I am dissatisfied with the Korean government. When I see what the Korean government is doing, I feel like they can not find a clue to a problem that can be solved easily.
1. Japan has listed on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs homepage an ineffectual claim that Dokdo is Japanese territory and that the Sea of Japan is correct name, not the East Sea. But Korea is taking a passive approach to this problem. Isn't it because Japan's claim is right? Nope. (1)dokdohistory.com/kor/gnb04/sub01.do?mode=view&page=2&cid=41049 (2)dokdohistory.com/kor/gnb04/sub01_01.do?mode=view&page=&cid=41050&sf_cat1=CWS1009 There are a lot of reasons why Japan's claim is wrong, as can be seen from the two links above. Nevertheless, there is no mention of this on the website on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Korea.
2. The problem of low fertility in Korea is very serious. Now, on average, an era has come, with less than one child per woman. The solution is simple. Reduce the debt of the couple. And most of the debt is borrowed from school loans, they have to change the culture of our country that people must go to university. This fact is obvious and many people admit it, but the government have not noticed it for years and is still the same.
3. The income gap has widened to an all-time high, I think it's because there are so many unemployed people. Then we should reduce the number of unemployed, and it has a simple solution. We need to ease the burden on the self-employed and small businesses. It's high rent to bully the self-employed, and it's the big business that bothers the small business. Despite the social structure is clear, the government has suddenly increased the minimum wage sharply, resulting in many people being unemployed.
How would you feel if this is the government of your country? I believe you know how I feel though I don't say. Is the government of your country incompetent too? If it is, let me know a case.
I had read this 1 week before.The link I showed you is the data that refutes the logic of Japan which is on the homepage of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan. That's why I tell you to read it.

Unless there's oil or some important cultural importance on that rock just give Dokdo to Japan or make it neutral territory.
Also in regards to the name of the sea does it really matter if it's named the Sea of Japan whether they own/claim it or not?

There is no oil, but it is known to be rich in minerals and energy.
Nicholas Miller
The territorial issue should be settled at ICJ. Think about why your government is rejecting the idea.
Bentley Lee
>muh east sea i fucking hate this meme and retards who actually fall into this shit
Connor Ramirez
do not know about the international community. Is the ICJ referring to the International Court of Justice? If so, our government rejects it as follows: Putting judgment on the matter at the International Court of Justice is like saying that Dokdo is unclear as to which territory it is.
Connor Butler
Why can't you guys just make it Neutral Territory? It's not like it's the West Bank or some important thing like that.
>low fertility Low fertility rates is not entirely a financial issue. It is natural for people in any developed country/society to prefer to have fewer children so that they can allocate their limited resources to make their offspring more capable and productive. There are very few developed countries whose fertility rate is over 2.0.
Carson Lopez
But, we are under 1.0!!!
Parker Murphy
This.
In here I know some couples that are multimillionaires and are making a six-figure salary, most of them have maybe three kids at the most. The reason for that is people simply don't want as many or any children.
Christian Martinez
Why would they comply? Win or lose, Korea would've wasted court fees for a island you guys would have to declare war to invade and possess, something Japan would never do. The ICJ is a joke and its outcomes are never respected.
Who possessed land in the past doesn't matter for shit. It belongs to the country that has military control over the land. It's Korea's because they have army personnel stationed there. It's only an issue because politicians from both countries use it to milk votes out of dumbshits like you.
Owen Morales
There's no point in complaining about what your government does. They make policies for a certain group of people, and you don't belong to the group. If you are young, leave the country. Don't wait for your government to do what you'd like them to do.
Dominic Edwards
I am sorry about the current relationship between Korea and Japan. Until the beginning of the Joseon Dynasty (1500), the two countries were very friendly.
Carter Scott
>The ICJ is a joke and its outcomes are never respected. Any example of that? My understanding is that if two nations agree to settle a matter at ICJ, they have legal obligation to comply to the outcome.
Adam Howard
What do you think I go to your country?
Carter Cook

There's no enforcement. Ways a nation could get punished for rejecting the court's decision is through economic sanctions or military intervention. Since Korea is closely allied with powerful countries and is a trade powerhouse no country including Japan would want to cut trade with Korea for some dumb island. Most that would happen is Japan strongly protests, Korea keeps its soldiers on and nothing happens.
Wyatt Sullivan
How fuck you are!! you will be killed by hate-Korea terror!!
Jacob Kelly
possible. a lot of Koreans do that. some of them are making good money and others are making very little. So basically you won't be escaping from the income gap that you hate at your home country.

