This is inspiring news, as in Japan we have had little wonderful news. Most of the F&B world is here from Yokohama, Tokyo and north is at a stand-still. Many people working in F&B have left the country for a while. Other F&B people are up north with Shelterbox, animal rescue and other NGOs. Those F&B people still in the Tokyo metro area are collecting items to be sent to the evacuees, but we need more support from those in F&B from abroad, and really much appreciate it when it happens.
