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 .

From nothing to something super special (2023-02-10)

FSI has moved into a better institutional neighborhood where we are the poorest in the area. In August 2022, I was elected as Chairman of the Board of Directors of Freedom Speakers International (FSI) and in January 2023 FSI achieved incorporation status in South Korea. This has meant that FSI must upgrade operations and structure and I am the one, as chairman and co-president, who will be blamed if it doesn’t happen. I really should not be the chairman, for a variety of reasons, but anyway I am. Eunkoo and I are not the typical executives of a growing organization. In addition to being mainly responsible for building and fundraising for the organization, we are the hands-on leaders who are constantly in contact with North Korean refugee speakers. We look forward to the day we can afford staff to handle many tasks. Until then we can expect to continue having more days like yesterday, even on Eunkoo’s birthday. 2023-02-10 Meeting #1: planning We started Eunkoo’s birthday with a planning...
