Was wondering is Morning Glory a Korean company?
Was in Australia recently, went into a few stores and saw that in each case the person working behind the counter was Korean
They are also opening stores in the US, wondering if it's the same there.
Don't want to jump up and down shouting racism, but if it's a Korean company and their overseas outlets are staffed by Koreans , then I wouldn't be suprised.
Anyone else out there who might have more info? |

Morning Glory is a Korean company. What's wrong with Koreans overseas dealing with Morning Glory stuff? I don't get what you are trying to say here. Could you elaborate a bit? |

Yes - Morning Glory is the Korean company that deals in "stationery" products....
On my last visit to Australia I was shocked at basically how almost every second shop was owned and operated by Asian people.....
The restaurants, souveneir shops, jewellery shops, clothing shops, everything was owned and operated by asian people...
The taxi drivers were all African (Nigerian) or Arabian.....
(NOT that theres anything wrong with that)....
I guess Australians are a bit lazy - and look down upon being a shopkeeper and taxi driver as a "low-class job" so Australians only prefer to have office jobs or mining jobs - as they pay the big dollars....
But yeah... I see Nexon is already trying to take over the "Office systems" there and Japan owns half of Sydney and the Gold Coast....
most australians with a university degree leave asutralia.... which has left australia to be taken over by other countries I guess....
the other funny thing I noticed - is almost every street corner had a "Sushi bar" - selling kimbap of course... thought it must be the new "australian" health conscious diet - good on them - because there were so many fat people there...
but Koreans do take offence to this - when they visit Australia - want to eat kimbap - and see it sold everywhere under the title "sushi" |
