Parliament passes three Sewol bills

Three bills aimed at addressing issues surrounding the April 16 ferry disaster were passed at Friday’s plenary session of the National Assembly, concluding months of dispute.
The three bills ― the special Sewol bill and revisions to the Government Organization Act and the Act on Regulation of Punishment of Criminal Proceeds Concealment ― were passed, as agreed by the two main parties. Their passage had been held back a day due to friction over government restructuring at the parliamentary Security and Public Administration Committee.

(Yonhap)

The revised Government Organization Act is aimed at strengthening and streamlining the government’s response to disasters and safety issues by reorganizing related state agencies. The core of the revision is the establishment of a new ministry to oversee all safety and emergency functions of the government. The changes will also see a new deputy prime minister in charge of social issues taking office.
The special bill is aimed at shedding light on the developments that led to the accident, while the revision to the law on the proceeds of crime will give the authorities more power to confiscate unlawfully gained assets.
The special Sewol bill will enable the establishment of a committee and a special counsel investigation into the accident.
A dispute over when the revised Government Organization Act should take effect had cast doubt on the passage of the three bills, with the main opposition New Politics Alliance for Democracy demanding that it should be postponed until the 2015 budget review was complete.
However, in last-minute negotiations, the NPAD conceded to the ruling Saenuri Party in allowing the revised act to take effect Nov. 19, after the Cabinet approves its declaration Nov. 18.
The NPAD had argued that the changes should take effect after the budget review to avoid a situation in which various government organizations are restructured while the budgets allocated to them are still being analyzed.
However, the controversy surrounding the special Sewol bill continued to the last minute, with Saenuri Party Rep. Ha Tae-keung demanding that the bill be modified.
Citing the penalties for those who do not comply with the orders given by the committee in charge of the issue with regards to testifying, Ha said that the bill may be in violation of the Constitution. Ha also argued that the bill gives the committee, which will be comprised of civilians, more power than law enforcement authorities.
According to the special Sewol bill, reference witnesses who refuse to testify or appear for questioning can be punished by up to 30 million won ($27,000) a fine of or up to three years in jail.
In comparison, similar offenses in criminal court cases are publishable by fines of up to 5 million won.

1932: Lee Bong-chang, would-be Hirohito assassin

On this date in 1932, Korean nationalist Lee Bong-chang was hanged at Ichigaya Prison for attempting to assassinate Japanese Emperor Hirohito.



The would-be assassin under arrest.
Remembered now as a patriotic hero, Lee on January 9, 1932 chucked a grenade at an imperial procession in Japan as it passed the imperial palace’s Sakuradamon Gate — the aptly-named Sakuradamon Incident. Korea at that point had been directly ruled by Japan since 1910.*
Lee’s hand grenade targeted the wrong carriage, and didn’t even kill the occupants of that conveyance — it just injured a guard. A second grenade failed to explode altogether.
Three months after Lee’s attempt, another Korean, Yoon Bong-gil, also tried to murder Hirohito with a bomb. Both men are interred with garlands at Seoul’s Hyochang Park. A statue of our man Lee, poised with a grenade in hand, stands in the park.
* Newspapers in China — also under Japanese occupation — expressed regret that Lee’s attempt had missed its mark; this impolite language helped to catalyze a Japanese show of force later that month known as the January 28 Incident or the Shanghai Incident.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mr. Lee bongchang were known just as a killer to many people.
But His Purpose that kill the king of Japan is to have eternal joy in Asia throughout time to time

[From the Article in baegboemilji]

" My Age is now at 31,
  If the Purpose of life can say that having a delight,
  I've tasted enough about my delight of life.
  So I shall devote my whole life to the business of Independence
  that drives to the delight of Eternity.""

"I've planned for a journey for the delight of Eternity,
 Let's take a photo of us with full of joy."

"I also take a photo of remeberance with him."


Our Anchestor, Some people give their life to the Eternal value.
Some people can say to them "Why they do such a foolish thing?"
But the Person who was doing 'Such a foolish thing' can change the world and give the light to the our decendants.

IPYG and All Peacelovers.
Let's take a step for desire with this adulterious world and give a spiritual Independence!

Hong Kong protesters suggest talks with Beijing

HONG KONG (AP) ― Student democracy activists who have occupied Hong Kong streets for a month suggested Tuesday that direct negotiations with senior Chinese Communist Party officials could be a way to end their standoff with the local government.
The protest leaders said they want the Hong Kong government to convey their demands for greater democracy to Beijing. They issued an open letter to Hong Kong’s No. 2 official after the students and the government held talks last week that were mostly fruitless.

