Banking on the Korean Wave, unemployed Korean prostitutes and even
Korean college girls on vacation are heading to
Taiwan, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia to ply their skills in the world’s
oldest profession. A Taiwanese paper
reported Monday that a 26-year-old Korean college girl by the name of
Park was busted in a Taipei hotel for engaging
in paid sex with a Taiwanese man (for 4,000 Taiwanese dollars, or about
W130,000). According to the paper, the girl
entered Taiwan on Dec. 28 on a tourist visa, and immediately started
“work” through a local broker. Ms. Park will soon
be deported back to Korea.
The Taiwanese paper also reported that local “brokers,” riding the
Korean Wave that has swept over the
country/renegade Chinese province, have recently focused on furnishing
Korean girls. In particular, it quoted
Taiwanese cops as saying that in the case of Korean college girls using
their precious vacation time to earn a little
cash, costumers needed to make reservations since the girls were only
on the island for a short period of time.
And it’s not just foreign brokers doing the pimping. Brokers in
Korea are also finding girls jobs in China and Southeast
Asia. Last year, cops busted a gang in Ulsan and Busan for sending
about 100 college girls to Hong Kong, Taiwan and
other “Korean Wave” locales. Each girl paid a commission between
W200,000 and W800,000 and a fixed portion of
their proceeds.
One foreign affairs cop said, “With the special law on prostitution
going into effect in Korea, prostitution brokers are
looking overseas. With Korean girls growing in popularity due to the
Korean Wave, more and more prostitutes are
heading to not only Japan, but also China and Southeast Asia.” He
added, “Because the girls can earn twice as much
money if they look like a Korean Wave star, we are hearing information
that girls are getting plastic surgery before
they go.”

South Korean currency seized in Kashmir
Police
said the foreign currency, along with Rs.75,000 of Indian money, was
found when Ejaz Ahmad's truck was searched on the Jammu-Srinagar
highway during a random check, about 125 km from here.
Police said initial investigation showed the money was meant for some
militants at Pattan in north Kashmir. http://www.eians.net/2005/01/11/11south.html
US firms get tough on IP piracy
Chinese companies are responsible for 70 percent of intellectual
property theft,
and they are the target for new moves combatting the flood of fakes
American businesses, losing a massive US$250 billion a year to
copyright piracy,
are taking the fight against counterfeit goods in Asia to the sources
of production,
with China at the frontline of the onslaught.
The problem, he said, had become so serious that
in
China one may not be able to differentiate between a car produced by
the world's biggest automaker General Motors and a fake.
"And that is that some folks in China were building cars for General
Motors who then found out that four towns away,
they were building the very same car with the same brochures, and who
could tell the difference?"
This
year, while expanding lobbying and education in China and Brazil, the
chamber will launch education and enforcement programs in South Korea,
India and Russia.
In South Korea, Washington is seriously
concerned that modern copyright protection is lacking in important
areas, the report said.
Key among these is Seoul's failure to adequately update laws to protect
sound recordings against digital piracy.
Intellectual property theft costs 750,000 American jobs a year,
according to the chamber. http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/worldbiz/archives/2005/01/10/2003218841 http://www.reuters.com/financeNewsArticle.jhtml?type=businessNews&storyID=7274372 http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=10000080&sid=a8uWgUsTXURQ&refer=asia http://msnbc.msn.com/id/6805603/

Japan’s Panasonic Foundation Leading Korean History Distortions
The Panasonic Foundation, owned by Japan’s Matsushita Electric
Industrial Co., Ltd, is leading distortions of Korean history
The foundation, along with the U.S. Department of Education, is giving
mass support to the “Asia for Educators” website
established within the homepage of Columbia University.
The
site supports and publicizes certain distortions of Korean history,
such as justifications of Japan’s colonial rule of Korea,
to teachers and educations teaching students around the world.
The
site explains, “This 35-year period [of Japanese colonial rule] was the
time when many feature of modernity appeared in Korea,
including rapid urban growth, commerce, industry, and forms of modern
mass culture such as radio and cinema...
By
the time of the Japanese surrender in August 1945, Korea was the
second-most industrialized nation in Asia after Japan itself.”
unlike most European colonizers, who used their colonizes to extract
natural resources and agricultural products,
Japan
encouraged true economic development and industrialization in Korea
without any evil intention, justifying Japan’s imperial rule over
Korea.
Byungki Koo became the second federal law enforcer charged

AIR-MARSHAL HELD IN SEX-SLAVE CASE Brooklyn, New York January 12, 2005
A
U.S. air marshal was grounded by the feds yesterday for obstructing an
investigation into a Korean couple suspected of smuggling young women
into the country to force them into prostitution.
★Byung Ki Koo,
33, was held without bail at an arraignment in Brooklyn federal court
yesterday after he turned himself in to the FBI to face obstruction
charges
★that carry a maximum sentence of life in prison.
Koo
is accused of trying to protect accused human traffickers Wun Kang and
his wife Kyongja Kang by joining a plot to put one of their victims
onto a flight to South Korea
after she told authorities she would blow the whistle on the smuggling
scheme.
The
Kangs are accused of helping South Korean women come to the United
States for a $10,000 fee, promising they could work off their debt by
hostessing at the couple's Flushing, Queens bar.
The women ? who
are cooperating with federal investigators ? were promised they would
not be required to have sex, according to court papers.
But as soon as they were in the U.S., Wun Kang allegedly suggested they
could earn more money by sleeping with customers.
After
they repeatedly refused to prostitute themselves, Kang allegedly
threatened to kill them and made plans to sell them to a brothel in
Chinatown http://www.nypost.com/news/worldnews/38051.htm

Former U.S. Envoy Warns Seoul Against Supporting Pyongyang
Former
Bush administration special envoy to North Korea Charles Pritchard said
Thursday South Korea must not give Washington the impression that it
supports Kim Jong-il's regime.
Pritchard said the Bush administration could scupper South Korean plans
that appear to be in Pyongyang's interest,
such
as the construction of power grids and railway lines in connection with
the Kaesong project, or the building of ports and roads.
He also
said that while most people expected the two Koreas to reunify if the
North collapsed, it was more likely North Korea would be absorbed by
China.
Pritchard said that since North Korea already depends on
China for much of its fuel and life necessities, its absorption by
Beijing would be a relatively simple matter. http://english.chosun.com/w21data/html/news/200501/200501130026.html
お茶会はウリなら起源ﾆﾀﾞ！
One of Korea's oldest cultural traditions will become part of
Honolulu's ethnic landscape with the opening of
the Myung Won Tea Ceremony Center at the Palolo Korean Buddhist Temple.
The 2,000-year-old Korean tea ceremony was nearly lost until revived by
the late Myung Won,
who was awarded a Presidential Order of Merit for cultural contribution
to Korea.
Her Myung Won Cultural Foundation is now led by her daughter, Kim Eui
Jung, who was named a living treasure of Korea and
designated Intangible Cultural Asset of Seoul in the Royal Court Tea
Ceremony.
Korean tea culture dates to the Kingdom of Kaya in 42 A.D., when a
unique Korean tea called Paksancha was
brought by a princess to plant in the hills of Pakwul.
In the Koryo Dynasty starting 918 A.D., the popularity of tea expanded
to scholars, literati and the public.
1392, tea ceremony achieved official designation as one of five
national rites http://starbulletin.com/2005/01/13/features/story2.html http://www.myungwonculture.org/english/education/01.htm
The VND5.5 billion ($350,000) products had arrived at Hai Phong Port
from the Republic of Korea in September without an owner.
Japan Tobacco Inc., the owner of the two trademarks, confirmed all the
products were counterfeit.
This is the first time that such a large quantity of fake cigarettes
has been destroyed in Viet Nam.

