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.

  • Plastic Into Fuel
  • Researchers say single-use plastics coupled with insufficient recycling are ruining the planet. Now there’s another reason to make sure you separate your plastic waste--it can be turned into fuel. Joseph Kim reports. [slug] Geumneung Agro-Industrial Complex Plastic waste is piled high. The end-of-life plastic waste comes from homes, stores and farms. [slug] Plastic is thermochemically broken down The waste is pressed and placed into the machine called a pyrolysis reactor. The machine heats plastics upto 400 degrees Celsius. In the pyrolysis process, the plastic waste is not burned. But instead plastic is chemically broken down into pyrolysis vapor and carbon black. [slug] Condensed pyrolysis vapor used as fuel Once the vapor is condensed, it is used at power plants as fuel. This conversion of plastic waste into petroleum is to deal with the massive amounts of plastic waste generated. The pyrolysis oil is sent to all of the power plants across the island and used to generate new energy. <타가 IN> 9,000 liters of pyrolysis oil is generated from 30 tons of plastic waste a day using plastic-to-fuel conversion technology. That can fill up 150 fuel tanks of sedans. <타가 OUT> If inappropriately disposed, plastic waste buried or burned harms the planet. INTERVIEW Kim Tae-yun / CEO, Jeju Clean Energy It's extremely important to use recycled material rather than natural resources. We have to repurpose the plastic that often gets discarded with other waste into a valuable energy resource. <인터뷰 : 김태윤 / (주)제주클린에너지 대표> "천연자원을 최소화하고 재활용 자원을 최대한 사용하는게 가장 중요합니다. 종량제봉투 속에 (혼합 배출되는) 폐비닐, 폐플라스틱을 자원화해서 소중한 에너지원으로 (활용해야 합니다)." Single-use plastics and people’s insufficient recycling habits are ruining the planet.

  • ‘More than half of marine debris is plastic’
  • 2. ‘More than half of marine debris is plastic’ Study of 1,200 pieces of debris in 2 locations A new study suggests that more than half of the marine debris in the ocean around Jeju is plastic. The Jeju office of the Korea Federation for Environmental Movements and the Korea Zero Waste Movement Network studied some 12-hundred pieces of marine debris from (김녕리) Gimnyeong-ri and (사계리) Sagye-ri. 59 percent of it was plastic. Most of the plastic waste was PET bottles or fishing equipment. Following plastic, the next most common types of debris found were glass, wood, and foreign waste. The two organizations urged the provincial government to do something, saying it hasn’t researched the issue itself or hired another agency to do so, even though plastic waste is becoming a growing threat to the local seashore. "제주 해양쓰레기 절반 이상이 플라스틱" (자료) 제주지역 해양쓰레기 가운데 절반 이상은 플라스틱이라는 조사 결과가 나왔습니다. 제주환경운동연합과 제주자원순환사회연대가 공동으로 김녕리와 사계리 해안에서 수거한 해양쓰레기 1천 2백여 개를 조사한 결과 플라스틱이 59%를 차지했다고 밝혔습니다. 플라스틱 쓰레기 대부분이 페트병이나 폐어구 등이었으며 이어 유리, 목재, 외국쓰레기 순으로 수거됐습니다. 이들 단체는 플라스틱 쓰레기가 연안을 위협하고 있지만 제주도는 조사활동이나 연구용역에 나서고 있지 않다며 대책을 주문했습니다.

  • ‘2nd airport is essential’
  • 1. ‘2nd airport is essential’ Governor says facility will have a major impact on economy The governor says there is no question that the island needs a second airport and that it will have a massive impact on the local economy. Won Hee-ryong delivered a message Wednesday to the people of Jeju on the occasion of the foundation of the basic plan for the airport. While speaking from the Provincial Office, he said the national government had uncovered no damage to area “oreum” or caves as part of the airport development plan. Those conclusions were based on a re-evaluation of the area after suspicions were raised about environmental damage. The governor also argued that it was crucial for the airport’s basic plan to reflect Jeju’s needs and priorities. He said it should include support measures for local residents, mid- and long-term investment plans, a facilitation plan for the local economy, and the construction of a connecting road to the new airport. Finally, Won said he would do everything he could as governor to overcome the controversy and conflict surrounding the proposed airport and get the project back on track.

  • Lawsuit Over Ban on Korean Patients
  • Greenland International Hospital has filed a lawsuit against the provincial government because it banned the hospital from treating Korean nationals. The province is forming a legal team to handle the suit. Joseph Kim reports. [slug] Greenland files suit against province The Greenland International Hospital was approved last year as the nation's first for-profit investor-owned hospital on condition that the scope of patients that the hospital can treat is limited to non-Koreans. The Chinese capital-invested hospital is obliged to start medical service before March 4 by the nation's medical laws. Meanwhile, the company chose to engage in a legal battle. [slug] Greenland: Illegal for province to ban treatment of Koreans The hospital said it is unlawful for the province to ban it from limiting the scope of the patients. According to a petition submitted by the hospital, it argues that the attached condition is unlawful. Actually, the legal battle was foreseen right after the province approved the business in December last year. [slug] Greenland indicated last year that it was considering legal action Greenland sent an official letter to the province that indicates that it was reviewing legal action against the province's conditioned approval. The province, on the other hand, said that the limitation is lawful and is preparing to form a legal team to handle the administrative suit. [slug] Province: Ban on treatment of Korean nationals is lawful The Ministry of Health and Welfare made an authoritative interpretation on the Medical Law and concluded in January, 2018 that it is not unlawful for the medical institute to reject providing medical service to Korean nationals in order to comply with the condition. Interview Provincial government representative Seoul concluded that the condition doesn't violate Article 15.1 of the Medical Law because it is aimed at protecting the nation's public medical system. < 제주도 관계자 > 공공의료체계 보호를 위한 방향이기 때문에 중앙에서는 의료법 15조 1항의 위반이 아니라고 판단해서 내국인 진료 제한을 (한 것입니다.)
