Visiting China in May 2007

It was quite a shock to me since I have seen Peiking and Shanghai in January 1991. It was complete change and I felt like being in different city. I thought about those veterans of the Korean War claimed it was a miracle after seeing Seoul in the 1980s.
Of course joyful reunion with Dr Lee of the ILO and Prof. Han of Peiking University.

The issue of temporary workers is one of the main concerns to Korean society. They are suffering from the unstable job security and low wage. Some of them do not have compulsory social insurance coverage too.
