Developing awareness

Article Abstract:

An emphasis on development has forced environmental concerns in South Korea into the background, though increased spending and a higher profile for non-government organizations promise some change. Many people consider waste and pollution problems for local or central government, and interministerial confusion, bickering, and red tape compound the difficulty of changing attitudes and achieving goals. The country spent only 0.51% of its GDP on environmental protection in 1995, up from 0.39% in 1994, but businesses and citizens are growing more aware.

Club-land comes to China

Article Abstract:

Luxurious private clubs are proliferating in China and provide an opportunity for wealthy locals or expatriates to network or entertain in an opulent setting. The clubs are no longer associated with Western decadence, but are embraced a benefit of a market economy. The marketing approach is to link a particular kind of ambiance by offering sports facilities, leisure facilities or facilities for families to uses as a get-away from city life.
