My heart goes out to the entire Japanese community, especially to the families of those who have lost their lives in the face of this disaster. In the wake of this tragedy, my government and people send out a special prayer to your government for its tireless effort in dealing with this unforeseen situation. I have faith that Japan will recover quickly from this tragic event and that life in your country will be swiftly restored.
