Japan – disaster update March 14th 14:00
A large earthquake followed by a tsunami hit eastern Japan on March 11th.
There has been enormous loss-of-life and damage to infrastructure.
We are deeply sorry for all those directly and indirectly affected but glad to report that all OCS staff and their families in Japan are safe.
OCS facilities have not sustained serious damage but service is affected by the need to give priority to the relief effort and by power and fuel shortages.
Until further notice, delivery service to the following areas is suspended:
Akita, Aomori, Fukushima, Hokkaido, Iwate, Miyagi and Yamagata
Service to the rest of Japan is available but subject to delay.
Flights are operating from London to Tokyo and courier material is being despatched daily.
