Record levels of radiation have been recorded at the damaged Fukushima Daiichi plant reactor, just months after the nuclear accident resulting from the earthquake and tsunami in March.
The Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) reported that Geiger counters - a hand-held device used to measure radiation - registered their highest possible reading at the site on Monday.
Al Jazeera speaks to Richard Tanter, a senior research associate at the Nautilus Institute about the radiation and its effect on the Japanese economy and government.