S.
Ted Kwon, a patent and trademark expert and partner at Seoul law firm
Kim, Shin & Yu, reckons-conservatively-that South Korea's
counterfeiters produce at least 1 million copies a year.
South
Korea's counterfeiters are busily exporting their wares worldwide.
Korean-made copies account for the largest number of counterfeits
seized in Japan, while in the U.S. they consistently place in the top
three.
★A Korean counterfeiter based near Tokyo says he sold 100,000 super
copies in Japan alone last year.
★At the same time, working with overseas Koreans in Los Angeles, he has
now started shipping his forgeries to the U.S.
According to a survey of 500 Japanese schoolteachers by the
government-funded Consumer Education Help Centre,
20%
had bought counterfeits. Of those, 63% bought them because they were
cheap, 36% for fun and-significantly-25% because they were of high
quality.
a South Korean journalist (who asked not to be named)
suspects they might be, at least in Korea. "Every woman in Korea owns
at least one counterfeit bag, even my mother,"
says the journalist, who happily carries a fake Gucci bag to interviews
with politicians, police officers and officials.
"You
can tell women on the subway are carrying fake bags because any Korean
who can afford genuine European luxury goods doesn't take the subway,"
the journalist adds.
"She drives or is driven." If she's right,
then almost one in two women on some subway lines in central Seoul is
carrying a counterfeit.
★"We tried it for the first time with a
Kelly bag in Japan about a year ago," says the Korean counterfeiter who
runs seven factories. "We thought it looked great so we put it on sale
in a discount store
★we work with for about \500,000 ($3,900). We
weren't sure what would happen but it sold literally in a day, so ever
since we've been selling most of our Kelly bags as originals."
Korean Netizens are now demanding that the “foreign English teachers
who degraded Korean women”
be punished, and are planning to hold demonstrations and take legal
measures to ensure that justice is done.
The Korean portal site Daum has also started a petition signing
campaign to expel “low-quality foreign teachers.”
They’re looking for 10,000 signatures, and they’ve got about 3,931. The
campaign is also recruiting a “[Counter-]
Yankee Strike Force.” They say the use of violence is prohibited, but
they’d like to get together and hold a protest
demonstration. There targets are
1) the “Yankee bastards” who put up the instructions on how to molest
female students, and their accomplices;
2) the “Yankee bastards” who threw the wild party in Hongik;
3) the club owner;
4) institute owners who hire ex-cons or under-qualified teachers;
5) as a “bonus,” drunk GIs who might be in the Shinchon area starting
fights with local citizens.
Membership is open to all Korean nationals (no kyopos allowed,
apparently ? perhaps the organizers read this) with
“wholesome thoughts (more like worldview).” They’ll meet at 6:00 p.m.
Saturday near the front gate of Hongik
Just so there’s no confusion…English Spectrum and I will be hosting two
parties at Mary Jane’s in Hongdae on
BOTH the 14th (Friday night) and the 15th (Saturday night).
Each party will be slightly different. On the 14th, it will be much the
same as the last two; meaning some sex in the
female bathroom, some late night dance floor grinding and partial
nudity, mixed in with the addition of some clothes
-allergic professionals who should be making a guest appearance that
night.
On the 15th, we will be holding an MC’ed Sexy Game Night. We will be
selling drinks at an exceptionally low price
from 9-12 to get everyone hammered prior to the games. From 12 to about
4 am, we’ll play a bunch of team-oriented,
guy-girl-guy-girl
games, each for small prizes. This will be mixed in with a fair amount
of dancing (hip hop and otherwise) intermissions.
Both nights will be fun, but a little bit different. If you can make
one or the other or both, please come and join the fun.
The 15th will be a good time to meet new people and develop some
interesting relationships.

play golf, in order to work in the
entertainment establishments there… Because most of them use tourist
visas, there is virtually nothing we can
do to stop them.”

TVBS anchorwoman Kelly Hsueh (薛楷莉) has broken her silence over
allegations that she exploited
a wealthy Japanese businessman and was involved in other improprieties.
Over the past two days
she has given interviews to local Chinese media to clarify her
position.
Hsueh told the China Times Express yesterday that her initial silence
did not mean she is guilty.
She said she was only handling the case in the way her company had
instructed her.
According to Hsueh, her accusers had fabricated many false stories to
harm her.
"Since they are accusing me of fraud and exploitation, they are free to
sue me and they should not
release self-contradictory stories in the media everyday," Hsueh was
quoted by the paper as saying.
The allegations against her involve Japan-based painter Yao Hsu-teng
(姚旭燈) and his friend, a
Korean businessman residing in Japan, who is identified by his Japanese
name as E. Tokuhara
(ｺ原榮玉).

It would appear that a new service is hitting the piazzas of major
Chinese cities.
What one would call a growth industry? Or perhaps not judging by the
reactions of the punters.
I politely asked him to step aside. He ignored me and went on
shouting nasally into the phone. His
loud, annoying Chinese voice was eating away at my weary nerves. After
being polite, and being
ignored for an extended period of time, I growled, "EXCUSE ME!" and
shoved my way into the
bathroom. Immediately he grabbed my arm and started scolding me in
Chinese. I yanked my arm back
and went to the bathroom. Waving his cigarette in the air, the old man
continued to yell at me as I
made my way out. Something about respecting your elders....
Finally I made it back to my table. I sat there next to my brother. I
noticed some old Chinese women
pointing at me. I ignored them and went on eating. Later on while I was
walking through the crowd, I
pretended not to see those same old women again. This time I overheard
some of their conversation.
They made fun of some of the Caucasians and African-Americans, the
"foreigners" who were here as
friends of the family or as spouses of other family members. It never
really bothered me until now
because I never really paid any attention to what was going on.
Caucasians had always been referred
to as "Lo-fans" or "Fan-wi-lo." I never gave much thought to the
meanings of any of these phrases
which, directly translated, mean "white barbarian" and "white demon."
It even made me more ashamed
of "My Heritage" when I heard them refer to African-Americans using the
Chinese word for charcoal.
But then they referred to me as a "Jook-sing."
Letter From North Korea: Inside the Hermit Kingdom
Newsweek International Jan. 24 issue
Call me crazy, but I've always wanted to go to North Korea.
Impenetrable, enigmatic, a tantalizing blank spot on the map.
I had watched the old Soviet Union open up. Could something similar be
happening in the Hermit Kingdom?
North Korea makes Russia look like a human-rights paradise, even in the
bad old days.
"Hollywood?" one asked. "What's that?"
Was
I witnessing the glimmerings of glasnost, the opening that brought down
communism in Russia? Hardly. The limits of the experiment are
everywhere apparent.
You only have to look beyond the barbed-wire
boundaries of the hotel for the dreary reality of the North to become
apparent?a gray uniformity that makes the old East Bloc look sprightly
by comparison.
The prices set by Northern managers betray a
profound cluelessness about market workings. (Six dollars to go to the
toilet? Ten dollars for a bag of nuts that costs a quarter of that in
the South?)
This seemed more like a desperate groping toward
Chinese-style authoritarian market reforms without any of the strategic
vision that has made them so successful. The country's impenetrability
remains. http://msnbc.msn.com/id/6831940/site/newsweek/

Koreans in U.S. have low median income
Koreans living in the United States had median family incomes
substantially below that for all Asian families,
although Asians as a whole were better off than all American families,
a U.S. census report says.
The median income of Asian families was $59,324 - $9,000 higher than
the median for all families -
but
Korean family income only stood at $47,624, according to the
bicentennial report by the U.S. Census Bureau issued in December 2004.
Japanese and Asian Indian families enjoyed median incomes more than
$10,000 higher than that of all Asian families.
Japanese were at $70,849, Indians $70,708, Chinese $60,058, Pakistanis
$50,189 and Thais $49,635.
Korean men and women reported $38,776 and $28,403, compared to $40,650
for Asian men and $31,049 for Asian women.
Analysts said key to earnings may be related to English skillsﾌﾟｯ！
Japanese were the only group with over 50 percent speaking only English
at home, with 52.7 percent.
About
27.2 percent of Japanese said they don't speak the language less than
very well, and 20 percent were non-English at home, but speak English
very well.
In a survey on the poverty rate in 1999, Korean families were 14.8
percent,
while the average Asian population was at 12.6 percent, which is
similar to that of the total population of 12.4 percent.
The contrasts are detailed in the report, which provides data on such
items as age, marital status, citizenship,
language, education, earnings, poverty rates, occupation and home
ownership among 11 Asian American groups.
Median family income, for instance, ranged from $70,849 for Japanese
and $70,708 for Asian Indians.
The median annual income of Asian families exceeded that of all U.S.
families,
and the percentage of Asians with at least a bachelor's degree was
almost double that of the total population,
according to the 2000 census.
Median family Income
Japanese (7.8%) $70,849
Asian Indian (16.2%) $70,708
Filipino (18.3%) $65,189

