The irritating thing is, we've had the tech to build safer fission reactors for years now that cannot have any of the problems Fukushima is having now, such as those that use Thorium fuel, which can't even have a meltdown. As far as I know only India has proposals to build a Thorium reactor.
I have no idea why it's no on the cards anywhere else. Many countries stopped building any fission reactors at all due to the concerns of the old designs. I suspect the rest just want the nuclear by-products of the old designs for their weapons.
