LATEST EVENTS ON PENINSULA MAKING GLOBAL HEADLINES
한 주간 외신 속 한반도
Welcome to Wednesday’s edition of Issues and Insiders.
I’m Min Sunhee.
Today we touch upon tensions on the peninsula amid fresh missile test-launches by North Korea and more.
For more I have Jack Barton live on the line.
Jack it’s good to have you on.
I also have Nicola Smith with us.
Nicola welcome back.
1) Jack, let’s begin with details about Pyongyang’s latest provocations and their apparent purpose.
2) Nicola, Pyongyang’s latest missile launches come in response to plans by Seoul and Washington to enhance their nuclear contingency strategies and include nuclear operation scenarios in their defense drills next year.
Could you tell us a bit about these plans?
3) Jack, a missile-warning system shared by Seoul, Tokyo and Washington went into effect yesterday, that is Tuesday.
What is the relevance of this trilateral collaboration?
4) Nicola, North Korea, for its part, is believed to be building an early-warning radar plane.
What are the implications of this initiative?
5) Jack, here in South Korea, the Defense Ministry has spoken of boosting related spending over the next five years.
What more can you share with us?
6) Nicola, staying in South Korea, but moving away from cross-border tensions, let’s now talk about some domestic headlines.
First then, on the economic front, the IMF says the Korean economy has remained resilient in the face of challenges at home and abroad.
Speaking within your capacity as an Asia correspondent covering various regional events, what do you suppose has kept the local economy afloat this year?
7) Jack, beyond its economic agenda, the Yoon administration has also sought to address a host of issues within its academic arena .
Which related initiative do you care to shed light on as we look to end this year?
8) Nicola, also on the social front.
Findings shared this past Monday by Statistics Korea show close to three out of every 10 newlyweds in Korea chose to pursue a double income no kids lifestyle.
Now these findings have raised fresh alarm over Korea’s population prospects.
Do you believe this alarm well founded?
9) Jack, I understand this is the million-dollar question and that you are no expert on the matter, but what other measures may serve to boost birth rates here?
All right.
