McKinsey Warns Korea
McKinsey's Asia chairman said Wednesday the next three to five years would be decisive for Korea's development over the next 15-20 years. But he added current trends suggested the country "might be left out in the cold like the Philippines was during the 1970s."

what would a canadian know about 'uri' nara. McKinsey isn't even 'uri' company.
Foreign investment? 'uri' nara will surely become the hub of asia without the cooperation of alien peoples. Rolling Eyes

Really? And as if this is supposed to effect Americans, make them feel unwanted? What percentage of Americans actually come here compared to 300,000,000 back home? And who really knows that the factor of Korea's dis-America-attitude exists or matters at all?

Yet it makes me laugh, someone would post a sign like this, and think it'd be of great concern. I wonder if that the 2 mil Koreans in America giving up their Korean citizenship to become an American citizen aren't but shaking in their boots, crying to go home.

Not to mention the fact that the sign is 3 frickin years old!!!

Check the past date mark on your research finds RR.

Not to mention that the Philipines of the 70's were not even close to what Korea is today as far as economics or social development...hence, hardly a workable comparison.

who cares if they're the only thing keeping your mediocre cars on the road and actually give your farmers a fighting chance at survival...

Yes RR...I thought even you would get that one. Sadly, I was wrong.
