Island Investigations on Club Drugs Last month, a drug trafficking and distribution network involved in selling drugs such as Ecstasy and Ketamine in karaoke bars and foreigner-exclusive clubs in South (경상) Gyeongsang Province was apprehended by the Coast Guard. Amidst a series of drug crimes occurring in clubs and bars nationwide, a similar drug offender has been arrested in Jeju as well. A man in his 30s, identified as Mr. A, who was formerly affiliated with a club, has been arrested last month on suspicion of possessing dozens of Ecstasy pills and consuming them. Jeju District Prosecutor's Office has indicted Mr. A on charges of drug possession and consumption, and they have also announced that they are conducting supplementary investigations into individuals who were involved in drug consumption with him. Ecstasy, a new type of drug, is known as a "club drug" as it is primarily consumed by young people. It has a hallucinogenic effect that is three times stronger than that of methamphetamine. INTERVIEW Jo Gwang-won / Jeju Office, Korean Society of Drug Abuse Ecstasy is known to produce hallucinogenic effects that can induce a significant elevation in mood. It is indeed a drug that is commonly used by young people. The Jeju Provincial Police Agency has stated that this case is unrelated to clubs, and it is difficult to disclose specific details regarding the case, including the specific charges, as the investigation is still ongoing. According to the Korea Customs Service, the amount of newly identified drugs seized last year was 260 kg, which is more than a tenfold increase compared to two years ago. Among them, the quantity of Ecstasy seizures increased by seven times during the same period. With the recent arrest of an Ecstasy drug offender in Jeju, there is growing interest in whether the crimes are linked to related industries, as seen in nationwide cases, rather than being isolated incidents of individual crimes. The investigation results regarding any potential spread of crime to associated sectors have garnered significant attention. 제주에도 클럽 마약?…경찰 수사 확대 지난 달 경남에 있는 노래주점과 외국인 전용 클럽 등에서 엑스터시와 케타민 등 마약류를 판매한 판매책과 유통 조직이 해경에 검거됐습니다. 전국적으로 클럽이나 술집에서 마약 범죄가 잇따르는 가운데 제주에서도 유사 마약 사범이 검거됐습니다. 모 클럽 관계자였던 30대 A 씨가 지난 달 엑스터시 수십 정을 소지하고 투약한 혐의로 구속됐습니다. 제주지검은 A 씨를 마약류 소지와 투약 혐의로 구속 기소했고 함께 투약한 이들에 대해서도 보완 수사를 진행하고 있다고 밝혔습니다. 엑스터시는 필로폰보다 환각 작용이 3배나 큰 신종 마약류로 젊은 층이 주로 투약하면서 일명 클럽용 마약으로도 알려졌습니다. <인터뷰 : 고광언/ 한국마약범죄학회 제주지회장> 엑스터시를 투약하면 환각작용을 일으켜서 기분이 아주 상승되는 효과를 누리는 마약으로 알려지고 있습니다. 젊은 사람들이 많이 이용하는 마약으로 보면 되겠습니다. 제주경찰청은 이번 사건은 클럽과는 무관하다면서도 구체적인 혐의점 등은 수사가 진행 중이여서 밝히기 어렵다고 전했습니다. 지난해 관세청이 적발한 신종 마약류는 260kg으로 2년 전보다 10배 이상 급증했습니다. 이 가운데 엑스터시 적발 물량은 같은 기간 7배나 늘었습니다. 제주에서도 엑스터시 마약 사범이 검거된 가운데 개인의 단순 범죄가 아닌 전국 사례처럼 연관 업종으로 범죄가 퍼졌을지 수사 결과에 관심이 모아지고 있습니다.

