Its nice to see her making a sincere effort. She's strong enough to make this work. I hope North Korea takes the offer seriously.

The North will probably accept the aid as long as the South meets certain conditions. Laughing

The Norks have been insulting her ever since she got into office. Confucian dinosaurs don't like women in power.


They'll probably view this as a reward for their intimidation.

Confucian dinosaurs, I like it. I just wish the newborn dinosaurs would go extinct.

If they agree to something, I could see them saying no big chaebol can do any development work there.

Just like the proud daughter of a "strongman" Park Chung-hee. Park Chung-hee was a member of the Communist Workers' Party of South Korea (officially existed from 1946 until 1949).

Not enough money for native teachers in public schools. We'll have to cut some. >_<

This is true. He will have to be removed by force. But nobody, including the south, really cares. Human rights violations are only cared about unless it rocks the boat. And the south does not want to take in all those people. I'm not excluding myself, by the way, when it comes to the inconvenience of trying to help somebody when there are personal stakes. I'm guilty.

I spoke with a Korean who thinks it may be time to just evacuate Seoul and Kyonggi Do and finish this. South Koreans are good at rebuilding.
