Numerous vehicles were submerged at Shizuoka Airport due to heavy rains and flooding. The owners of the affected vehicles are now seeking compensation for their losses. However, the opinion on how to handle these compensation claims is divided, creating a significant societal issue.

In Japan, compensation for damage caused to private property due to natural disasters is a subject of serious debate among its citizens, especially in areas prone to natural disasters. People care greatly about whether their insurance covers such damage or whether the government will step in to offer assistance. Japanese societal and legal values place high importance on fair compensation and proper redress of grievances.

In the US or EU, insurance coverage, particularly regarding natural disasters, also plays a significant role in post-disaster discussion. There is a constant debate over governmental intervention and assistance, particularly following significant catastrophes. However, societal emphasis tends to fall slightly heavier on individual responsibility and insurance preparedness, differing from the more community-focused perspective in Japan.