Let's Put an End to 'Ugly Korea'
Five female Thai workers
at a Korean manufacturing company have come down with multiple
neuropathy and are unable to use their legs,
and 3 who returned to Thailand after suffering the same condition now
paralyzed in their upper bodies as well.
This
is a typical example of how foreign migrant workers go into debt to
come to Korea with their dreams and end up suffering vicious
sicknesses.
The disease the women are suffering from is caused
when you work exposed to the poisonous solvent Normal-Hexane without
protection.
That's why industrial law requires the use of gloves, facial
protection, and masks
The
realities the workers endured are shocking. They worked directly with
the chemical for 15 hours a day, without protection and in closed
space, for in some cases up to 3 years.
They worked long hours in dangerous jobs and were not even paid minimum
wage!!
In Thailand, other Southeast Asian nations, and even amongst ethnic
Koreans in China,
South
Korea has for some time now been criticized as an "ugly country" for
exploiting foreign laborers just because it has come to enjoy a higher
standard of living.
There must be an end to instances where foreigners who come to Korea
for work are exploited or worked to death. http://www.hani.co.kr/section-001100000/2005/01/001100000200501150743001.html
So after spending the morning in Tsukiji, I was in Ginza for the rest
of the day with MY BROTHER, and
my brother was telling me a funny story about how he was an MC for a TV
show about a
Japanese/KOREAN high school joint activity, where two classes went on a
vacation together and had
become "buddies". So my brother was polite about it and asking "nice"
questions, but the director
wanted to see more Jerry Springer-style action, so my brother asked
them more provocative questions
like "don't you think it's evil to get conscripted and serve your
military?", "do you think the history
they taught you in school is true?", or "my British vegan friend thinks
that North Korea and South
Korea are all part of one fascist system," and the pimply kids got all
worked up and red in the face.

Well, from what I can tell, the rest of Asian actually are not into
Japanese culture or whatever as much as Japanese expect. Almost all
of them focus on Chinese/ Korean/Western music celebrities than
Japanese
ones. If they have favorite in Japanese media culture, that's JAPANESE
PORN. Japan is definitely leading exporter of porn videos in Asia.
However
it doesn't mean J-chicks are the hottest in Asia. If you feel asian men
are definitely desperate for hooking up with J-chicks, the one of
reasons is they actually consider J-chicks are more acceptable about
easily sex or whatsoever than the rest of Asian chicks, by influence
of Japanese porn. Otherwise, you look really hot in their eyes, if you
don't want to date with them, you keep ignorant them. That's all you
need.
http://forum.japantoday.com/fb.asp?m=289780
Almost all of them don't follow Japanese culture and don't consider us
as the best looking in Asia except part of dudes stuck on naked
J-chicks
pictures because they just need to watch naked asian chicks for
masturbation or whatever because they don't have so much obscene videos
or naked chicks' pictures as Japanese have. however it doesn't mean
they
want to get a Japanese gf.

guuuuuuuuuuuys! I adore them! and almost my Japanese female friends in
SE
Asia here want to hook up with local（or Chinese ）guys or end up with
them
( almost Chinese heritage men ) in fact ! Surely Korean men currently
seem
to be hot in Japanese media. Korean men aside, from what I can tell,
almost
all of Japanese women in the east have NO problem with Chinese men. And
as
a matter of fact, the number of marriage of Japanese women with Chinese
men ( even just only mainland China and Hong Kong nationalities ) is
about
the same as the counterpart with western men in fact.
I exclusively date with Chinese heritage men for this several yrs, now
I'm
already an adorer of Chinese meeeeeen!!!!!!! hahahahahahaha And CHINESE
MOVIES
HAVE BEEN SEEN IN JAPAN FOR A LONG LONG TIME BEFORE KOREAN DORAMA
BROKEN OUT
It's true the majority of Japanese women thinks it's wierd to go out
with Chinese or other Asian men.
But there are some(or a few) women who thinks Asian men are hot like
"Namaekaeta".
I respect their own value on love affairs.
Aaargh! Namaekaeta, I have no doubt you are japanese.
So, can everyone post in english again in here. Usually it is not
allowed to write japanese outside

They
also reveal that Korean negotiators made a number of statements that
could be construed as surrendering the rights of individual Koreans to
sue the Japanese government.

The
1,200 pages of documents show that South Korea agreed never to make
further compensation demands, either at the government or individual
level,
after receiving $800 million in grants and soft loans from Japan as
compensation for its 1910-45 colonial rule.
The
documents were drawn up in 1963-65, the final years of South Korea's
14-year normalization talks with its former colonial ruler.
Japan
has generally refused to pay damages to individuals, saying it settled
the issue on a government-to-government basis under the 1965 agreement.
It is the first time that the clause in favor of Japan's demand has

The
1,200 pages of documents show that South Korea agreed never to make
further compensation demands, either at the government or individual
level,
after receiving $800 million in grants and soft loans from Japan as
compensation for its 1910-45 colonial rule.
The
documents were drawn up in 1963-65, the final years of South Korea's
14-year normalization talks with its former colonial ruler. The two
neighbors established diplomatic ties in 1965 amid strong protests in
South Korea.
Japan has generally refused to pay damages to
individuals, saying it settled the issue on a government-to-government
basis under the 1965 agreement.
It is the first time that the clause in favor of Japan's demand has
been officially confirmed by South Korea.

The
former government raised a total of 107.7 billion won ($100 million)
from the 300-million grants from Japan, but spent only 9.7 percent of
it for compensation,
including 2.56 billion won ($2.48 million) for 8,552 victims between
1975 and 1977.

Since Japan's responsibility to comfort women arises under customary

it would be instructive to explore further the state of human rights
law during the pre-World War II era.
One international convention to which Japan is bound is the

Resolving the Wartime Forced Labor Compensation Question
by Minami Norio http://japanfocus.org/article.asp?id=138
It
has been estimated that during the war some 38,000 Chinese were
forcibly brought to Japan to supplement domestic labor. These people
were forced to work under draconian conditions at 135 locations
throughout Japan
The
ministry said that of 160,000 Korean people who married foreigners
since 1990, 50,000 were women, and they married 26,162 Japanese
husbands, 13,174 Americans and 1,471 Chinese.
Korean men, for
their part, married 13,373 Chinese, 1,403 Vietnamese, 1,242 Japanese
and 944 Filipino women, with Western women barely getting a look in.

UN Warns Against Too Much Aid for N. Korea Jan.17,2005 http://english.chosun.com/w21data/html/news/200501/200501170024.html
The warning comes from a 3,000-page report released Monday and prepared
by Columbia University Professor Jeffrey Sachs,
who has led the international body's anti-poverty efforts.
Sachs
was appointed by UN General Secretary Kofi Annan to head the
anti-poverty Millennium Project and come up with an action plan to meet
the UN’s “millennium development goals” by 2015.
The report, titled “Investing in Development",
classified
North Korea, Myanmar, Zimbabwe and Belarus as badly led,
poverty-stricken states widely condemned for human rights abuses, and
advised they should not receive large amounts of international aid.

