Very difficult situation. For those who are young and physically able, the best solution could be to leave and go somewhere else to start up a new life. However for those who are not young or retired, it is very very tough. Good luck to them all.

Perhaps they could study? I know not the greatest solution but studying for something to help them find a new job might help.

Hopefully it will be an early spring in Tohoku and those suffering a year after the 3/11 disasters can really start to put the pieces of their lives back together this year.
