It's Official: the Government's Reforms Have Failed
The Geneva-based World Economic Forum on Tuesday said South Korea's international competitiveness ranking fell five notches to 24th this year, from last year's 19th.
The country's standing in labor relations slipped from 81st to 114th, and government deregulation plummeted from 14th to 50th.
In quality of education, South Korea fell from 31st to 38th.

My time teaching in Korea amounted to about 80% of this administrations total time in office and during this time, it was painfully obvious that alot of their policies seemed more "short-term" fixes than long-term solutions.

This is what you get when you elect a clown whose only platform was to rid Korea of its "foreign" influence, hence the seemingly hasty exit of US forces from the peninsula......

Comes to show you, it is better not to vote on "emotional" issues rather than "logical" ones, such as the economy, employment- which is something that Korea is lacking much of now.....
