Summary



According to this article, the graduating college seniors feel really scared because of a low percentage of employment, a long-term slump and jobless growth. The government's various stop-gap employment programs are good for a while, but they could suffer more suffered since it can keep them in an employment limbo for a long time. Nonetheless, President Lee Myung-bak just wonders why all high school graduates want to enter colleges and large enterprises. In contrast, the Lee administration's education policy still gives preference to a high scholarship person and giant enterprises. Lee really needs to try very hard to decrease the soaring youth unemployment rate for social economy.


Reaction



In the first place, it is really a big problem in Korea. Many of the my friends are suffering from this problem. At the same time, due to low percentage of employment and jobless growth, in particularly many graduating college seniors have chosen to enter a graduate school and remain as a poor person. President Lee just thinks about it too easily and doesn't give us any solutions. For these reasons, our society's high scholarship people are increasing. They just want to study more since they can't get a good job. Furthermore, even for people who have a high scholarship, it is difficult to get a good job because the competition is too high. Thereby, many of them want to study English in other countries since it could be a basic skill to get a good job. I also came to the United States to study and get a good job, though, there are a lot of people who have high English skill in Korea. In brief, nobody can get a job easily. Undoubtedly, our society's economy is going down and many people are also losing their job. Many people have no idea about it and don't expect for the Lee's government, but a bad economy is not always bad. Eventually it will be able to be changed again to a good way. In conclusion, all people have to do their best for their dream and don't have to lose their hope.
