1.Hong Eun Sook 2.Scholars call for easing non-economic regulations 3.Tne term of 'Green Growth' sounds good. It seems to be possible we can have our cake and eat it at the same time. And I wonder if president Lee really considers green. I think green and growh can't exist at the same time. Because when we follow economic growh, we are filled with selfishness. Many of Lee's symbolic policies are supported by economic sense. I think many ordinary people know that it isn't really for environment, but they want to hide the truth for their unrealized interests. ---------------------------------------- Public administration experts urged the Lee administration to shed light on "regulatory reforms" that are non-economic issues, Thursday.
Scholars gathered in Seoul for a seminar shared the view that the reforms geared toward creating jobs, preventing disasters and stimulating "green growth" should be dealt with as priorities.
The seminar was jointly organized by the Korea Institute of Public Administration and the Korea Society for Regulatory Studies.
The seminar offered a clear indication that the Korean economy is well on the road to recovery.
The Lee Myung-bak administration has made deregulation and regulatory reform related to the economy its main aim from the outset.
Attracting overseas capital was clearly the goal of the country's top executive.
In part, Lee has witnessed a significant increase in the amount of foreign investment into Korea. However, the ruling sentiment in the foreign business community is that a wall of regulations exists, obstructing foreign companies doing business in Korea.
Climate change was another major issue. Lee announced his proud "green growth" slogan. Yet, as Kim Jeong-hae, a researcher at the institute criticized, regulations aren't balanced in stimulating economic growth rates and protecting the environment.
"Marking a fine balance between economic development and protecting the environment is very important," she said. ------------ http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/nation/2010/05/116_66250.html
1.Lee, sung-Hee 2.President Lee’s environmental lesson. 3.President Lee's the Four Major Rivers Restoration Project is main issues of 6.2 local elections. How the nations think about this project will be result of 6.2 local elections. Environmental sound and sustainable society is duty and responsibility of all people which live in the present age. The government must pay attention to the opinions of the people. President Lee must show real courage for nations and future generations. ------------------- President Lee Myung-bak rides in his Robo destroyer and along with his henchmen, destroys nature including organic farming areas and wetlands. Given his remarks, however, it appears that he is destroying the environment to teach a lesson on environmental preservation.
President Lee says, “We realize the value of the environment after it has been destroyed, don’t we?”
The Lee Myung-bak administration has come under fire for the Four Major Rivers Restoration Project, which has been protested by environmental groups and recently by groups of religious leaders for its threat to the environment.
A very down to earth* kind of guy. I'm an environmental sociologist interested in establishing material and organizational sustainability worldwide. I'm always looking for interesting materials/technologies, inspiring ideas, or institutional examples of sustainability to inspire others to recognize their choices now. To be fatalistic about an unsustainable world is a sign of a captive mind, given all our options.
*(If "earth" is defined in a planetary sense, concerning comparative historical knowledge and interest in the past 10,000 years or so anywhere...) See both blogs.
