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.

  • New legislation would restrict casino expansion
  • New legislation would restrict casino expansion Lawmakers introduce amendment that gives governor right to deny expansions Some local lawmakers have introduced legislation that would limit the expansion of casino facilities on the island. This comes as some casino operators, like those for the Jeju Shinhwa World facility, attempt to enlarge their businesses. Provincial council members (김동욱) Kim Dong-wook and (이상봉) Lee Sang-bong introduced the amendment. It would give the governor the power to consider the suitability of any casino that planned to at least double its size. Before he gave the go-ahead for any expansion, he would have to take into consideration the council’s stance on the matter. The governor would also have the right to deny permission for such a move. The proposed amendment also includes new licensing requirements for casinos that include the hiring of local employees and the submission of regional development plans.

  • Furor Over Private School Evaluations
  • As part of an anti-corruption push, the provincial office of education is introducing a private school evaluation program, but the schools are unhappy with the plan. Joseph Kim reports. Report CG-IN A local high school refused to create a class for disabled students. A middle school refused to accept a student who was involved in school bullying at another school. All of the members of the board of directors who determine important issues about the school reside in the mainland. CG-OUT All of these schools are private institutions. [slug] Education office to evaluate private schools The provincial office of education will evaluate the management of local private schools beginning next month. The office judges that the private schools are not publicly accountable even though they are public educational institutes. Recording Lee Seok-mun / Superintendent of education At least 5.6 billion won in tax money is poured into private schools every year, but one of them wouldn’t accept a bully who caused problems at another school. Also, some school foundations demote teachers after disagreements with colleagues. [씽크 이석문 / 제주도교육감 ] "적어도 56억원이란 세금을 매해 받는 재단에서 교장끼리 모여서 합의보는데 강제 전학 (학생은) 못받겠다, 그리고 재단과의 (의견과) 틀어지면 트집잡고 강등시키는 등의 사례가 있습니다." [slug] Evaluations divided into 22 categories 22 categories including the composition of board of directors, the teacher recruitment process and payment of legal charges will be assessed. If the evaluation finds abuse of a chief director of the foundation’s authority over personnel affairs or improper composition of board of directors, subsidies for school facilities will be cut. [slug] Private school foundations unhappy with evaluations However, private school foundations have reacted strongly against the evaluation program. Private schools say that the composition of the board and school management could fall short of the education authorities’ expectations, but they don’t violate the Private School Act. They add that the education authorities go beyond its powers if its recommendations are linked to administrative and financial support. INTERVIEW Go Jae-mun / Jeju Federation of Teacher’s Association The Private School Act ensures the uniqueness and autonomy of private schools. Some schools are complaining that the education office pushed ahead with the evaluation program unilaterally. [인터뷰 고재문 / 제주도교원단체총연합회장] "사학이라는 것은 특수성, 자율성이 보장된 (기관이라고) 사립학교법 나와있습니다. 그 분들과 충분히 공론화하지 않고 일방적으로 진행된 것에 대해 굉장히 불만을 제기하고 있습니다." Private schools also demand the reconsideration of graded financial aid between public and private schools because students will be affected. [slug] ‘Input from private schools to be reflected in evaluations’ The provincial office of education says the input made by private schools will be reflected when the office develops an evaluation index. [Reporter] Joseph Kim [Camera] Ko Moon-su However, private schools suspect that the introduction of the evaluation program is intended for the education office to exercise its influence on local private schools.

  • ‘More national funding needed for “lava seawater” businesses’
  • ‘More national funding needed for “lava seawater” businesses’ Local officials press case with visiting National Assembly members National Assembly members visited the Jeju Lava Seawater Complex in Gujwa-eup Friday to inspect operations there. Members of the assembly’s small and medium venture business committee inspected the facility and discussed ways to boost business related to the seawater that is naturally filtered through Jeju’s volcanic bedrock. The provincial government has asked for more national funding for the sector. It says it needs 6.1 billion won, but that Seoul has only earmarked 2.9 billion. The national lawmakers also heard suggestions on some of the other main issues facing the island. Regarding the proposed burying of power lines, they said they plan to first do it on Udo Island or around Seongsan Sunrise Peak. They say it would be financially unrealistic to attempt to do the work island-wide from the start. 국회 산업통상위 제주 방문…"용암해수 예산 확충" 국회 산업통상자원중소벤처기업위원회가 오늘(27일) 제주를 찾아 용암해수단지 운영 상황 등을 점검했습니다. 위원들은 오늘 오전 구좌읍 용암해수단지를 방문해 시설을 둘러보고 용암해수 사업 활성화 방안을 논의하고 제주도의 현안 건의사항 등을 청취했습니다. 제주도는 용암해수 산업시설 예산으로 내년도 국비 61억원을 필요로 하지만 29억원만 반영됐다며 나머지 예산에 대한 반영을 요청했습니다. 송배전선로 지중화사업 계획에 대해 제주도는 모든 지역을 한꺼번에 추진하기에는 무리라며 예산이 지원되면 우도나 성산일출봉 일대 부터 단계적으로 추진하겠다고 밝혔습니다.
