We hope the Government will soon decide to halted construction NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS

Taipei (Reuters)-Taiwan's main opposition party, Tuesday, calling for the construction of nuclear power plants (NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS)--long overdue--was discontinued along with the associated safety factor extends unjukrasa.

Build a nuclear installation in the fourth debate, which was never completed for 14 years, heating up along with the addition of the Taiwan Parliament's plan to review the budget reached 40 billion Taiwan dollars (Rp13,57 trillion) for the project.

"We hope the Government will soon decide to halted construction of the NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS rather than approve the supplementary budget," said Democratic Progressive Party Chairman Su Tseng-chang,.

Related concerns Taiwan's Atomic installations peaked after the earthquake had a magnitude of 9 on the Richter scale which struck Japan accompanied by tsunamis on March 11, 2011, thus damaging the nuclear installation in Fukushima.

Based on information Organizer, as many as 50 thousand people from 100 civilian group is scheduled to hold a protest in Taiwan on March 9, the upcoming to urge the Government to learn from the disaster that happened in Japan.

Taiwan's Government previously stated is unlikely to shut down three NUCLEAR PLANTS them or stop the construction of the fourth, as the island is heavily dependent on energy imports.

The construction of the fourth NUCLEAR POWER PLANT began in 1999 and is scheduled to be completed in 2004. But the political debate resulted in the controversial project was delayed so long.

Taiwan's three NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS are owned now-meet about 20 percent of electricity needs of the island. The Government of Taiwan claimed that the installation of anti-seismic design has been applied to the whole of the installation after the disaster that happened in Japan.

As with Japan, the earthquake-prone Taiwan also belongs to because the island lies between two tectonic plates.

Thanks to the folks at MTV, the Garden State is now recognized for its Italian-American-centric beaches, bars, gyms, tanning salons and laundromats. And for some reason, New Jerseyans aren't thrilled about it.

But Gov. Chris Christie is putting his foot down, blocking the MTV show Jersey Shore from receiving a $420,000 tax break. Though Christie suspended the film tax credit program in 2010 on behalf of budget cuts, the show's first season was filmed in 2009, qualifying it for funding.

"I have no interest in policing the content of such projects," Christie said. The governor, who is no fan of the show, noted that it is his role to make sure New Jersey taxpayers are not stuck paying "for a project which does nothing more than perpetuate misconceptions about the state and its citizens." Among those misconceptions is the belief that the cast is actually from Jersey; in reality, the vast majority of the self-proclaimed "guidettes" and "juiceheads" are from New York.

Lawmakers have criticized the TV show's impending tax break since it was first revealed by the statehouse bureau of The Star-Ledger of Newark and The Record newspapers earlier this month. MTV spoksewoman Noelle Llewelleyn told the AP she wouldn't comment on the tax issue but emphasized, "Jersey Shore itself will not be affected." NewsFeed gathers this is supposed to be a good thing.

For the uninitiated, the show's initial season focused on a group of young Italian-Americans living in Seaside Heights, a shore community along the boardwalk, and showcased their hard-partying lifestyle. Subsequent seasons have followed the cast to Miami and Italy, though the show's state-damning name has remained the same. Though some state officials denounce the show for tarnishing New Jersey's image, NewsFeed notes you can't discount the show for its cultural contributions: fist-pumping and smushing.
