Japan floods: Victim of two quakes attempts another fresh start with wife’s memory


Wajima (Japan) (AFP) – Two huge earthquakes 17 years apart robbed Shoichi Miyakoshi first of his wife, and then his home. Now, his temporary dwelling flooded after heavy rains deluged Japan’s Noto Peninsula, he must start afresh again. “It’s now September and will soon be October, then the winter will be right here,” Miyakoshi told AFP. “I have to start over, through another cold winter”.
