No one knows the name of the sender except that the gold bars come by post and packed in paper from a north western city of Nagano as reported in bbc.com of dated 16th of February 2013.
There is no message but the recipients are overjoyed and take it as a gift from God to help rebuild their broken homes and devastated lives.
The gold bars began to arrive in Ishinomaki, in Miyagi prefecture, about 10 days ago and, so far, two packages have been received - each of them contain 2-Kg of gold bars valued at approximately $250,000.
The money would be used to rebuild the fish market of Ishinomaki which is, at present, operating out of tents.
It may be recalled that on 11th of March 2011, a quake of magnitude 9.0 triggered a Tsunami in Japan and in that disaster, nearly 19,000 persons died while the nuclear reactor in Fukushima was damaged extensively.
Ishinomaki lies 350-Km north-east of Tokyo and the casualty in this region was 3,000 with more than 40,000 buildings completely destroyed.
