The Soviets had one accident: Chernobyl. The USA had one: Three Mile Island. The Japanese had one: Fukushima.
To the best of my knowledge China has had none and South Korea have had none and the Russians (non-Soviets) have had none.

- bayesian_horse 3y agoThe Chinese ramp up in nuclear power is fairly decent. Give them time. Unfortunately I don't think they will have more luck in terms of safety, rather the opposite... The Fukushima incident was a result of regulations being too weak or ignored and the government not keeping good enough tabs on the operator. I really don't think the Chinese government does a better job. They suck at regulating and enforcing plenty of things they care about.
