1 Yunseong Choi 2 Shanghai Disneyland projects break ground at last; Shanghai government officials and executives from Walt Disney have broken ground on mainland China's first Disneyland amusement park. 3 China has been growing in diverse paths since few decades ago. With large land and population, this country has made its way of being one of the powerful countries in the world. With this new project being formed, I believed that in the future, China will gain enormous amount of benefits. First, by having millions of tourists in the country, their financial income will be unimaginable. If we just think about G20 summit that was held in Korea. Korea had their visitors to spend millions of dollars. Then, China will have growth in their brand image. Although some analysts are ambivalent that this new project will bring good to China, I strongly believe that the country can definitely have strong impact. Along with other tourist attractions, the new Disneyland will become one of the most wanted place to be. ---------------------------------- The chief executive of Walt Disney Co, Bob Iger, and Shanghai Communist Party Secretary Yu Zhengsheng led a ceremony featuring Mickey and Minnie Mouse in traditional Chinese dress.
"Our Shanghai resort will be a world-class family vacation destination that combines classic Disney characters and storytelling with the uniqueness and beauty of China," Mr Iger said.
The Shanghai city government retains a majority interest in the project, with Disney holding 43%.
Recently, Because of catastrophe occured at Japan I think many people come to have anxiety about their own secure. and Medias like TV, Internet, etc make people can't help having anxiety. so Demand in like diaster supplies kit will increase. -----------------------------------------------
Not everyone seems unhappy with the ongoing nuclear catastrophe in Japan also feared to affect Korea, as vendors here take advantage of people’s worries on radioactive material to sell more products. -----------------------------------------------
2. Poor people getting poorer while rich people getting richer.
3. The gap between the rich and the poor is getting greater these days. Like this tendency, we will have too big rich-poor gap next year. It will make some serious problems so before that, we need to prevent it. One of the reasons why the gap is appear is that there is distinction about education between the poor and the rich. Also, according to education, poor people will have lack of skills for managing their money which can be the reason of this kind of gap. Family's condition and property can easily affects to the gap which we cannot change. Because of these unchangeable facts, we need redistribution of wealth through tax, insurance, and so on.
4.The economic downturn has increased the Gini coefficient, a key index on wealth disparity between the rich and the poor, to the highest level so far here.
According to the National Statistical Office (NSO) Thursday, the Gini coefficient for urban households came to 0.325 in 2008, up from 0.324 the previous year. It was the largest ever since the statistical office began compiling related data in 1990.
The Gini coefficient measures the wealth distribution by looking at levels of salaries and financial and other assets among households. The coefficient ranges from zero to one and the closer it gets to one, the wider the income gap is. (the rest omitted)
3. There’s a strong possibility that thesedays Japanese depression will continue. Because, the earth quake damaged district's car, and electronic components production ratio is huge. So, because of damaged atomic plant, lower power production will shut down manufacturing plant for a long time. Both decreased demand and decreased production will maintain Japanese deplation. ----- 이미 일본 경제 회복이 고베 대지진 때보다 더딜 것이라는 관측이 앞 다퉈 나오고 있다. 피해지역이 넓은 데다 전력 공급 불안이 겹치고 있어서다. 이번 지진 최대 피해지역인 4개 현이 일본 전체에서 차지하는 경제 비중은 6.2%에 불과하지만 자동차·반도체·전자부품산업에서 차지하는 비중은 상당하다. 전력수급 차질은 전력 집약산업인 자동차·반도체 등의 생산 중단을 장기화할 수 있다.

In Phoenix, they started to paint their dead grass with green paint. This kind of trend goes along with our lives today by pretending to be seen alive. However this trend (superficial and also artificial) won't be a fundamental solution for the future problems and won't help our future either.
Anyways, since we care more about the looking and appearance, in the future, we are going to have more artificial materials (which are dead inside and their outsides are alive) in our lives than now-world.

Spraying to Make Yards Green ... but With Paint, Not Water
PHOENIX — There used to be two kinds of homeowners in this scorching city, those with dazzling green lawns irrigated by sprinklers and those with more natural backyard expanses of rocks, cactuses and desert flora, which required no watering at all. Now, though, the grass may be greener next door simply because of a fresh coast of paint.
2 Student of KAIST commited suicide and why suicide rate in Korea is high?
3 Three students of KAIST committed suicide for the past 3 months. And another student even killed oneself. Why did this incident happen? Many people insist that infinite competition rules cause these situations. Competitions lay pressures on people who participate the game. And the pressures make them crazy person who is chased for someone or something. In this situation, anyone can’t understand and communicate other persons, even can’t listen to someone’s voice. Most of the KAIST students agree this insistence. Of course, they think that the completion is necessary for their growth. But pretty harsh competitions deprive them of their freedom. So, students argue that they want to regain their freedoms which can make them have a dream. Now this is the time that we must rethink our social competitive systems throughout our daily life. Even now our community forces the student to compete with other students who is the friend to him or her. And this trend makes suicide rate high because there are nobody who try to listen to own feelings, worries and private things. If these competitions continue for the future, we can’t clear ourselves of the charge of the first nation among all OECD countries about high suicide rate. Maybe the suicide rate will increase than now. We have to think again Korean students’ situation through the suicide of KAIST student. And we should prepare measures that can stop suicide
연일 카이스트가 논란이 되고 있다. 석 달간 세 명의 학생이 자살한 것에 이어 7일 또다른 학생이 아파트에서 투신 자살을 했다. 하지만 학교에서는 이렇다 할 보완책을 마련하지 못하는 실정이다. _______________________________________________
2.If the educational system of Korea doesn’t change, the social problems are going to be increase.
3.One of the students in Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) suicide in last month. Actually this is not the first time that KAIST student had suicide and now this incident is on the top of the issue in the society. There are serious problem in Korean educational system. KAIST offers to students 100 percent of school tuition. However, any students who got the grade lower than C should pay extra tuition fee as a penalty. This incident is just one of the problems. There are lots of educational problems. School pressure students too much. If these kinds of problems doesn’t solved, then there are going to be serious social problems in the society.
