2016年ネパール通信4 二つの会議
はじめに
4月25日は「2015年ネパール地震」から１年目の記念日で、地震に関する下記の二つの会議がカトマンズで行われましたので、報告します。
記
会議１）International Workshop on Gorkha Earthquake, Nepal（4月24日～25日）
会議２）Nepal Earthquake one year memorial Build Back Better and Resilience Workshop（4月25日）

写真１ 交通渋滞の旧王宮前の通りは、ジャカランダの並木で紫色に彩られる。
カトマンズの街は大気・水質汚染やゴミ・交通渋滞などの環境問題をかかえていますが、温かくなる4月中旬は紫色の木の花、ジャカランダで彩られます （写真1，２）。ジャカランダの影響でしょうか、街の広告や女性のサリーまでもが、ポカラのカエンジュ＊の赤色に比較すると、カトマンズでは紫色が好まれ るように感じます。ポカラはより熱帯的で、朱に近い赤色のカエンジュが街を彩っているのと対照的です。

Department of Mines and Geologyが主催した会議１）International Workshop on Gorkha Earthquake, Nepal（4月24日～25日）はYak＆Yeti ホテルで開催されました
かつてのラナ王朝を思わすような歴史的建物が会場で、会議の冒頭に、昨年の地震で被害にあわれた方々への１分間の黙と うが行われました（写真４）
写真４ 会議１）の冒頭、地震被害者への１分間の黙祷が行われた。
会議１）の内容とスケジュールをみますと、地球物理的、地質・地形学的な手法で「2015年ネパール地震」の特徴を明らかにする研究成果が多く発表されました。ぼく自身のは発表「Himalayan Earthquake Museum 」＊ は、最後の社会学的な視点からの研究グループの中で、行いました。いかにさまざまな手法で地震の特徴を沖らかににしても、残念がら、地震を防ぐことはでき ないのですから、せめて地震被害を少なくする手立てが現実的に必要であることを、かつてポカラの国際山岳博物館で学芸員をした経験から、「ヒマラヤ地震博 物館」でも若い学生たちにヒマラヤの地震について知ってもらい、被害を軽減する手立てを考えてもらうことが必要であることを発表したところ、できるだけ早 く、カトマンズにヒマラヤ地震博物館を、また雪崩災害にあったランタン地域にヒマラヤ災害情報センターをつくる構想に参加者が興味をくれました。できれ ば、カトマンズのランドマーク・タワーで破壊されたビムセン・タワーを保存し、その隣にヒマラヤ地震博物館を建設する構想にも大方の賛同が得られたので、 この構想の推進に心強さを感じました。

National Reconstruction Authority とJICA共催の会議２）Nepal Earthquakeoneyear memorial Build Back Better and Resilience Workshopは4月25日の午前中にRadissonホテルで行われましたので、会議１）と掛け持ちで参加してきました。この会議２）でも冒頭、地震 被害者への黙祷が行われました（写真５）。
写真６ JICAが行った学校再建事業に関するパネル発表資料
JICAは実にさまざまな地震災害の復興事業を行っており、その一環として友人のハクパ・ギャルブ・シェルパさ んの会社が担当して行った学校施設の復旧事業もパネル展示で紹介されていました（写真６）。
会議２）は、Nepal Reconstruction AuthorityとJapan International Cooperation Agency（JICA)の共催ですので、研究色よりも行政色の強い対策事業の成果の発表が中心でした。ぼく自身はこの会議では発表はしませんでしたが、 以下の２つの点を指摘し、コメントしました。
まず第１は、JICAは実に広範囲にわたる対策事業を行っているのですが、地上部の建物のデザイン（設計）な どに凝り過ぎている感じがしましたので、見えない地下の軟弱地盤の性格がある粘土や砂からなるカトマンズ湖底堆積物の上に「砂上の楼閣」を作ってはならな いことを、昨年の５月のJICAの会議＊で指摘した同様な問題を再びコメントしました。
また、もうひとつの第２の点は、関西国際大学の村田昌彦教授が行った報告＊の中で、神戸では1995年地震の後、「Disaster Reduction and Human Renovation Institution」の博物館を作った結果、年間50万人の見学者が訪れ、学校教育の場としても役立っているという報告がありましたので、前述の会議 １）でのぼく自身が発表しました「Himalayan Earthquake Museum 」とも深く関連しますので、神戸と同様な性格をも つヒマラヤ地震博物館の重要性をコメントしました。

写真７ スモッグの中を赤い夕陽が沈む（ターメル入口の交差点にて）。
地震に関する二つの会議が終了した4月25日の夕方も、カトマンズは濃いスモッグに覆われ、赤い夕陽が沈んでゆきました（写真７）が、カトマンズ郊外 の大学の戻ってみた太陽もまたスモッグの中から赤い朝日となって現れてくるのでした（写真８）。今春は昨春と違って、大気が乾燥・高温状態で汚染物質が溜 まり、３千メートル以下の下界はひどいスモッグにすっぽりと覆われ、神々座を拝むことができないのが残念です。
今後の予定としては、4月29日と30日にカトマンズで行われるマナスル峰の日本隊登頂60周年記念行事に参加した後に、国際山岳博物館で展示更新を 行うためポカラに行きます。このブログの冒頭でふれました朱色のカエンジュのポカラの街並みのかなたに、はたして、マチャプチャリを中心にしたアンナプル ナ連峰の神々の座を見ることができますことを期待しているところです。さらに幸運ならば、その東にマナスルを、また西にはダウラギリの８千メートル両峰を も眺めることができたら、と思っているところです。それでは、皆さま方も、ご自愛ください。ナマステ！
（4月27日夜、カトマンズ大学にて記す）
