Summary
Outlook for 2009-10
- The president, Lee Myung-bak of the ruling Grand National Party, will find it difficult to rebuild his popularity amid the global economic turmoil that is undermining the local economy and causing unemployment to rise.
- Lee Myung-bak is facing the repercussions of the suicide of the previous president, Roh Moo-hyun. Political foes of the current president have started to use this as a rallying point to intensify opposition against him.
- North Korea has become increasingly unpredictable in recent months. South Korea may fear that the North will risk a direct military skirmish??
