| 1243295 | 2011-11-13 03:52:00 | What on earth did they do with all the debris? Do they have a detritus-eating godzilla hidden away somewhere? :0 | Catweazle (2535) | ||
| 1243296 | 2011-11-13 04:03:00 | They also have a tonne of man + machine power. Its also a bit easier, bulldoze whats left and scrap the rubbish. ChCh is much different since a lot of structural damage had to be assessed then a course of action decided. With Japan it was most likely A: Fine B: A bit wet D: Gone |

| 1243297 | 2011-11-13 04:34:00 | Added to which Japan did not sit down and read all B.M.'s posts and I suspect those salvaging the Rena and those looking after ChCh did not either. | Snorkbox (15764) | ||
| 1243298 | 2011-11-13 05:03:00 | Perhaps if they had done so, they would have got a quicker result. You must remember BM leaned on a council shovel for a year ot two, so he knows what he is on about. |

| 1243300 | 2011-11-13 18:41:00 | Yeah right. Japan's earthquake and Tsunami killed about 20,000 people and displaced about 400,000. Christchurch’s Earthquake killed 182 and their total population is less than those displaced in Japan. If it had been the other way around we’d still be burying our dead and OSH would still be searching their manual looking for a safe way to remove ships from roof tops. :rolleyes: And, Maritime NZ would have held lengthy meetings with a dozen “On Scene Commanders” and decided the ships were no longer in a designated waterway, so they could pass the buck. I'm afraid in NZ Procrastinators and Hand Wringers rule and that needs to change. ;) |

| 1243301 | 2011-11-15 06:13:00 | NZ couldn't repair a ripped paper bag without endless meetings, appointments of useless bodies and bloated amounts spent on advisers and other con artists and years of farting around discussing it. | pctek (84) | ||