In
the rush to normalize bilateral ties between Japan and South Korea in
1965, the issue of compensation was left fundamentally unresolved,
opening the door to more claims that dog relations to the present day,

as possible.
And to be fair,many of my male friends are the same with me (except
some from the conservative family son)
But whereever I go to over the net ,if i say I am a Korean man,they
perceive me as agressive rude macho man towards women.
Its very big disadvantaged image for Korean men.
Do you have any bad experienced with meeting Korean men?
Korean men are usually known to be agressive,women beating,rough macho
men.
I agree that the probability of you would meet those childish macho
Korean men
is still higher than any other countries' men.
But hey things have changed quite a lot.
We have also many dearly sweet men here.
Its pretty sad that I face this preconception whenever I would try to
meet a nice woman oversea!!!
Especially Chinese women are scared of meeting Korean men!
International Herald Tribune Jan 18, 2005 http://www.iht.com/getina/files/219027.html
Thirty-year-old
documents related to the normalization of relations between Korea and
Japan after World War II show that the administration of then-President
Park Chung Hee
took a lump sum payment of $800 million for
atrocities committed by the Japanese and then withheld compensation
from all but a few individual victims and their families.
In
1965, in exchange for the money in grants and low-interest loans, the
South Korean government agreed not to press Japan for further
compensation.
With proof that most of the money was used for
the development of the country's economy, lawsuits are now expected
from individual families against the government.
The documents
show the lump sum came in the form of $300 million in grants, and $500
million in low interest and commercial loans, which were mainly used to
build highways across the country,
establish public companies such
as Pohang Iron & Steel and build up the country's agriculture and
fishing industries. Between 1975 and 1977,
the South Korean government paid out just 2.56 billion won (or $5.3
million at the time) to the families of 8,552 victims.

Japanese supervisors taunted and harassed Lee?about his national

Message
1: Japan is superior to Korea when it comes to the Japanese prime
minister Junichiro Koizumi’s visit to the Yasukuni Shrine.
A
Japanese paying tribute to his ancestors who died during World War II
at the Yasukuni Shrine looks more dignified than people who just
complain about the prime minister’s official visit to the shrine.
Message 2: Pornography is the source of Japan’s strength.
Message 3: Japan doesn’t deserve to be called a copier.
I remember one Korean media have said all asians are the
descendant of Korea.
I remember one Korean have said English is improved indirectly from
Korean language.
I remember a professor of a Korean University have said my home
country,
Taiwan, was the colony of Kogryo in the ancient time.
Well, if they think so, why can't they prove it?
And I like to ask them that if they hate Japan so much, then why dont
they break down
the aproximately 3000 schools built by Japanese? Why are they still
using the bridges,
buildings, and other constructions built by Japanese. In fact, those
constructions built
from taxes on Japanese people. But I guess koreans never be tought
about it. What if
Russians occupy the Korean Penisula instead of Japan? Would they have
steped the
same way as Eastern Europe? Do Koreans know how the Ukiranians treated
during WWII? Well,
i can easily imagine that Koreans would hate me now.

Korea Was Most Efficient in Utilizing Japanese Reparation JANUARY 19,
2005 http://japan.donga.com/srv/service.php3?biid=2005012004148 http://english.donga.com/srv/service.php3?bicode=020000&biid=2005012004148
A
report indicated that among the five Asian nations that received
reparation from Japan, South Korea used the money most efficiently.
Philippines
received the biggest amount in free loans, $550 million, followed by
Korea with $300 million, Indonesia with $223.08 million, Myanmar with
$200 million and Vietnam with $39 million.
When the credit loan
from the Japanese government and commercial loans by the private sector
are counted, Korea and Philippines were the biggest recipients with
$800 million each.
Both countries invested the money mainly to
improve social infrastructure and the public living standard. However,
Korea exceeded Philippines in terms of return of investment, according
to the report.
South Korea spent most of the money establishing
social infrastructures, founding POSCO, building Kyungbu Highway and
the Soyang River Dam. The report said, “South Korea efficiently spent
the reparation with specific plans.
The
Western-Wilshire neighborhood around Le Prive now has the highest crime
rate in the Los Angeles Police Department’s Wilshire Division, and is
among the most crime-ridden in the city,

The FBI and the U.S. attorney's office identified the subjects of the
search as
Zengrong Lin, Guozhi Lin, Wen Quin Zheng and Xiujin Chen.

statement.
This is updated information about those Chinese nationals who
have supposedly entered t

The FBI has published a nationwide bulletin for all law enforcement to
be on the lookout
(BOLO) for 11 Chinese nationals, not just four as has been previously
reported.
in the report they are listed as possibly armed and dangerous and "All
pose risk to national
security" They have the names on all of them and I have included them
here.

Also the person who called these people in, indicated that a nuclear
device of some type
was also entering behind them, so this group of 11 may be split up. It
also reports a timeline
of within the next 4 days for something to happen. To be fair, there is
also a disclaimer that
says that the smuggler could have been ripped off and was getting
revenge on those who he
smuggled. But everyone is going to of course, play it safe.

North Korean Ties Complicate Japan's Efforts to Clean Up Banks
The Wall St. Journal http://www2.gol.com/users/coynerhm/north_korean_ties_complicate_japan_banks.htm
TOKYO
-- To the U.S., North Korea is a member of the "axis of evil," but to
Tokyo, Pyongyang is also part of Japan's huge banking mess.
Japan
is under pressure from Washington to get tough with North Korea,
including choking off the flow of funds that ethnic Koreans in Japan
send to the North.
The funds to North Korea come from Japan's
chogin credit unions, chogin literally means Korean bank -- which
mainly serve the large community of ethnic Koreans in Japan who are
loyal to the North.
But many Japanese legislators, among others,
allege the chogin have funneled billions of dollars to the secretive
communist government in the North.
But there are diplomatic costs
to consider. Leaning on the chogin could fuel criticism that Tokyo is
discriminating against Korean residents, an especially touchy subject.
Much
of that chogin money have been used by the North Korean government to
buy weapons, while the populace has been suffering from malnutrition
and even starvation for the past several years.
U.S. and Japanese
experts on North Korea estimate that anywhere from less than a $100
million to more than $1 billion flows from Japan to North Korea every
year.
In addition to legal remittances by ethnic Koreans, some of the money
is undeclared taxable income.
Do korean hate the chinese name of their Capital city so much?
漢城,means a city of Chinese or a city imitate Han(Chinese) culture,

We chinese really like that name cause it's sounds brotherly,If korea
don't like it
You may chang it into ?城 or 韓城，that means a city of Korean, also
pronounces
"Han Cheng",But please don't rename it as "Shouer" “首?” or“首爾”,
that sounds silly make me thinking of some rustic names hehhe

An increasing number of Korean mothers make their children study
English in the US during the summer vacation,
lying to officials that they are going to emigrate there. They don't
pay any tax,
nor did their ancestors fight in the War of Independence, but enjoy the
benefits of a free education and then return to Korea
leaving
baffled teachers behind. There are also a large group of mothers who
send their children to the US for a long time to study English for
free.
This gives me huge concerns on the future of America's public education
system.
I was embarrassed when I heard one such mother staying in the US tell
her children not to play with black or Latino children.
It was an extreme irony for an illegal Korean immigrant to show
prejudice to bona fide Americans.

