong-Liao Township, Taipei county, sited right next to the beautiful Fu-Long beach , has long been a nightmare to people living in Gong-Liao, as well as everyone who is concerned about the safety and unjustness of nuclear power in Taiwan.
Under the pressure of government policy , Tai-Power Company claimed publicly to commercially run the NPP4 by the end of this year. However, from the beginning of this year, there have been several cases of accident revealing serious safety issue in the power plant. There’s no reason that people in Gong-Liao should take the risk of such underlying danger!
Last year, the NUO-NU-KE campaign team launched a series of activities such as rock concert and outdoor film screening to bring about public attention .This year , with the participation of RULES and several creative artists and activists, we aim at different forms of protest to advocate anti-nuclear position, calling for nuclear-free alternatives.
We invite everyone who is concerned about environment issue to gather together , stand by the local people, shout our appeal out loud .No more nuclear-related industry! Stop filling nuclear fuel rods!!
Join Us NOW!! What is Nuo-Nu-Ke? It is actually 「No Nuke」 being directly pronounced in Mandarin Chinese tone. Literally, it also refers to a group of people who are very determined to say no to nuclear power. Why human chain?
On 4th April,2010, over 100,000 activists gathered in Northern Germany to build a human chain stretching 120KM to protest against the nuclear power program in Germany . It was the biggest anti-nuclear protest in Germany since the 1980’s, with participants from every aspects of the society.
We hope to bring about people’s attention through this kind of mobilization. Let’s go hand-in-hand and make non-nuclear future come true!!
