I skimmed through it. I didn't understand the purpose. In fairness, I only spent about 2 minutes looking through it. The format is enough to piss me off. There is an interesting part about "Together Day" which is supposedly being implemented on May 20. What that will be about is beyond me. It came with the embassy newsletter.

Also just briefly skimmed it. It's full of useless jargon. It reads like a prototypical American politician's speech. Ahhh EMPTY!

It sort of reminds me of something like a sexual harrassment pamphlet that a boss would have to hand out to his/her employees in the work force. But in this case it's to remind Korean employees that foreigners are people too.

Couldn't it have been put in a block format of some sort so that people could actually read that thing?