foreign countries
The most illegal emigrants ? nearly 183,000 ? were in the United
States,
followed by Canada with some 100,000.
There are about 46,500 illegal emigrants in Japan
and 10, 000 in the Philippines, the report said.
震災後、親中鮮になった神戸は、欧米人には住み難くなり、
欧米人は、関東へどんどん出て行ってるそうです。
The Japan Times: Jan. 19, 2005 By ERIC JOHNSTON http://www.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/getarticle.pl5?nn20050119f1.htm
Ten years after the deadly earthquake, the structure of Kobe's
traditional foreign community has changed,
with fewer Westerners and a growing number of East Asians living in the
port city.
Today,
Kobe is still home to many foreigners,But few Westerners are moving in,
and many long-term residents are leaving for Tokyo
At the same
time, there has been a noticeable increase in the number of Chinese and
Korean residents, especially in private international schools,
which
were once the domain of Westerners. According to local foreign
residents, the trend, which began in the 1980s, accelerated after the
quake.
As of last October, there were 44,449 registered foreigners
living in Kobe. These included 23,755 Koreans, 12,203 Chinese, 1,109
Vietnamese and 1,067 Indians.
By contrast, there were 1,245 Americans, 463 Britons and 245 Canadians.
One
area where we've noticed a real difference is in the international
schools, where over the past few years there have been fewer Western
children and more from East Asia,
especially (South) Korea," said
George Gibbons, a Kobe resident from Britain who recently retired as an
official at Marist Brothers International School.
"Kobe and Hyogo Prefecture made huge mistakes in the months after the
earthquake by ignoring the advice
and
offers of assistance of the Western community on how to rebuild in ways
that would both keep foreigners who were already here
and attract foreign investment," said a Tokyo-based Western diplomat
who used to live in Kobe.
在日の陰謀→"Decisions on how to build an 'international city' were made by
bureaucrats
John
Lawrence, a former American resident of Kobe who moved to Yokohama
after the quake, echoed the complaints of many Westerners
So if I'm a left-wing, are you a right-wing or something banning
the freedom of speech? Are the Tokyoites Nazis or something?
Unless you are living under the dictatorship, I have right to
say and do anything I like. That's called the freedom of speech.
If the administrator or mods of this site don't like what I said,
they'll ban me from this site, as simple as that. In any case,
not you or the Channel 2. This website is above all an amateur
public site, where the skyscraper lovers come and chat what they want
to. This isn't a childish witch trial or something in the medieval
time. If you can't follow the western rule, go home and posting in
the Japanese websites, where there are only Japanese forumers 99%
of the time. Now I've realized that Japan is a horrifying nation
bleaching the "human rights" and am glad that I'm not in that country
at the moment.
I don't want to conform into that society or people but want some
true freedom. Anyway so I will become some "foreigners" from now on.
Do believe what you wanna believe, I'm an American or Chinese bashing
Japan if you like. So I have the right to say what I wanna say
about Japan or any other countries. I like the countries where they
respect the human rights such as W.Europe. At least there aren't
narrow-minded conservatives like yourself there. Japan isn't my
place to be. You're one of those typical Japanese who can't accept
someone who is different from you because you don't know the world
outside. Anyway I'm now totally free to bash Japan whenever I like
since I'm not Japanese.
Japan Asks Airlines to Reject 'East Sea' Name
TOKYO, Jan.
21 (Yonhap) -- Japan's foreign ministry sent 34 international airlines
flying in to Tokyo a letter asking them to reject
South Korean
requests to use the name "East Sea" when referring to the body of water
that separates the two countries, an official at the South Korean
embassy in Tokyo confirmed Friday.
The letter, which was sent on Jan. 14, is seen as a response to the
South Korean Ministry of Construction and Transportation's
request of airlines flying to Seoul to use the term "East Sea" instead
of "Sea of Japan."
The 34 airlines include the two South Korean airlines Korean Air and
Asiana Airline, the official said. http://english.yna.co.kr/Engnews/20050121/310000000020050121221503E0.html http://english.donga.com/srv/service.php3?bicode=060000&biid=2005012237698
The
notice claimed a 97 percent usage of “Sea of Japan” in world maps in 60
countries worldwide based on research done in 2000 and also cited
the ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization)’s decision to
unify the term to the “Sea of Japan” in August 2004.
The
document was dispatched to Delta and Northwest Airlines in the U.S., as
well as Air France, China Eastern Airlines, Air Canada, Lufthansa,
Singapore Airlines, Air India, among others.
Korean Air and Asiana Airlines also received this notice.
VANK
(www.prkorea.com), a “cyber embassy,” cited additional reasons such as,
“Japan’s claim that 97 percent of world maps in 2000 used the ‘Sea of

TOKYO
? Joji Obara may be Japan's most notorious symbol of moral decay. The
scion of a wealthy family, he entered the country's property
speculation boom just as it turned to bust,
yet never allowed failure to crimp a lifestyle that included trolling
Tokyo's nightclubs to hire women for companionship.
Tokyo
police and prosecutors allege that he also is a serial rapist and
killer. On Feb. 1, in what is the latest in a long line of snail-paced
trials in Japan,
Obara will be back in court to defend himself
over the July 2000 disappearance, rape, death and dismemberment of
Lucie Blackman. The 21-year-old British woman was a nightclub hostess
last seen at Obara's beachfront home on the day she died.

A policeman who had been taken hostage while attempting to arrest a
31-year-old suspected drug dealer in the
western city of Neuss was released after his captor injected himself
with drugs, got sleepy, and was taken without
incident into custody by police forces. The drama unfolded when two
policeman attempted to arrest the man. But
the suspect stabbed one police officer in the neck and shot at the
other, hitting him in the arm. The officer with the
stab wound was able to run away, but the other was held by the suspect.
Several hundred police officers then
surrounded the building and sealed off the area.

The U.S. Embassy has warned of "potential threats" against Americans in
the vicinity of a college area in western Seoul
The
warning was issued amid growing resentment from Koreans regarding
demeaning comments made by foreigners about Korean women on an
English-language Web site "English Spectrum."
The site was designed to provide information for foreigners living in
Korea.
"We
have noted recently a strong reaction in the form of web postings
threatening attacks in the vicinity of Hongik University and the
Sinchon area against Americans and other foreigners
who speak English," said an embassy internal message.
The embassy advised U.S. citizens to be aware that their public
behavior might be interpreted as provocative by Koreans.
The
warning came days after Koreans became aware of the "Ask the Playboy"
forum which had comments referring to Korea's "easy women." The site
also included topics like "how to sleep with Korean women."
the hot issue among local Netizens was a post by an English
teacher in Korea who wrote that local women treated him like a king and
were easy to sleep with.
When the photos were discovered, it was like pouring oil on an open
fire.
In
mid-December, photos from the party were posted on English Spectrum, a
website frequented by foreign English teachers working in Korea.
They
had been taken by some of the foreigners who attended the party and
depicted Korean women and Western men dancing together in a suggestive
way, Korean women revealing
their breasts or underwear, as well as Western men and Korean women
touching genetals and kissing.
The
photos escaped public scrutiny until 10 days ago, when they sparked an
outcry at the height of the cyberspace hysteria about "foreign teachers
degrading Korean women."
Online rage switched targets from foreign
men to the Korean women in the photos. Some online media described the
pictures as "scenes of women openly enjoying sex with foreigners."
These stories were often accompanied by malicious comments like,
"Whores, are Western bastards that good?" and,
"The English you learn from selling yourself is body language, not real
English." Even more frightening was that calls for
the women's names, work places, email addresses and phone numbers to be
made public were promptly answered. http://english.chosun.com/w21data/html/news/200501/200501240027.html http://blog.marmot.cc/archives/category/stupid-foreigner-tricks/

US panel to review sale of IBM PC unit to China's Lenovo
WASHINGTON (AFX) - A US government panel is currently reviewing the
deal that would transfer IBM 's
PC-making business to China's largest personal computer-maker Lenovo,
IBM said.
IBM said it is cooperating with the review by the Committee on Foreign
Investments in the United States
(CFIUS), an interagency panel that may review mergers or acquisitions
that affect national security.
'IBM has filed the required legal notice with the Committee on Foreign
Investments,' said IBM spokesman
Edward Barbini in a statement.
'IBM is following all the normal and routine procedures in the review
of this transaction.'
A spokeswoman for the US Treasury Department, which chairs CFIUS, said
the agency is barred from
commenting on any matters before the panel.
'We do not comment on matters that may be under review by CFIUS,' said
Molly Millerwise, the Treasury
spokeswoman.
A CFIUS review forced Hong Kong's Hutchison Whampoa to withdraw its bid
for bankrupt group Global
Crossing (NASDAQ: GLBC - news) in 2003 amid concerns about control of a
key telecom provider by a
firm with close ties to the Chinese government.
The
CFIUS committee is chaired by the US treasury secretary, and includes
the secretaries of state, defense, and commerce, the attorney general,
the director of the Office of Management and Budget, the US
Trade Representative, and the chairman of the Council of Economic
Advisers. http://uk.biz.yahoo.com/050124/323/faz80.html

