Ferno Posted April 1, 2006 at 02:58 AM Report Posted April 1, 2006 at 02:58 AM The best way to tacke corruption and prevent economic crimes is by actively promoting a sense of honesty among citizens. This is currently an issue in South Korea that the government is aggressively tackling head-on. Even though education levels are high' date=' plagiarism and other forms of cheating is not an uncommon issue in many schools, where punishments for such dishonesty are light. The government is working with education officials and teachers in rectifying this problem. If you tolerate such behavior, the students will grow up to commit unscruplous behaviors in society.[/quote'] you seem to have a keen belief in "social programming" where people can be conditioned to act a certain way, en mass. This can work with some stuff like loyalty to the government, etc.. but people are always going to cheat to get ahead - especially in a country like South Korea which places extreme pressure on students.

Ferno Posted April 1, 2006 at 07:43 AM Report Posted April 1, 2006 at 07:43 AM dunno, the president's position isn't really important. It's the people behind the scenes - the advisors, special interest groups, corporations, and the ones we have no idea about - that shape the policies. Quote