One of the student protest leaders, Alex Chow, said the Hong Kong government should ask Chinese Premier Li Keqiang “to have dialogue with the students and Hong Kong people directly, so that Hong Kong people and students can express their views.”
It’s unclear how the request would be received, given that Beijing officials have called the street protests illegal and repeatedly blamed unspecified foreign forces for instigating them.
The student leaders are struggling to maintain momentum after aborting a weekend street referendum intended to shore up support. Organizers said they scrapped the vote because they hadn’t adequately consulted with the public.
Protesters have been occupying main streets in three neighborhoods across Hong Kong since Sept. 28, when police unleashed tear gas in a failed attempt to disperse thousands of them trying to rally outside government headquarters.
Beijing has decreed that a committee will screen candidates for inaugural 2017 direct elections to choose the semiautonomous Chinese city’s leader, angering many who call it fake democracy. Protesters want Hong Kongers to be able to name candidates of their own choosing.
Protesters marked a full month of their movement with an evening rally that began with the unfurling of umbrellas and a moment of silence that lasted 87 seconds ― one for every canister of tear gas fired by police.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In these days,
Students also can show their requirements to their community and goverment.

Their Faith, What for?
They just require their right of vote and selecting candidate procedure,
But how about us?
We just worried about the living things only.

Peace is the absolute value that human being should acheive in this world.
all who longing for this wonderful Peace, Let's act and show our passion in the fields of our life.
This might be shown a short move, but can give a huge step to human nature.

Jihadists fight way into Syrian town

U.S., Saudi warplanes target 7 Islamic State sites around Kobane

MURSITPINAR, Turkey (AFP) ― Jihadists fought their way into central Kobane in heavy clashes with the Syrian border town’s Kurdish defenders Monday, ahead of a Washington meeting of the U.S.-led coalition against the Islamic State group.
The breakthrough saw IS claim half of Kobane, nearly a month after the Sunni extremists began their assault on the town on the Turkish frontier, despite more than three weeks of U.S.-led air strikes in Syria aimed at stopping them.
That failure will be among the main points up for discussion at Tuesday’s meeting in Washington of military chiefs from the 21 countries in the U.S.-led coalition, as will Turkey’s call for the establishment of a protective buffer zone.

In their latest air strikes, American and Saudi warplanes targeted seven sites around Kobane, the U.S. military said, including IS staging posts used to try to cut the town off from the outside world.
A Kobane politician who is now a refugee said IS fighters had surrounded Kobane to the south, east and west, and warned of a “massacre” if they take the northern front bordering Turkey.
“If they manage to take control of that area, they will close all access to the town and will begin a massacre,” Feyza Abdi said from Turkey.
“That is what they want, to completely enclose the town, cut off all contact with Turkey and engage in barbarism.”
Fighting spread to less than 1 kilometer from the barbed wire frontier fence, with the jihadists carrying out three suicide car bomb attacks in the border zone, said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
The Britain-based monitoring group later said IS had advanced into central Kobane, seizing a major building and squeezing the town’s Kurdish defenders into its northern half bordering Turkey.
With the jihadists advancing on its doorstep, NATO member Turkey has come under intense pressure to take action as part of the coalition that has been carrying out air strikes in both Syria and Iraq.
Ankara, which has called for a buffer zone to guard its border and provide some protection to fleeing Kurds, denied allowing the United States to use its bases against IS.
Pentagon chief Chuck Hagel had said the agreement to use Incirlik air base in southern Turkey included hosting training for Syrian rebels.
But the Turkish government vehemently denied it was allowing U.S. forces to carry out bombing raids from Incirlik.
“We are holding intense negotiations with our allies. But there are not any new developments about Incirlik,” Deputy Prime Minister Bulent Arinc said, after an official said the talks hinged on Turkey’s previously laid out conditions.
Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu on Sunday called for military backing for Syria’s “moderate opposition” to create a “third force” in the war-torn country to take on the Damascus regime as well as IS militants.
Kobane has become a highly visible symbol of resistance to IS and its fall would give the jihadists control of a long stretch of the Turkey-Syria border.
But concern has also been growing over Iraq, where IS fighters have been threatening to seize more territory.
Iraqi forces are reported to be under intensifying pressure in Anbar province between Baghdad and the Syrian border, where a roadside bomb killed the police chief on Sunday.
On Monday, security sources said Iraqi government troops stationed on the edge of the city of Heet in Anbar had withdrawn to another base, leaving the city under full jihadist control.
Pro-government forces have also been in trouble south of IS-held Mosul around Baiji oil refinery, where U.S. aircraft on Sunday for the first time dropped supplies including food, water and ammunition to Iraqi troops.
Washington has insisted it will not send ground troops back to Iraq, and Secretary of State John Kerry said in Cairo that the Iraqis themselves will have to succeed on the ground.
“Ultimately it is Iraqis who will have to take back Iraq. It is Iraqis in Anbar who will have to fight for Anbar,” he said on the weekend.
In violence in the Iraqi capital on Monday, three bombings within an hour rocked Shiite neighborhoods, leaving at least 22 dead.
IS is accused of committing widespread atrocities in areas under its control, including attacks on civilians, mass executions, beheadings and enslaving women.
In the latest issue of its propaganda magazine Dabiq, IS boasted of having revived slavery, giving Yazidi women and children captured in northern Iraq to its fighters as spoils of war.
“After capture, the Yazidi women and children were then divided according to the sharia amongst the fighters of the Islamic State,” the article said.
The group has also murdered four Western hostages seized in Syria in on-camera beheadings.
More than 180,000 people have been killed in Syria since an uprising against President Bashar al-Assad’s regime began in 2011, evolving into a several-sided civil war that has drawn thousands of jihadists from overseas.

