2032 Magazine article by Casey Lartigue

I have an article in the March issue of 2032 Magazine, published by the Liberty Society in Seoul. I am now a Visiting Scholar with the Institute.

1) I get to brag about some of the great stuff I did back when I was the Director for International Programs.
2) The organization was recently ranked among the top think tanks in the world. Coming in #106 might not seem great to some, but #106 out of 6,603? That's damn good! Apparently that puts the organization in the top 1% of think tanks around the world. And it is ranked #4 of Korea's 35 think tanks.
3) Thanks to Hana Lee, Aaron McKenzie, Eric Song, and other great staff members, but most of all, Kim Chung-Ho for making me the Jackie Robinson of the expat community in Korea, by making me the first (and possibly) last non-Korean that the Institute has hired.

Chosun Monthly magazine [Korean language]

Chosun Monthly Magazine has made an announcement (in Korean) about the Seoul Honorary Citizenship award that I received on December 9, 2022. Our Korean staffers say that the magazine is a big deal in South Korea. Here's the overall roundup of media about the award. In the next two months, I have extended interviews coming up in two different magazines, one in the USA and one in South Korea. Both articles will be in respected publications so they should raise awareness of FSI's work that your support makes possible. * * * Support FSI via Stripe or PayPal . https://donate.stripe.com/3cs28F5IAcc85IAaEF or PayPal .

The waitresses have mostly maintained a low profile. There have been numerous accusations and assertions, with some saying the waitresses didn't want to escape, some accused the Park Geun-hye administration of playing politics by releasing details of the case, etc., etc., etc. My blog at the Korea Times today features an exclusive interview with one of the former North Korean waitresses who filed a criminal case against the former manager. You can read about it here on the Korea Times website. https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/opinion/2023/02/728_345165.html Keep in mind that there are many more facts to the case and that it is much deeper than this brief excerpt of her comments. She also shared legal documents that I shared with the Korea Times well in advance to give them time to review t...
