Reflecting on his coverage of Japan's historic three-pronged disaster, VOA Asia Correspondent Steve Herman says he was surprised to see so little progress in the areas worst hit by last month's 9.0 magnitude earthquake and tsunami.

Steve was one of two American reporters to first visit the grounds of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, where the combined impact of the earthquake and tsunami caused a nuclear crisis and the evacuation of tens of thousands of residents.
