Japan's Re-examination of apology
The decision by Japan to re-examine the apology it made to women who were forced to work in the Japanese military comfort zones in World War II could further upset South Korea and the former "comfort women" across Korea, on the Chinese Mainland, in Taiwan, Hong Kong and the Philippines.

Reunification - jackpot or bonanza?
It is impossible to achieve reunification unless the two Koreas can first end the Korean War which remains at a ceasefire and has done so since 1953. That is the prerequisite to make any improvement between the two Koreas. Can Ban Ki-moon help end the Korean War, which has continued for 64 years?

Understanding plight of defectors
Recently, I read a column entitled "Let's embrace North Korean defectors,’’ written by The Korea Times Executive Managing Director Lee Chang-sup. I couldn't agree with him more, especially about his conclusion in the article which, in brief, reads, "We South Koreans need to understand defectors' plights in order to establish a harmonious society."

Bright future for Myanmar
Recently I have been in the habit of looking closely at articles on Myanmar. According to these, the country is eager to open to foreign countries, such as holding international sports events and hosting meetings.

Pakistan shares non-proliferation objectives of international community
Pakistan shares non-proliferation objectives of international community
This is with reference to the story headlined “South Korea, India to share intel on North Korea, Pakistan” carried in the Jan. 17 edition of The Korea Times.