15 Illegal S. Korean Immigrants Arrested Mon, Jan. 24, 2005 AP
ALBUQUERQUE,
N.M Fifteen illegal immigrants from South Korea and the man accused of
trying to smuggle them across the United States were arrested on a New
York-bound Amtrak train
in Albuquerque, federal officials said Monday.
The
men and the alleged smuggler, 27-year-old Pyung Seop Lee, were arrested
Thursday at the city's train station, according to U.S. Immigration and
Customs Enforcement officials.
Lee also is believed to be in the country illegally, officials said.
The
group, all men ranging from 23 to 35 years old, had Republic of Korea
passports that lacked the proper U.S. visa or admission stamps,
according to the agency.
authorities were tipped off about the
group by Drug Enforcement Administration investigators who noted the
foreign nationals' reservations on the Amtrak train's travel manifest.
When
agents intercepted the train bound for New York, Lee told them the
group was part of a tour. He said he was traveling with the group until
they reached Chicago but was not part of the tour.
The agents then found the mens' train tickets, passports and $4,000
cash in Lee's luggage, according to the complaint.
Two
of the illegal immigrants, Dae Seong Jeon and Jeong Geon Park, told
investigators they flew from Korea Dec. 21 to Canada. After spending a
week in a Vancouver motel,
they said they joined six other Koreans and were driven across the
U.S.-Canada border to Los Angeles.
After
about a month stashed in a Los Angeles house, they said Lee came to the
house and instructed the group to meet him at an Amtrak train station,
where they boarded the train. http://www.abqjournal.com/news/metro/apimmig01-24-05.htm http://www.newsday.com/news/nationworld/nation/wire/sns-ap-koreans-arrested,0,6810573.story?coll=sns-ap-nation-headlines http://www.kplctv.com/Global/story.asp?S=2851694

Forger created fake wives to obtain visas to the U.S.
November
23, 2004 ? Police said yesterday they have seized evidence indicating
that as many as 250 single Korean women have illegally entered the
United States
by representing themselves as the wives of well-to-do employees at some
of Korea's major corporations.
Records
confiscated from "visa brokers" in Seoul turned up documents that
showed hundreds of U.S. visa applications had been forged.
In
general, the U.S. Consulate in Seoul refuses to issue visas to young,
unmarried women who do not have strong family ties in Korea
or who cannot demonstrate that they have significant financial
resources.
According to the police, Mr. Yang worked with two accomplices, only
identified as Mr. Kim and Sally.
Beginning
in January 2001, the three suspects in the case placed advertisements
in Korean-language newspapers in Los Angeles and
on Internet sites, claiming that young women could earn high incomes
working as barmaids and cosmetologists.
The brokers charged the women up to 8 million won ($7,500). Police
estimated their total earnings at about 2 billion won.
The seized records showed that 320 customers had sought the brokers'
help, with 250 having already left the country.
An officer working on the case said, "For those applicants rejected by
the United States,
the brokers arranged trips to Canada and then smuggled them into the
United States." http://joongangdaily.joins.com/200411/22/200411222207040909900090409041.html
Japan's
hesitation to eliminate visas reportedly was due to the large number of
South Koreans illegally overstaying their visas in Japan, totaling
46,425 as of January. http://washingtontimes.com/upi-breaking/XXXXXXXXX9537r.htm

Scams/Abuse/Deaths - US Department of State -
Crackdown Targets Immigration Fraud
By Akilah Johnson, Los Angeles Times, August 29, 2003
Authorities in California are cracking down on scam immigration
"experts" who promise to help illegal immigrants
legalize their status but just steal their money instead.
State
Attorney General Bill Lockyer set up the Office of Immigrant Assistance
two years ago and so far has filed charges against
14 unlawful immigration businesses.
Legitimate immigration consultants are required to be licensed by the
state and post a $50,000 bond.
There are about 700 bona fide immigration consultants in California.
Immigrants make up 25 percent of California's population and are
attractive targets to criminals.
In January this year, Lockyer intervened on behalf of some 300 Korean
immigrants in the San Francisco Bay area
who
were facing deportation. They had paid up to $30,000 each to
unscrupulous immigration "advisers" who gave them illegal green cards.
Johnson
writes: "According to the Federal Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration
Services, fraud cases of all types have jumped 27 percent nationwide
this year." http://usinfo.state.gov/eap/east_asia_pacific/chinese_human_smuggling/smuggling_in_the_press/scams_abuse_deaths.html

January
27, 2005 [US News]: WASHINGTON, The younger generation of South Koreans
and their elected government do not share U.S. concerns about threats
from North Korea,
posing a challenge for Seoul and Washington, analysts said on
Wednesday.
Seoul's
center-left government, a formal security ally of Washington since
1953, draws its support from South Koreans too young to remember
U.S. backing in the Korean War or decades of belligerence from the
Communist North, they said.
While
older South Koreans are wary of North Korea and supportive of the
United States, the young display "nationalist sentiment and a tolerant
attitude toward North Korea,"
said Lee Nae-young, politics professor at Korea University.
Many South Koreans born after 1960 "fail to distinguish between the
North Korean people and the Kim Jong-il regime,
downplay human rights and are ignorant of the security threats posed by
North Korea," Lee told an Asia Society seminar.
"What
we see as anti-Americanism does reflect differences over North Korea,"
said Thomas Hubbard, who retired in August after three years as U.S.
ambassador in Seoul
and was deeply involved in nuclear negotiations with the North in the
1990s.
While trying to work closely with Washington, Seoul policymakers are
trying to keep alive a North-South detente that
has shattered Cold War certainties and allowed many South Koreans to
visit the North in recent years, he said.
The October enactment of the U.S. North Korea Human Rights Act --
unanimously passed by the American Congress,
but criticized in Pyongyang and Seoul -- has made the rights issue a
potential new irritant, Hubbard said.

Traffic Tips for Los Angeles Best Taken With a Pinch of Kimchi July 30,
2003 NY Times
There is another truism, says Seong Un Joe, a radio celebrity and one
of the best-known men in Koreatown
who is known to his audience by a Korean name that translates loosely
as Dr. Driving.
"Koreans cannot drive, that is fair to say," says the doctor, a
Korean-American who is 44 and the proprietor
of
the Vija Driving and Traffic School. "They are wild. They don't stay in
the rules and don't bother to know the proper etiquette."
Koreatown,
a congested neighborhood in central Los Angeles, perennially ranks high
on the police list of the most dangerous areas
for traffic collisions and deaths in the city.
Among
other pet peeves he has about his countrymen are these: They do not

They
guess on a left turn instead of waiting for a clear intersection. They
do not use their turn signals. They make rolling stops. They do not

>>【The number of crimes regardless of nationality in Japan in
2002,
according to the Japan Times Sept 23, 2003, was 2.85 million, a postwar
record high. However,
since
the Japanese population is not really increasing, the rise in the
Japanese crime rate is more marked than that for foreigners.】
>>【Moreover, according to the same Japan Times article,
the number of crimes committed in 2002 by foreigners was 1.39% of the
total.
Given the fact that the number of registered foreigners
(i.e. those on one-year visas and above) is 1.5% of the total Japanese
population,
this means that foreigners are less likely to commit crimes on average
than Japanese.】
>>【Let's mitigate that even further: Note that crimes committed
by foreigners also includes visa violations--crimes
that
Japanese by definition cannot commit, which should be caveated out for
a better comparison of crimes committed by everybody.
Since visa violations make up around a quarter to a third of the total,
the crime rate for SIMILAR crimes committed by foreigners thus drops to
around one percent of the total. 】

Memo shows fraudulent use of 10,500 military ID cards in South Korea
Stars and Stripes Sunday, January 30, 2005
CAMP RED CLOUD, South Korea ? More than 10,500 U.S. military
identification cards have been fraudulently used by South Korean
cell-phone dealers, according to a confidential Department of the Army
memo
The CCU reported to the Camp Casey-based 19th Military Police Battalion
(CID), 6th Military Police Group,
that
South Korean national cellular phone dealers near U.S. Army
installations routinely copied U.S. soldiers’ IDs when they purchased a
cell phone.
“Investigation by the CCU revealed the phone dealers
were selling the identities of the soldiers to unscrupulous individuals
who in turn initiated cell phone accounts with the soldiers’
identities,”
the memo states. “This was done in an effort by these individuals to
disguise their true identities from law enforcement.”
“For the
past two years CCU identified approximately 10,500 ID cards, all
belonging to U.S. soldiers throughout South Korea that were
fraudulently used by the phone dealers,
of which about 85 percent of the 10,500 victims (8,400) were identified
as soldiers in Area I,” the memo continued. http://www.estripes.com/article.asp?section=104&article=26866

