President Yoon Urges Korean Society to Embrace Foreigners to Address Labor Shortage
|South Korea best be careful on what foreigners it embraces. It needs foreigners that learn to speak Korean and understands Korean culture and history. If not the country could become less Korean and look more like this and this:
President Yoon Suk Yeol said Thursday that local governments’ cooperation with the state was crucial in encouraging foreign residents to settle here to address the population crisis in South Korea.
At a meeting held in Hongseong-gun, South Chungcheong Province, Yoon, who presided over a meeting with heads of the autonomous governments, said the central and local governments should take preemptive actions to support foreign nationals to settle and work in Korean society, as the country faces a growing shortage in its working-age population.
“We must take preemptive action on the labor shortage in the wake of the fast aging of the population coupled with the low birth rate,” Yoon said before some 100 participants. “The low birth rate issue and the foreign worker issue must be seriously addressed through the collaboration of central and local governments.”

NO NO NO NO. A completely wrong headed idea. If you need to know why, look at western Europe.
I am guessing the WEF has pictures of somebody with a child.
That’s it, doesn’t this prove Yoon is another example of an evil Globalist? Your beloved US lackey Yoon. This is the same guy who wanted to bring in cheap labor from the Philippines as nannies and pay them below the minimum wage. That was stopped by the leftist commies who foolishly argued that that would be an unacceptable human rights violation, to pay foreign workers below minimum wage.
진짜로?
In Korea’s Neo-Confucian system the hierarchy is entrenched as follows:
남자는 하늘 여자는 땅
한국인 하늘 와국인 땅.
As a former prosecutor, Yoon is well aware that in any legal dispute the Korean plaintiff will prevail over the non-Korean defendant 99.99% of the time.
1. Korea’s “population crisis” is like the global warming crisis, monkeypox, murder hornets, etc. Anybody pushing this is sus.
2. Korea doesn’t need to be bringing in foreigners… and especially low-quality foreigners to do low quality jobs.
Yoon is suspiciously looking globalist rather than Korean.
Here is some good advice, Yoon:
“If we would have known it would be this much trouble, we’d have picked our own damn cotton.”
This goes double for Muslims, which have a good track record of disruption everywhere they have infested.
And how do you rate yourself?
CH, chinabot keeps trying to date you…
Ha!
I rate far above median in terms of productivity and contribution to the betterment of society.
My small team brings millions of dollars per year into the Korean economy. (And if you are into such nonsense, we also reduce global carbon emission.) This is not my project but I am necessary for its success and there are few people who can contribute what I do officially. There are very few people who can do the unofficial refinements I work on which not only better the work of my team but also make me more knowledgeable and valuable when it becomes time to move on and up.
One of my personal side gigs is contributing to Korea’s global standing in an emerging technical field, and I have been recognized for that by the Korean government. This will be a small but necessary part in a larger program to keep Korea prosperous as global conditions change, such as economic disruption, reduction of car culture, and market saturation for consumer electonics.
To answer your question, I rate myself highly.
My opinion is backed up by industry, government, and Adam Smith’s invisible hand.
So put your word where your mouth is. Your name and the name of your company?
“So put your word where your mouth is. Your name and the name of your company?”
My OPSEC-o-Meter needle just swung into Idiot Range.
You’re right, CH. Never trust a chinabot with your PII.
