If I were the one that everybody in Korea has been waiting for, I would ask the congress to pay more attention on social issues rather than economical issues. Economically, Korea is one of the strongest countries worldwide and capitalism is working well, so the government doesn’t really have to worry much about regulating the self-efficient economy. However, there are multiple problems currently occurring in Korean society, such events include segregation and discrimination of foreign laborers, poor public conditions and treatments toward the disabled ones, and growing delinquency of teenagers. These kinds of social problems affect Korea in a very negative manner and hinder Korea from becoming the leading country of the world. These kinds of immature problems in Korean society act as an incongruity in the world of 21st century, so in order to raise Korea to the highest level, I will try to increase the spending of national budget in taking care of these social problems.
Disequilibrium Syrian Crisis
11 Mar
After watching the CNN news about the bombing, occurring in Syria, I took some time to really ponder about what people are going through in Syria and why they are being treated so harshly by their own government. I mean, sure the current president of Syria wants to protect his power and dominance over the country, but if we look at the very root of what the country is, we can see that the government of Syria is being too extreme and prejudicial. Talking about the root of the country, it is true that the basic ideals about the country changed over ages. However, in these days, the very root of a country is considered as the people of the country, which means that the government of Syria is actually trying to destroy itself.
The specific area, which is getting bombed, is considered by the government as the fortress of terrorists and activists. However, there are people living in that area, who did not participate in the revolutionary movement and according to CNN, these kinds of irrelevant people are suffering and dying from the bombing. Innocent children, helpless elders, and irrelevant youngsters have been injured and killed due to reckless attacks from the government. This obviously cannot be considered as fair and equal, meaning that there is a definitely existing disequilibrium in the Syrian society.
I believe there are several ways to solve this disequilibrium occurring in Syria. The most idealistic method to solve this problem would be building a bridge between the government of Syria and the activists. Different opinions from the activists and the government created a conflict, which eventually led to this tragedy among the country. By building a bridge and helping them to understand each other, the activists and the government would be able to successfully reach a peaceful solution. However, it is too much of an idealistic event to take place when there is already large number of people, who have been sacrificed and killed due to the bombing. Hatred towards the government of Syria already grew too big in people’s hearts, so mutual understanding for peaceful solution became almost impossible to find.
Considering the most realistic solution to solve the disequilibrium in Syria, I reached a conclusion that certain amount of military intervention from other countries is necessary in order to stop further destruction of the town. Many innocent people already became victims of the power game between the government and the activists, and the first priority of an intervention should be rescuing people, who are not involved in the movement. This bombing in Syria really shocked me, because I have never experienced any forceful aggression from my country’s government. Korea, my home country, is a relatively well – established democratic country, so I really could not imagine my own government quarantining and bombing my town. I really hope that by writing this essay, I can somehow contribute in any way to quickly solve the conflict in Syria.