Nobel Peace Prize: And the winner could be ...


Of all the prizes awarded during the Nobel week every October, none is more anticipated and talked about than the peace prize.
This year, the committee that picks the winner received 278 nominations, more than any other time in the past. And the buzz has steadily built leading to Friday's announcement. The smart money is on Pope Francis. His win would be historic -- he'd become the first Roman Catholic pontiff to win the peace prize. But the Nobel committee is notorious for making surprise choices. Think President Barack Obama's win the first year of his presidency.
Here are some of the most talked-about contenders for 2014. The winner could be someone from this group. Or it could go to someone we've completely overlooked.


1. POPE FRANCIS
Who he is: The first non-European pontiff in modern era

Why he could win: His empathy and compassion toward the disenfranchised has earned him fans worldwide. While his predecessors have reveled in the luxuries that come with the position, Francis, by contrast, has discarded a slew of things, including his bulletproof Popemobile, making him appear more relatable to the masses. The "rock star" Pope has shaken up the Vatican, redefined the papacy and breathed new life into the church.

2. BAN KI-MOON
Who he is: United Nations secretary-general

Why he could win: He's used his position as the world body's eighth chief to focus on climate change, pandemics, food security and other pressing global challenges. The South Korean native has said he grew up in war, and has remained determined to use his job to advance peace.

3. DENIS MUKWEGE
Who he is: A Congolese doctor

Why he could win: He's been something of a savior for victims of sexual violence in his native country. Mukwege has dedicated his life to providing a rare sanctuary for rape survivors in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. Many travel hundreds of miles to have their physical and psychological wounds healed by him. Rape is used as a weapon of war in the region, making his services crucial.

4. EDWARD SNOWDEN
Who he is: Former intelligence analyst

Why he could win: Some consider the former National Security Agency analyst a traitor for exposing just how far-reaching the U.S. government's global snooping really is. But others applaud his bravery for exposing stunning abuses by U.S. intelligence agencies.

5. JOSE MUJICA
Who he is: Uruguayan President

Why he could win: Often described as the world's poorest president, he donates 97% of his salary, drives a 1987 Volkswagen Beetle and sells flowers with his wife at their home. The former Marxist guerrilla lives in the same modest Montevideo house he always has, forgoing the presidential palace. He's legalized marijuana and same-sex marriages in the Roman Catholic nation.

6. MALALA YOUSAFZAI
Who she is: Pakistani teenager

Why she could win: She stared death in the face when Taliban gunmen shot her in the head in 2012, but she survived and became a symbol of triumph over adversity. The famous advocate for girls' education continues to fight for their right to go to school, putting her at odds with the Islamist militants.

7. NOVAYA GAZETA
What it is:  An independent Russian newspaper

Why it could win:  Despite the murder of some of its journalists, the newspaper continues to fearlessly criticize President Vladimir Putin and hold him accountable. With Russia mired in a conflict with Ukraine, this may be the only voice of reason in Moscow. And its winning would be a full-circle moment: Former President Mikhail Gorbachev used his Nobel Peace Prize money to start the newspaper in the 1990s.

8. JAPANESE PEOPLE WHO CONSERVE ARTICLE 9
What it is: A pacifist group

Why it could win: The diverse group is committed to fighting to preserve a constitutional clause that prohibits war. With the world embroiled in wars, such groups may be just what the world needs.

Going Home, Going to the end of the road of Peace



In the Deepest Night,  I cannot sleep at this beautiful night sometime.

I often open my dairy of my heart which had just  been written in the past

I laughed, I Cried, I had got troubled, Fallen in love...

Many things happened in the past of my life

When I was at the age of elementaty school, I was longing for going home.

My mother always prepare delicious meal for me and gives a mild smile to me.

I felt like resting in heaven when I come back from the school

Life was like a school, we cannot recognize the time that we come back

But the thing we can know is that our lifetime is like a journey we're taking a walk.

What is the final destination we're going?

At the end of the road of my life, I don't know what is waiting for me.

I didn't know whether is the right road or not.

If I reach the end of the road, Can I have a piece of smile?

Smile gives me a Peace upon my mind.

Which is the right way to the end of the road of peace?

Oh God, Let me drive into the sea of adventure about the road of peace till I found the ending point.

That time, You'll let me know the will of peace.
