BRIEF, AUSTRALIA
South Korean president put on notice


Fred Fuentes, Sydney
7 March 2009


"Democracy, yes! Dictatorship, no!", chanted protesters outside the Hilton Hotel in Sydney on March 4, where visiting South Korean President Lee Myung-bak was staying. The protest was organised by the Korean Resource Centre.

Lee and his ruling Grand National Party have been coming under increased pressure from union and social movements opposed to recent anti-worker and pro-big media moves.