I meant an example of territorial issue that was brought to the ICJ and its outcome was not respected. >There's no enforcement That's also different from my understanding. >If any party to a case fails to perform the obligations incumbent upon it under a judgment rendered by the Court, the other party may have recourse to the Security Council, which may, if it deems necessary, make recommendations or decide upon measures to be taken to give effect to the judgment.
Joshua Robinson
>an example of territorial issue that was brought to the ICJ and its outcome was not respected en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_International_Court_of_Justice_cases Most if not all of them. The only countries forced to comply are weaker countries without much trade partners/millitary power.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whaling_in_Japan#ICJ_case is one that isn't a territorial dispute but involves Japan. The judge ordered Japan to stop all whaling activities. Japan refused, and suffered zero consequences as Australia and the rest of the world weren't going to invade Japan or stop trade with them because of a few whales. Your island dispute will end exactly the same.
Carter Gomez
Do not worry, my friend. Since public criticism is getting stronger, the government is going to find the answer... :(
Christian White
Takeshima is rightful Croatian clay so fuck off gooks
>The only countries forced to comply are weaker countries without much trade partners/millitary power. That's not my understanding, because weaker countries have the choice of taking the case to the ICJ. >Only states have standing to bring a compulsory claim against another state, and then only with the consent of the responding state.
>The judge ordered Japan to stop all whaling activities That's different from my understanding. >In March 2014, Australia won its case against Japan’s Antarctic whaling in the International Court of Justice (ICJ). However, that case was about Japan’s Antarctic whaling program underway at that time, called JARPA II. The international court declared it illegal and told Japan not to issue any more permits under that program, which was why there was no Antarctic whaling last year.
But the case was specific only to that whaling program. The Court could only end that Japanese whaling program and could not prevent Japan concocting another ‘scientific’ whaling plan, as the whaling convention does still allow for scientific whaling.
James Ross
whats the point of me replying if you respond to every fact with "thats not my understanding"? What right does Japan have in forcing Korea to go to the ICJ when they themselves ignored the one and only ICJ ruling against Japan and continue to kill whales for food? The ICJ is retarded and nothing more than a political tool.
Julian Sanders
>fact they are facts. your understanding of how ICJ works, lack of knowledge of the territorial dispute between Japan and Korea, and misinterpretation of ICJ ruling on Japan's whaling. >kill whales for food That is different from understanding, but I am sure you don't care.
Adrian Martin
*they are NOT facts
William Cox
>The Court ordered that "Japan revoke any extant authorization, permit or licence to kill, take or treat whales" and refrain from granting any further permits The court ordered an outright ban on the hunting of whales. The media here reports on this shit every month. Japan has ro respect for ICJ rulings like every other nation in the world. You're delusional if you think Korea would give up their island that easily.
Adam Sullivan
You didn't read my post to the end. The last two lines was supposed to be green-texed. "the case was specific only to that whaling program."
>You're delusional if you think Korea would give up their island that easily. Where did I say that? I'm simply stating that there're reasons why the Korean government is not taking the issue to Hague. And those reasons are not Korea and Japan are big trade partners for one another. There was a secret agreement between these two nations in 1965 on the territorial dispute. Korea was the one to broke the agreement.

Now i realized, i don’t know how to go back to my guest house. I just stood in the bus stop hoping someone would come whom i can ask as it has always been. Have had people help me before in metro even though language is a barrier somehow both parties will be able to convey. :-)
This time an old couple came to the bus stand. I was standing and was bit hesitant to ask them as they were looking at me strangely. Obviously because of my indian look. Finally i thought, what is the big deal, let me approach them. Just as i started to take steps in their direction, they started talking hurriedly among themselves constantly looking at me. i thought maybe they are discussing something and proceeded further. The next thing that happened really surprised me.
They took off in an instant and ran away, crossed the road and out of sight in a minute. Somehow i felt very bad that just by looks they are judging people, as if i am trying to attack them or as if i am a terrorist. But i try to ignore this thought thinking that they were old people and their point of view would be different.
I have had very pleasant experience in korea with occasional experiences like these. Even though i try not to remember such memories stay forever. Just gives a hint how much people facing constant racial abuse should be going through
You're retarded. Agreements don't matter if they cannot be reinforced. All Korea would do is reject the ICJ decision and there is absolutely nothing that can be done about it.

I'm not discussing what Korea would react to the ICJ decision. You keep on missing the points I'm trying to make and I think that you are doing so intentionally. It seems that you've already decided that the ICJ is stupid and there's nothing to change that.
SK president Lee who killed over 1,000,000 innocent korean people took over Japanese island Takeshima. And the survivors in the genocides fled to Japan. And SK government keep refusing those korean refugees back into South Korea. Because its government stated those refugee are not innocent. So if South korea admit "Takeshima is Japanese", they have to reveal their extremely savage war crime. thats it. and also Doggo is korean food.

Dokdo is American territory
We should just annex Dokdo, Ryukyus, Jeju and Tsushima and make it a waifu breeding farm/colony

Sorry kim. but what I wrote is a crystal clear truth. and thats why SK keep anti-japping.
Landon Rogers
Making territory neutral only works if both sides agree that it is in their interests. If one or the other or both continue to press their claim, then neutrality is pointless.
Come here, Koreaman. You will be among your fellows who also couldn't make it back home.
