Another reportHowever, investigations regarding Japan's colonial rule of Korea will only be limited to independence movements by Koreans as Japan's atrocities during the period are to be dealt with by a different committee, established by a separate legislation enacted at the end of last year.
Then they passed the law on the next day (any time taken at all for discussions at the assembly?)Authorities can seize property amassed through collaboration and inherited by descendants of collaborators.
The fun about very flexible applications of this creative law could be the backfire factor (they will probably choose Japanese government somehow for demanding payback though.)The National Assembly on Thursday approved a special law that allows the government to confiscate personal assets of people believed to have collaborated with Japan during the Japanese colonial rule of Korea decades ago.

Japan's "Takeshima" Celebrations Anger Koreans名無し said:In other words they are defeating themselves by advertising the dispute to the world.
There was no war between Japan and Korea in the 20th century. Korea was annexed instead. The peninsula was not battlefield during WWII. Japan did not occupy Takeshima by force. What kind of fantasy story is this lawyer babbling about. No one takes the rest of whines seriously either.Japan's political leaders continue to pay homage to the shrine and the day when Dokdo was occupied by force as part of a war of invasion is being remembered.
Chosun IlboSix young Korean men in yellow vests on Tuesday afternoon gathered in front of the Stock Exchange in Brussels chanting, "No War, No Bush.ﾂ" They had spent 11 hours and 30 minutes on board a plane to make their point in protest against an international conference on North Korean human rights that started there the same day.
You are right: You should not over-generalise! But you do.osias said:No offence, but why is it that Koreans are so impolite to foreign nationals???Well, I shouldn't overgeneralize, but many non-Koreans find Koreans impolite and aggressive?? No manners?? Very insincere because they lie.

TOKYO — Four suspected pickpockets released a tear gas-like spray at a railway station in Tokyo on Thursday morning while trying to flee police, leaving about 20 injured, police and firefighters said. Police arrested one of the group, a man claiming to be a 38-year-old South Korean, on suspicion of causing injuries in using the spray on a platform at JR Nishi-Nippori Station in Arakawa Ward at 9:50 a.m., they said.
The man was carrying a kitchen knife, they said. The three other suspects remain at large.
Among the victims were two police officers who were seriously injured, the police said.
According to police and station workers, the two police officers first spotted the four near a ticket gate, judged them suspicious and questioned them. The four fled to the platform and the arrested suspect released the spray there, the police said.
On March 29, a group of four unidentified men allegedly used an unidentified spray on a man and his mother after a tussle in a subway station in Shinjuku, also in downtown Tokyo, and fled the scene.

Of course, there are SOME polite Koreans; but look what MANY do/did, they seem to be causing trouble wherever they go. Their racism also targets anybody Caucasian, African, Chinese, South East Asian, etc.bossel said:You are right: You should not over-generalise! But you do.
The Koreans I met (only few in number, admittedly) were actually quite polite.

I got ripped off at a store when I travelled Korea, which is how the locals show their hospitality to a foreign tourist. A guide (an overseas Chinese in Korea) said that they charge you an unreasonable price if you are a Japanese. So I think they are pretty dishonest. To them, the Japanese=Money!! (But in some other countries, like China, Taiwan, or HK,they also cheat you on the price if you are a Japanese, because the Japanese are dupes?? Maybe. Sure.)
Although there are nice Koreans too, I don't get a good impression from this country as a whole.

Police: Suspect In Fatal Hit-And-Run Accident Flew To Korea.
LOS ANGELES -- Parents of a victim in a hit-and-run accident have learned the identity of the suspected driver, but there is a hitch.
Police say that suspect was driven to the airport after the crash and flew to Korea.
Carlton Cook and his wife say they read the report over and over trying to make sense of it. What became clear, they say, is that the man accused of killing their son Ryan Dallas Cook is gone.
"It was just complete shock to get this information and have paint such a vivid picture of what happened in this situation," said father Carlton Cook.
According to the report, 39-year-old Youn Bum Lee was with some business associates at Seoul-Oak Korean B.B.Q. restaurant where witnesses say he drank eight shots of Soju --a Korean rice wine.
The report says the group went to a Karaoke bar until just before midnight.
Then half an hour later a UPS driver spotted a black Hyundai drifting into the HOV lane, as if someone had passed out and hit the center divider.
Minutes after that Ryan Cook -- a trombone player with the band Suburban Legends -- was riding his motorcycle home from band practice. Investigators say he never saw the parked car with its lights out. Cook died at the scene.
"After the traffic collision, Mr. Lee contacted one of the witnesses and drove the vehicle back to the corporation where he met with one of the witnesses and then he left the country through LAX," said Jennifer Hink with the California Highway Patrol.
The report says Lee, who NBC4 reports works for Hyundai, showed his damaged car to a Hyundai executive who then drove him to an attorney's office. It says Lee got in a taxi then boarded a plane to Korea.
"What kind of a man is he who doesn't stand up for what he did. He made a mistake and he was too cowardly to stick around and own up to his own mistakes," said Janet Cook.
A Hyundai spokesperson said in a statement that, "We agree this was a horrible and tragic accident. Hyundai Corperation is cooperating fully with the CHP and any further questions can be directed to them."
Lee is facing charges of vehicular manslaughter, felony hit-and-run and driving under the influence

Sorry, but it's a quite crappy tactic to take some individual cases & then say (many/most) Koreans are like that. Do you have any valid statistics to prove your point?Hiroyuki Nagashima said:I agree, too.
