Editorial/Column: Rotten to the Core?
Corruption and other irregularities are of course nothing new, and it's not exclusively the fault of the president and members of the National Assembly. The reality is that everything from the central government to regional ones, and the private sector, such as between corporate purchasing and subcontractors, are involved. And the food chain of corruption goes on and on. According to a recent survey, as many as 90 percent of Korea's youth think they live in a country that's corrupt, and a considerable number of them say they're ready to join the club if the occasions calls for it later in life.
