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.

  • Major Problems With ‘Field Training’
  • Vocational high schools offer their students the chance for real-world work experience, which they call “field training.” In the wake of a student’s death last year while taking part in one of these programs, authorities began investigating them. They’ve found numerous problems. Mike Balfour reports. On November 9th, 2017, [slug] High school killed in ‘field training’ accident in November 2017 student (이민호) Lee Min-ho died while field training. He was operating a dangerous machine, with no safety equipment or protection. Nobody oversaw nor instructed him. [slug] Fatal accident reveals widespread problems in field training programs The fatal accident reveals that vocational high school field training programs are poorly managed. A teacher designated to each student is required to attend the field training and oversee his or her student. However, there was no such supervision. [slug] Documents fabricated Teachers fabricated documents to look like they actually visited the workplace. The student that died attended the Seogwipo Industry and Science High School. That school sent students to businesses during summer vacation without approval of the provincial education office. Therefore, local education authorities were in the dark about students potentially poor working conditions. Some students were forced to work during weekends and in bad working environments. [slug] Inspectors uncover 8 offenses The provincial audit committee launched a probe into the provincial education office and the high school’s field training programs. It found eight offences and requests disciplinary action against seven officers. The provincial education office admits its faults, but adds that it could not properly handle the situation because of timing. Recording Provincial office of education representative We admit that we didn’t properly oversee the field training programs. They usually take place right after the college entrance exam, which is the busiest time of the year for us. <싱크 :제주도교육청 관계자> "현장실습 기간임에도 교육청이 점검을 못한 것은 맞고요. 저희들 입장에서는 관례적으로 현장실습을 많이 나가는 기간이 수능이 끝난 기간이라서 ... " Despite its claim to look out for each individual child, the Jeju education authorities have displayed negligent indifference having left hundreds of students alone in potentially dangerous field training environments.

  • ‘Udo Island formed about 70,000 years ago’
  • 5. ‘Udo Island formed about 70,000 years ago’ New research suggests isle is much younger than thought Researchers say they have determined Udo Island formed much later than previously thought. The provincial office of World Natural Heritage Jeju World Heritage Center says it formed about 70,000 years ago. Scientists arrived at that number by studying the age of the lava that formed the small island, which lies to the east of Jeju. This newest figure is 16,000 to 40,000 years later than previous estimates. The World Natural Heritage office says this research is highly reliable because it is based on the study of sediment that dates to both the early and late periods of volcanic activity on Udo.

  • 2. National authorities say Jeju can restrict changes to casino permits Ministry of Government Legislation announces its interpretation of existing law The Ministry of Government Legislation says that, according to its authoritative interpretation of the law, the provincial government has the authority to restrict permission for casinos that want to relocate or change other aspects of their operations. Provincial representatives say the ministry interpreted the law to mean that the province can limit changes to casino permits for the public good and the healthy development of casino industry. The province therefore plans to prepare “rational and detailed” standards for allowing changes to casino permits and it plans to add those guidelines to the upcoming 7th revision of the Jeju Special Law. 법제처 "카지노업 변경허가 제한 가능" 카지노 확장 이전 허가 등을 포함한 카지노업 변경 허가를 제주도가 제한할 수 있다는 법제처 유권해석이 나왔습니다. 제주특별자지도에 따르면 법제처는 공공의 안녕과 카지노업의 건전한 발전을 위해 필요할 경우 변경허가를 제한할 수 있다는 유권해석을 내렸습니다. 이에따라 제주도는 카지노업 변경허가 제도에 대한 합리적인 세부기준을 마련하고 7단계 제도개선도 추진할 계획입니다.

  • Marine Ecosystem Threatened
  • The seabed around Jeju is losing a lot of its plant and animal life-a phenomenon called “whitening.” Billions of won have been spent on the issue, but with little effect. Joseph Kim reports. The seabed under the clear water is dominated by a greyish-white coralline algae. This phenomenon is called “the whitening of the sea.” It prevents green seaweed and macro algae from rooting itself on rocks. [slug] ‘Whitening event’ results in lifeless seabed Due to climate change and the discharge of waste into the ocean, Jeju waters are being severely affected by this phenomenon. This has led to a lack of marine life in the water. The whitening of the seas surrounding Jeju has been observed since 1992. The Korea Fisheries Resources Agency researched 15,000 hectares of coastal areas around the island. Researchers report that 5,500 hectares or 36 percent of all fishery areas on Jeju’s coastline are affected by this phenomenon. 2,400 hectares have become severely deforested. The Korea Fisheries Resources Agency has replanted and restored marine ecosystems along the Jeju coastline since 2009 to stop the whitening of the seas. The agency has also cultivated seaweed -also called macro algae-on artificial structures and placed the structures on 5,060 hectares of Jeju coastal areas. This year it will drop the seaweed planted artificial structures at six spots to cover about 1,000 hectares. INTERVIEW Han Eun-gyu / Korea Fisheries Resources Agency Fish and aquatic plants along Jeju’s coastline are now facing a lack of food and habitat. To stop the phenomenon, we’ve planted seaweed in the Eastern, Western, Southern, and Jeju Seas. <인터뷰 :한은규 / 한국수산지원관리공단 연구원 > "갯녹음에 의해 수산 자원이 많이 저하됐습니다. 이를 극복하기 위해 수산지원관리공단에서는 해마다 제주와 동해, 서해, 남해에 바다 숲 조성을 하고 있습니다. " For the restoration project, 6 billion won has been spent. This year 8.5 billion won will be additionally used for the reforestation. However, the efforts have not paid off. There has been no significant result except that the amount and varieties of macro algae have increased a little more than ten percent. On average, the greyish-white coralline algae additionally dominates 1,200 hectares of coastal areas every year.

As the rising seawater temperature and discharge of waste into the ocean are the main culprits of the whitening, [Reporter] Joseph Kim [Camera] Kim Seung-cheol authorities’ need to take aggressive action to tackle climate change and reduce water pollution to fight against invasive species and the whitening of the Jeju sea.

  • Jeju City plans better forecasts of oriental armyworms
  • 5. Jeju City plans better forecasts of oriental armyworms Insects cause massive damage every year Jeju City will take more steps to forecast the arrival of the oriental armyworm, a pest that wreaks havoc on local plants every year. The insect, which is actually a moth, flies to Jeju from China between the end of May and mid-June. The city will monitor 50 pastures, including those at village, private, and state-owned farms, more than twice a week to determine how many of the insects have arrived and how many more are expected. The insects have not yet been found on the island this year. They damaged some 14-hundred hectares of local land last year. 멸강나방 발생 시기 도래…예찰 강화 목초지와 식물에 큰 피해를 주는 멸강나방 발생 시기가 다가오면서 이에 대한 예찰이 강화됩니다. 제주시는 마을공동목장과 기업목장, 관영목장 등 목초지 50여 곳을 대상으로 주 2회 이상 멸강나방 발생 여부를 예찰하기로 했습니다. 멸강나방은 중국에서 날아드는 해충으로 5월 말에서 6월 중순 사이에 발생하며 목초와 옥수수 등에 피해를 주고 있습니다. 올 들어 제주에서는 아직 발견되지 않고 있으며 지난해의 경우 1천 400여 헥타르에서 멸강나방 피해가 발생했습니다.