Governor asks Seoul for funds Sewage treatment plants, marine logistics require support Governor Won Hee-ryong asked Seoul to provide state funding to Jeju in order to resolve major local issues, including a project of modernizing the Dodu Sewage Treatment Plant. Governor Won visited the Ministry of Economy and Finance in Sejong City on Tuesday and asked for its cooperation to fund the Dodu Sewage Treatment Plant modernization project, which has been exempted from preliminary feasibility studies. He also stressed that Seoul's policy of subsidizing marine logistics costs is not in place, even though it was one of President Moon Jae-in’s presidential pledges. He asked the ministry officials to subsidize shipping costs for vegetables from this winter. Governor Won called for an expansion of balanced development budget allocations for Jeju as the amount of the budget Jeju receives is smaller than other local governments. The ministry responded to devise measures to address it.

  • Airport protesters cite 'insufficient' impact study
  • 1. Airport protesters cite 'insufficient' impact study Two groups to block briefing session on July 11 Two second airport opposition committees held a press conference at the provincial council on Tuesday and argued that an environmental impact assessment on the island’s new airport conducted by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport is insufficient. Committee members said that the ministry had scaled back the survey area and that no summer ecological study had been conducted. They also stressed that the survey on caves in the planned site of the construction is unreliable, as it relies on literary references and is limited to rudimentary field research. They announced that they will block the assessment briefing session scheduled on July 11th. Another anti-2nd airport committee comprised of residents in Onpyeong-ri, Seongsan-eup held a rally in front the provincial government office during which they shaved their heads in protest. This symbolic gesture is meant to emphasize demands that construction of the new airport cease.

  • 40% decrease in housing construction area in Jeju City
  • 4. 40% decrease in housing construction area in Jeju City The area for multiple dwellings decreases the most by 60% Less houses in Jeju City are being built. The city officials says 806 housing construction permits were issued during the second quarter of this year. Those permits were for 202,000 square meters and that’s 40 percent less than the same period last year. The building permit area for single family detached houses dropped by 22 percent, while that of multiple dwellings and apartments plunged by 60 and 38 percent, respectively. The municipal officials attributes the decrease to Seoul’s tightening regulations for mortgage loan and increase in the number of unsold houses in Jeju City caused by high sales prices. 제주시 주택 건축허가 면적 40% 감소 제주시 지역 주택 건축허가 처리면적이 감소한 것으로 나타났습니다. 제주시에 따르면 올해 2분기 주거용 건축허가 면적은 806건에 20만2천여㎡로 지난해 같은 기간에 비해 40% 감소했습니다. 유형별로는 단독주택이 22%, 다가구 주택 60%, 공동주택인 다세대와 연립, 아파트는 38% 감소한 것으로 집계됐습니다. 제주시는 건축허가 면적이 감소한 것은 정부의 대출 규제 강화와 높은 분양가로 인한 미분양이 지속적으로 이어지고 있기 때문으로 풀이했습니다.

  • 2. Appointment system for villages chiefs on trial run from 2020 Ensured minimum term of office to enhance continuity of work The province will implement an appointment system for head of villages in the island on a trial basis from next year. Local officials will establish a detailed plan by next month for the implementation of the appointment system of village chiefs. In this system, committees comprised of 100 village residents will choose their village chiefs among the candidates who are civil servants of grade 6 or higher. The provincial government will select one or two villages from each administrative city. The province expects that the system will ensure continuity of governance and strengthen the sense of responsibility of head of villages by guaranteeing longer term of office. However, some people are raising concerns over its problems, including nepotism in the appointment system. 읍면동장 주민추천 임명제 내년 시범 실시 읍면동장 주민추천 임명제가 내년부터 시범 실시될 전망입니다. 제주특별자치도는 다음달까지 읍면동장 주민추천 임명제 실행을 위한 세부계획을 확정해 내년부터 시범 시행할 예정입니다. 우선 행정시별로 한두곳을 선정해 6급 이상 공무원을 대상으로 공모 후 주민 추천위원회에서 선발해 임명하게 됩니다. 이렇게 되면 읍면동장에 대한 최소한의 임기가 보장돼 업무의 연속성과 책임성을 강화할 수 있을 것으로 제주도는 기대하고 있습니다. 하지만 지역 연고주의와 추천위원의 선정 등 여러 부작용에 대한 우려도 제기되고 있습니다.