U.S. Navy commander says Koreas, Taiwan-China, Japan issues are a
big worry
Tuesday February 1, 4:04 PM AP
U.S. Navy commander says Koreas, Taiwan-China issues are a big worry
The
top Asian issues that worry the U.S. Navy are the potential for war in
the Koreas, China-Taiwan tensions and the growing friction between
China and Japan, the commander of the U.S. Seventh Fleet said Tuesday.
Vice
Admiral Jonathan Greenert said another concern "that keeps us awake at
night" was the threat of terrorism in Southeast Asia. He said America
wanted to create a "coalition of the willing" to root out terror groups
in the region.
But the Koreas were at the top of Greenert's list of security problems.
"Although
war in Korea is less likely today than perhaps at any other time, the
consequences are high," Greenert said in a lunch speech to the American
Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong.
North and South Korea fought
a conflict in 1950-53, but no peace treaty was signed, leaving the two
sides still technically at war. A Demilitarized Zone that splits the
rivals is guarded by nearly 2 million troops on both sides.
About 34,000 U.S. troops are stationed in the South to help guard
against the North.
The No. 2 issue on Greenert's list of worries was tensions
between Taiwan and China, which split when the Communists won a civil
war and took over the mainland in 1949.
The Taiwanese have
refused to join the mainland, and Beijing has threatened to attack if
the island drags its feet too long on the unification issue.
Greenert
said the United States hoped to encourage China and Taiwan to resolve
their differences peacefully. America also wanted to discourage the
rivals from unilaterally changing the status quo, he added.
"Key
to preventing any kind of conflict is preventing a miscalculation,"
said Greenert, who assumed command of the Seventh Fleet last August.
The
Seventh Fleet _ based in Yokosuka, Japan _ is the largest fleet in the
Navy and the only one that has its home port outside of the United
States. It comprises about 50 ships,
120 aircraft and 20,000 sailors and Marines. The USS Kittyhawk aircraft
carrier is part of the fleet.
Greenert
said the fleet was concerned about increasing China-Japan tensions
fueled by disputes over territory and drilling rights.
"We are clearly allies with Japan, and we would like to maintain great
relations with China," he said.

SEOUL,
Feb. 2 (Yonhap) -- Former Japanese Prime Minister Tomiichi Murayama
said on Wednesday Japan needs to pay compensation for Koreans
forcefully mobilized for the World War "in any way.".
"We cannot
say the issue of compensation for individuals was not completely
resolved with the war reparation treaty signed between South Korea and
Japan in 1965 and Japan cannot be
exempted from the moral responsibility for the Korean 'comfort women'
and other victims,"
Murayama said in an exclusive interview with Yonhap News Agency.

Russian Sites Sell Song Downloads For Pennies, But Are They Legal?

Besides
legal risks, the free services have other drawbacks. Users complain
that it can be difficult to find complete or high-quality music,
and the services have been plagued by spyware and viruses.
"To me, free music isn't worth an unstable PC," says Jessica Baxter, a
27-year-old in Orange County, Calif.,
who has used AllofMP3.com to download music from artists like Green Day
and the Grateful Dead.
Some users of the Russian sites complain in online forums about
incomplete albums,
poor
customer service and slow downloads. One user on iPodLounge shared
worries about handing over a credit card number to a Russian company.
"It's kind of like buying Louis Vuitton on a street corner in Korea,"
says Richard Wolpert,
chief strategy officer for RealNetworks. Mr. Wolpert says customers'
trust in a service is just as important as the selection.
Nonetheless,
the conclusion about Libya, which is contained in a classified briefing
that has been described to The New York Times,
could alter Washington's debate about the assessment of the North
Korean nuclear threat.
In the past, some administration officials have argued that there is
time to find a diplomatic solution
because there was no evidence that the government of Kim Jung Il was
spreading its atomic technology abroad.

Nearly one-third of the Japanese pachinko [pinball] industry is
controlled by Chosen affiliates or supporters.
Chosen
remittences in hard currencies to Pyongyang have been variously
estimated at between $600 million and $1.9 billion each year.
Gakushu-gumi is Chosen's underground organization, which is a
quasi-formal body of the North Korean Workers' Party.
Gakushu-gumi
, with a membership estimated at 5,000, engages in intelligence
activities and political maneuverings against South Korea.
The Chosen Soren supports intelligence operations in Japan,
assists in the infiltration of agents into South Korea,
collects open source information, and diverts advanced technology for
use by North Korea.
North Korea uses several methods to acquire technology related to
nuclear, biological, or chemical warfare and missiles.
The Chosen Soren has among other activities an ongoing effort to
acquire and export advanced technology to North Korea.

BANGOR
- Three Koreans were sentenced Tuesday in U.S. District Court to five
days in jail and fined $500 each for illegally entering the United
States.
Jong Suk Kim, 52, Jin Ho Huh, 48, both of Seoul, and Hyuk
Soo Kwon, 46, of Lee Dong, were arrested on Monday night with a fourth
individual, who was not identified by Border Patrol agents.
After serving their sentences, they are expected to be deported,
according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.
The
four were spotted crossing the border about 8:30 p.m. Monday by agents
conducting nighttime patrol flights near Houlton using infrared
instruments to monitor the border.
Agents spotted them walking
into Maine about 1/10 of a mile from the Houlton border crossing,
according to court documents. They hid in the brush next to a business
called Dance and Eat.
About 9:10 p.m. Monday, one of the four
walked back into Canada, then drove a pickup truck to the area where
the others were hiding and picked them up.
Kim, Huh and Kwon told authorities that they left Korea on or about
Jan. 20 and arrived in Toronto the same day.
After
arriving, Kim found an ad in a newspaper for a contact person offering
to smuggle people into the United States. According to court documents,
they paid $4,000 each to a man who allegedly arranged transportation to
Woodstock, New Brunswick.

Kim
faces burglary and theft charges in four Oregon counties involving
thousands of pieces of lingerie that had been taken from women's
college dormsand were found in his possession.
In Washington
County, he also faces 16 counts of possessing child pornography after
police say they discovered those types of images on his computer.
Sung Koo Kim was initially arrested in early May, about a week and a
half before
19-year-old
Brooke Wilberger disappeared from a Corvallis apartment complex where
Kim had allegedly been stalking an OSU swimmer. http://www.oregonlive.com/news/oregonian/index.ssf?/base/news/1107522003244970.xml
Authorities
accused Kim, a somewhat reclusive 30-year-old who lived with his
parents, of traveling to college campuses up and down the Willamette
Valley
to steal thousands of pairs of panties. The burglaries, they allege,
were part of an obsession
that left him with a vast collection of pornography depicting violence
against women and, in a few cases, images of children.
A
police task force investigating Wilberger's May 24 disappearance from a
Corvallis apartment complex was intrigued by Kim's links to the
apartments.
They suspected Kim of stealing panties and lint from a clothes drier in
the complex,
cyber-stalking
an OSU swimmer who resembled Wilberger and searching the Internet for
nations without extradition treaties with the United States.

オイオイ欠陥研究室か？→The virus has managed to move from a secured lab
environment to infect swine on farms in Korea.
This
has presented a significant health risk because the virus has become
widespread and has both reassorted and recombined with Korean avian
(H9N2) genes.
In addition to the health concerns, the mystery on
how the virus moved from a lab to many pigs on various farms in Korea
has not been addressed.
得意の火病→The WSN/33 could have infected the pigs (or birds which then
infected the pigs) via a civilian lab accident.
Alternatively, these sequences could represent a military experiment
that resulted in an unplanned release.
★Moreover, at this point bioterrorism cannot be ruled out.
However,
since at least six WSN/33 related sequences from swine are already
publicly available and these isolates contain informative markers,
an aggressive investigation should be able to determine the source of
the WSN/33 sequences in swine in Korea.

