[News Focus] [Lee tells Yoon that he has governed without political dialogue] Skeptics point to lackluster results of previous president-opposition leader meetings In their first meeting ever after President Yoon Suk Yeol seized power in 2022, main opposition party leader Lee Jae-myung on Monday told the conservative president that his two years in office has been a "time of dominance and ruling with the absence of politics." Ahead of their first official one-on-one meeting held Monday afternoon behind doors, Lee kicked off the event by thanking Yoon for setting up the meeting and expressed hope that it would become a cornerstone to present "new hope" for the Korean people, in a 15-minute opening remark. But the amicable remarks soon turned into criticism of Yoon's presidency, in line with the Democratic Party of Korea's parliamentary election campaign which was to "bring judgment to the current dictatorship regime." "I believe the public sentiment shown in the latest elections was a serious order (from the people) to correct national affairs," Lee told Yoon at the presidential office in Yongsan-gu, central Seoul.

👉👀 I'm looking at you NGOs. ⚡ So many briefs by well-meaning non-governmental organisations that intend to promote local Vietnamese community products mean well, but unfortunately fail to appreciate some simple marketing truths. 💡 Our friends at Collective Design Agency rightly point out the added value that good branding provides. 📝 So next time you draw up a request for proposal, ensure your brief includes more than a budget for graphic designer, as design alone isn't sufficient to deliver the added value that good brand strategy and thinking can deliver.

Lately, we've often seen people asking what is needed to buy property in Japan. Here are some of the main points (note: this list is not exhaustive) to help answer these questions: - You don't need citizenship, residency, or even a visa to own property in Japan. - There are no restrictions on land ownership. - Finding financing sources in Japan can be very difficult if you are not a resident. However, if you are, more options become available based on your situation. - And to add to this point: for permanent residents, and sometimes even non-PR holders that can demonstrate stability, a deposit may not be required in mortgages Last month, we covered some of the challenges (and advantages) of buying property in Japan.
