Japan's PM Gives Up His Salary

Japan's Prime Minister Naoto Kan has publicly said that he will give up his salary until the nuclear crisis in the country is over.

Kan said he would give up his prime minister salary which is 1,636,000 yen a month ($20,200 a month), but he would still receive his lawmaker's salary.

The prime minister's announcement comes the same day that about 100 residents, who had been evacuated from an area close to Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, were allowed to return home Tuesday for a short visit to gather belongings.

After two hours at their homes, residents were taken to a base to undergo examinations for radioactive substances.

The cooling systems at Fukushima Daiichi, about 240 kilometres north of Tokyo, were knocked out by the devastating tsunami that struck Japan's Pacific coast after a massive earthquake March 11.

The disaster triggered the worst nuclear accident since Chernobyl.

The disaster has led to mandatory evacuations of about 78,000 people living within 20 kilometres of the plant.

Would our own politicians put their money where their mouths are in the same way as PM Kan?
