Experts Says Korea Needs to Allow in More Immigrants

Considering how over populated South Korea is, it may be a good thing to have some population decline in my opinion:

The government should change its immigration policy drastically in the face of the declining population, experts said Monday. 

According to a paper titled “Searching for the Direction of Mid- and Long-term Korean Immigration Policy,” published in the latest issue of the journal entitled Multicultural Content Research by Chung-Ang University’s Institute of Cultural Contents, the establishment of a ministry in charge of managing immigration issues is necessary to implement comprehensive related policies.

Kim Yeon-hong, an official of the Human Resources Development Service of Korea who authored the paper, said, “The situation will become so serious that the nation’s population will see a significant decrease in 2020, and the country, by 2030 will face national-security challenges due to a shrinking active military.” 

“In order to maintain the current size of the economy, the inflow of immigrant workers will be inevitable.” Kim said. 

According to data from Statistics Korea, the number of deaths from January to July of this year was 176,363 while the number of births was 165,000. The difference between the birth and death rates is particularly notable this year, indicating that the nation’s net annual population has naturally decreased for the first time in history.

“Experts”. Yeah. Because there’s no unemployment in South Korea right now. These “experts” are saying “immigrants” are necessary to maintain the economy. As if increases in technology and productivity are chopped liver.

How well have “immigrants” improved life in France, Germany, and Denmark? Will we start seeing people raped and the crimes covered up like Sweden? Will teachers be beheaded for “insulting Islam”?

I don’t think simply increasing quantity increases quality.

Don’t listen to those “experts”-just look what has happened to Europe and the US.

The Experts may be right. Korea needs more immigrants.

In fact, there are a bunch of Americans with advanced STEM educations in the Bay Area looking for a good home where the streets aren’t littered with needles, shìt, illegal Mexicans, and violent hoodrats, all amid needless lockdowns and crazy taxes with minimal services.

Of course Korea will need to institute some sort of ideological purity test to insure these immigrants don’t demand public policies that recreate the misery they fled from.

Just to be clear, the Experts said “immigrants”, meaning those who assimilate while contributing something to their adopted nation…

…not those who insist on accommodation and demand change.

Those are invaders… and must be repelled.

Violence is a good option for the stubborn ones, as it serves as a warning to others.

Protip, Korea Boy…

America is unsafe and violent against blacks primarily because of other blacks.

If we defund police and reduce policing, we can enhance this trend!

Good job, lefty government. Keep up the good work!
