A fisherman who suffered radiation sickness after a 1954 U.S. hydrogen bomb test in the Pacific Ocean is campaigning for a monument to the danger of fallout from nuclear tests.
Matashichi Oishi wants the 2-ton stone, which has already been carved, to be placed on the site of the Tsukiji fish market for the benefit of future generations.
The market is currently set to move to a new location, and no decision has been taken yet on what to do with the site in central Tokyo that for decades was the flagship site for seafood sales in Japan.