LOS ANGELES ?? Many Koreans serving prison terms in the United States
are expected to apply for transfer to Korea in August
when the Korean government ratifies an international treaty to accept
prisoners of Korean nationality from foreign countries.
Most
Korean prisoners will request transfer because the treaty contains
measures that make it easier for the transferred inmates to receive
parole or reduction of terms,
according to Korean American pastor Soo Min Lee, who has been
advocating for prison transfer for nine years.
"Because of their small physique, they easily become targets of sexual
assaults,
or errand boys for others' drug trafficking," he said.
"When they do not yield, they are beaten to death, literally beaten to
death," he said.
Aside from conflicts with other inmates, Lee said, "Koreans, many of
whom are recent immigrants,
have difficulty communicating in English. They also sorely miss eating
steamed rice and kimchi."
Problems with non-Asian inmates are so prevalent
that families of Korean prisoners in Men's Central Jail of Los Angeles
County Jail took action last year.
They protested the recent room assignments in which Koreans were mixed
with non-Asian inmates,
saying
that the Koreans were susceptible to victimization by non-Asians who
are physically stronger and belong to powerful cliques.
The
protesters demanded separate room assignments, citing an incident in
which an Asian was assaulted by a group of African Americans because he
was thought to be Korean.
But their demand has not been met, said Lee.

Families
of Korean inmates at the L.A. County Men’s Central Jail don't want
their family members to room with non-Asian prisoners.
After an Asian inmate was assaulted by a group of African Americans,
allegedly because he was thought to be Korean, family members are
concerned Korean inmates are being targeted.
Investigators at the Sheriff Department reportedly suspect that the
victim was mistaken for a Korean by the attackers.
Currently
about 7,000 inmates in jails are waiting for court sentencing
statewide. And Lee estimates that 300 to 400 Koreans are locked there.
キムチは恋しいし、英語では全くコミニュケーションが取れないﾆﾀﾞ！ もう駄目ぽﾆﾀﾞ！
Aside from conflicts with non-Asian inmates, most of the Koreans suffer
from cultural and language barriers, Lee said.
“They sorely miss steamed rice and kimchi,” he said. “Many of them have
difficulty communicating in English adequately.”

10% Koreans Married to Foreigners - But Not For Long
Some 10 percent of Koreans are married to foreigners. Often they are
men who marry women from developing countries.
Korean
men unwilling or unable to find spouses at home are increasingly
turning to life partners not only from among ethnic Koreans in China
but from Southeast Asian countries like Vietnam,
the Philippines,
Thailand and Cambodia and from Central Asian countries like Uzbekistan
and Kyrgyzstan. Often there is a commercial element to these unions.
Many such couples lead contented lives,
but many other marriages fail due to racial discrimination and
ill-treatment.
This
can be particularly damaging to women from Third World countries, who
have nowhere to turn to if they suffer violence from husbands or other
family members.
Those who escape to shelters run by private charities often bear scars
that will take a lifetime to heal.
One
woman at a shelter in Gyeonggi Province was paralyzed with fear when
her husband appeared a few hours after she telephoned him from a nearby
public telephone booth.
The husband had traced the number. Two other women fled the shelter
with their children because of the incident.
"Overall,
I think the proportion of problem families to ordinary families is 7:3.
But all cross-cultural families have problems,"
It is mostly the
Korean husbands who are responsible for the failure of such marriages,
according to experts. "Men are responsible 90 percent of the time. They
should help their foreign wives to adapt to life in Korea,” but they do
not.

government and individual levels after receiving $800 million in grants
and soft loans from Japan.
The administration used most of the grants for economic development,
failing to provide adequate compensation to victims.
N.Korea has executed 70 returned refugees

SEOUL, Feb 11 (Reuters) - North Korea has executed about 70 refugees
who were captured in China and sent home,
a South Korean group that helps North Korean refugees said on Friday,
citing informants in China. http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/SEO134363.htm
Despite the State Department's hapless carrot-and-stick approach
to North Korea,
the Kim Jong-il regime has adroitly manipulated the timing and pace of
the negotiations.
Yesterday's melodramatic announcement continues what has been its
regular pattern:

The
Koreans like to pretend to be Japanese, so that is another aspect that
sets the Korean massage parlor apart from Chinese or American massage
parlors.
Korean massage businesses may portray themselves as Japenese spas, and
may adorn the property with waterfalls and Zen gardens,
and wear the colorful embroidery of the Japanese traditions.
Sushi restaurants and bars are extremely popular in the Russian
capital, Moscow. However,
when people go to these eateries they may think that waiters in
Japanese restaurants have
nothing to do with Japan. As it turns out, waiters working in Moscow
sushi restaurants are
in fact Koreans posing as Japanese.
Russian on-line source, Regions.ru, informs with reference to reliable
sources that these
waiters are Koreans who work as Japanese in the Russian sushi bars.

SEATTLE, Washington, Nov 13 (AFP) - A US
restaurant that boasts a house special of sushi served on a naked woman
has sparked furious protests by Asian women's groups,
but eager diners are jostling for seats.
The
unconventional diner boasts a sushi buffet eaten off the torsos of
young female models who recline on a tall table surrounded by sprinkled
rose petals, votive candles,
and pots of wasabi, shoyu and pickled ginger.
But
while the novel serving suggestion from Bonzai Asian Pub and Bistro in
the northwestern US city of Seattle appears to have pleased male
gourmets, it has incensed women's groups.
Saturday
night at Bonzai in Pioneer Square, a nearly naked woman is laid out on
a table. A chef slices sushi behind her, to be arrayed on her torso,
bare except for a sheath of plastic wrap and some decorative flower
petals.
Hours earlier, across town on the campus of the University of
Washington, eight activists, mostly Asian-American women,
express outrage at what they call the prostitution of sushi and the
exploitation of women.

Bistro in Belltown
Naked sushi carries no connotation of exploitation in its native Japan,

Controversy over naked sushi in Seattle
Whatever
the case, the controversy over the Bonzai nightclub serving sushi on
nearly naked women isn't about to fade anytime soon.

Takashi Kadokura, senior economist at Tokyo's Dai-ichi Life Research
Institute Inc., estimated in a study that $5.5 billion
is sent annually through 【unofficial channels】 by illegal foreign
workers in Japan, primarily Chinese and Koreans.
Japan is the world's largest foreign aid donor after the United States
? 857.8 billion yen ($7.9 billion) in fiscal 2003.
This Japanese chick i've been seeing for a while broke out
this little gem and started crying last night, saying she doesn't
want to leave (this is in Australia, she goes back to Japan soon)
and stuff... Stayed at her apartment last night, bit awkward to
say the least...to me it was just a bit of fun and I thought she
felt the same...now I don't know wtf to do.
Normally it wouldn't be a problem, because she goes back to
Japan, except for the fact that I am going to Japan in May
this year... I don't want to hurt the girl cause i've had the same
shit happen to me before and know it sucks... I feel like it'd be
totally mean to just not see her again until she goes, but I have
NFI what else to do...

1. Kim Jong Il, North Korea. Age 63. In power since 1994. Last year’s
rank: 1.
All
the discussion about Kim’s development of nuclear weapons has deflected
attention from the fact that his government represses its own people
more completely than any other in the world.
Each year, the
human-rights group Freedom House ranks every country according to its
level of political rights and civil liberties. North Korea is the only
nation to earn the worst possible score for 31 straight years.
It also ranks in last place in the international index of press freedom
compiled by Reporters Without Borders.
An
estimated 150,000 Koreans perform forced labor in prison camps created
to punish alleged political dissidents, their family members and North
Koreans who fled to China but were forced back by the Chinese
government.
2. Than Shwe, Burma. Age 71. In power since 1992. Last year’s rank: 5.
3. Hu Jintao, China. Age 61. In power since 2002.
Hu
spent 38 years moving up the Communist Party hierarchy, proving himself
efficient and willing to do whatever was necessary to advance himself.
Now, as president and general secretary of the party, Hu is the leader
of an unusually repressive regime.
Apologists point to China's economic liberalization and say its
human-rights situation “is better than it used to be.”
