What do you expect them to do? Prop up banks that are hemmoraging money because of their bad decisions?
Anyways, this isn't meant to be offensive, but English is not your first language? |
Offensive. This is the fourth time already. Both Korean and English. But English first. But I wouldn't say I have a mother tongue. |

Funny thing. Since Tuesday, I thought a big cash withdrawals bank run was occurring right about now, but didn't see this thread until today. I noticed my local NH branch being exceptionally busy this week since Monday where you have to wait an hour or longer. Hopefully NH is one of the safe big 5 receiving new deposits to keep stocked up on cash, but I wouldn't be surprised if Koreans are stacking cash at home as their savings plan.  |

He has guided SK quite well past the financial crisis. I do admit his social policies have little to be desired, but economically he's on the ball. |
You mean the 4 Grand Rivers project that killed the environment and the agricultural foundations? His policies jacked up the food and gas price. He's also responsible for killing the public school education and turned EPIK upside down.
He didn't do anything. It was the big companies who maintained this country's economy and he got the wrongful praises. Remember, his support groups are not the voters of this country but from big businesses. This is why he can only maintain himself as an empty figurehead of the economic recovery.
Do you know why over half of the population hates him? Even the right-wing Chosun-Ilbo who supports him now turns its back against him? http://www.mediatoday.co.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=93929
One more thing: My dad (middle age divorcee and still a Korean citizen) and my grandparents regret voting for Lee Myeong Bak as his policies put the senior health safety-net into risk. |
