I know a couple people here have been wondering if Lee Myung-Bak was going to fulfill his campaign promise to donate his entitre personal savings to charity.
Apparently he has done just that today, creating a scholarship fund for students from low-income families:

Wait, wait. Where's that guy who shows up every couple months to complain about how 2MB is a liar and isn't donating his pay? |

the fund will be titled the Lee & Kim Foundation in English |
Surely they could have done better than that. It's only named after 40odd percent of the population. |

I was just trying to recall his name.
No doubt, he'll be silent on this issue. |
