S Korea After The Sunshine Policy

After the Sunshine Policy
 The majority of S Koreans has been duped to elect Mr. Moon the President. This is a sad change domestic as well as international. The domestic issues such as corruption, joblessness, income equality, education, and social welfare have been raised and exclusively focused by Mr. Moon. Certainly these are social issues every citizen has to deal with each and every day. People wanted to change the leadership for better not understanding what Mr. Moon has hidden behind. The unintended consequence is that S Korean economy may stagnates if not deteriorate and be isolated from the free world, and that S Korea become more vulnerable to the N Korean nuclear threat, because Mr. Moon is a socialistic revolutionist. S Korea has to cope with two major problems: one is to denuclearize N Korean nuclear weapons to bring peace to Korean peninsula and the other is to maintain foreign trades to keep Korean economy healthy. China may be an important player in this regard. But S Korea is not a friend of China in heart, who considers Korean peninsula as her territory of her old Qing Dynasty. Xi Jinping is a politician of rejuvenation of the Qing Dynasty in the Far East. Sadly, people do not seem to see the real enemy.
S Korea does not have a long civilian government history. Practically, it had 10 years (1998 – 2008) of the progressive government and 9 years (2008 -2017) of the conservative government and it has just started the progressive government (2017 - ) again. Prior to the period, Koreans have experienced civil revolution, military control, and finally the establishment of the civilian government.  The Pro-North Moon Government will restart among others the Sunshine Policy toward N Korea, which was stopped for the past nine years. How the policy will take a shape on the economy and the security of S Korea is to be seen. Mr. Moon will forcibly push S Korea toward a socialist country though majority of people have traditionally opposed to it since the horrible Korean War.
Kim Jong-Un of N Korea appeared to have secured the nuclear weapon and missile technology enough to destroy entire S Korea into rubble and ash. The previous progressive government, Kim and Rho, helped built the power by sending to the North US$8 Billion in cash in the name of economic aid program. Everyone in the world except poor S Koreans has known about the misuse of the money. Now Kim has taken 25 million people of Seoul metropolitan area as hostage to keep his regime secure and asking more money from the South. N Korea is supported by China. No Chinse support, No Kim’s regime exists. Xi Jinping uses Kim as his foot soldier to recover the lost territory of the Qing Dynasty. The US understands the deep mind of China. A nuclear war in the peninsula is inevitable within a few years if all nuclear weapon keeps growing at the present pace. One possible scenario goes like this: China, an unreliable partner, would not cooperate with the US to denuclearize the North as she promised. The US President could not wait any longer, because the time is running out before the 2018 US midterm election, and therefore would act anyway to make a final notice for the North to stop the nuclear program in the summer of 2018. In December 2018, a holiday season and bad time for war,  Kim Jong-Un  would make an order to shoot long range rockets to land at the center of Seoul city killing hundreds of thousands people. The National Security Council of the US at White House is to make a decision whether to make the North an ash on the earth or not. This is a horrible scenario but not groundless. Kwanghwamoon riots wanted this. S Korea must wake up. We have to look back who did to bring this danger. Who gave $ 8 Billion to help build the nuclear weapon? S Korean people must watch what Mr. Moon does and restrain his ideology from going his own way.
Mr. Moon has two problems. First, Korean Government has empty coffer. He does not have enough money even to fulfill his irresponsible campaign promises. He faces foreign trade restrictions. Second, He cannot send money as before to the North to placate Kim’s appetite, because the UN Security Council resolution passed in 2016 prohibits such money transfer in any form and the US Trump administration will enforce it. The free world is on Trump’s side on this matter. Trump has many options to denuclearize the North. But Trump is hardly likely to take preemptive attack on the North at this stage. Clearly the sunshine policy is likely stalled. However Mr. Moon is like a sly fox and has been successful in deceiving people with nonsense promises to vote for him. Some Kwanhwamoon people worship him for his false humility. They praise even his worn out shoes.  

Can S Korea be independent of the communist China or imperialist USA? This has been the basic question we have been boggled with. This is totally a wrong question. We have been brainwashed to repeat this question for so many decades. No country can survive isolated from the world. We have to produce our best products to trade with other countries to live in peace together. We live by trade and competition. The real question is whether we live as a free nation or as a subject to the Qing Dynasty. S Korea has built prosperity on the freedom she has fought for. N Korea has never tasted freedom and already become a servant to China. I noticed some ignorant politicians like China better than America not knowing tyranny from liberty. They may like daily ration bestowed from the Emperor rather than to build their own life. Then the question is this: How can we keep our freedom and prosperity from the aggression of the Qing Dynasty? This is our job to resolve for us and our descendants. We have to keep alliance with our neighboring nations to make us strong altogether. South Korea, Japan, India, Australia and USA could make a strong defense to deter the Chinese expansion. S Korea needs to open her eyes to see the outside danger that is at our door instead of fighting inside each other for little things. I hope Mr. Moon grows to be a competent world leader to deal with these difficult issues at hand. Unless Mr. Moon transforms himself, S Korea does not have hope in my view.
