Calls have again been made for civilian short-wave broadcasters focusing on 
North Korea 
issues to be allocated frequency in South Korea for the purpose of enhancing 
efforts to 
improve North Korean human rights.

A senior researcher with the Hansun Foundation for Freedom and Happiness, Lee 
Young 
Hwan told a conference for political, religious and other social organizations 
to discuss new 
policies regarding North Korea, "We need to come up with a real plan regarding 
unification 
and diplomacy that will actually do something for the human rights of our 
brethren in North 
Korea."

Lee went on, "Those currently broadcasting on North Korean issues in this 
country have 
never been assigned a frequency, and as such they rent frequency abroad," 
before 
emphasising, "We need to make it so that these civilian broadcasters on North 
Korea actually 
have a frequency to use."

He also spoke of the need to "Overcome difficulty and be patient in pursuing 
liberation of 
broadcasting in both countries, and finding a route for the peoples of North 
and South Korea 
alike to be able to freely listen to whichever broadcasts they choose."

The conference was attended by people from all sectors of society, including 
left- and right-
wing politicians, representatives of Christian and Buddhist groups and other 
social 
organizations, all gathering together to discuss the direction of future 
unification policy.

The standing president of the KCRC, Kim Deok Ryong said in his opening address, 
"Conservative and progressive sides of politics both have the same objectives 
when it comes 
down to it. We are all here to search out a new paradigm for the continuing and 
forward-
looking direction of North Korea and unification policy through rational 
discussions and 
debate."

Below is a summary of some of the other highlights of the conference.

? Choi Dae Seok (Chief Researcher, Institute for Unification Studies, Ehwa 
Women´s 
University)

"A large problem is that the stance of principled engagement completely 
collapsed starting 
with the Kim Dae Jung administration, while the current government has lost the 
momentum 
created from several decades of policy through its overemphasis on unbending 
principles. In 
creating a position of principled engagement, the most important thing is to 
balance what is in 
the best interests of the Korean people with those of the state.

In the short term a stance of principled engagement means expanding 
inter-Korean 
exchanges through humanitarian aid and other means, while in the medium to 
long-term we 
must work to exert continuous pressure on the nuclear issue and other problems 
affecting 
relations between our two countries."

? Park Joo Seon (Democratic Party National Assembly lawmaker)

"China has been consistent over the last ten years in its support for Korea´s 
`Sunshine Policy´ 
and policy of engagement towards North Korea. China´s support allowed South 
Korea to 
wield further influence in the US-ROK alliance, relations with North Korea and 
at the Six Party 
Talks. There is a need for a sophisticated and creative effort to convince 
China to support 
our policy initiatives."

? In Myeong Jin (Priest, Galilee Church)

"The next two to three years are a crucial time in inter-Korean relations. For 
this reason the 
Lee Myung Bak administration must work to establish an environment in which it 
can achieve 
some sort of `grand bargain´ before it is too late. The environment could be 
created by 
normalizing humanitarian aid, restarting tourism to Mt Geumgang and abolishing 
the May 24 
Measure. If trust between the two Koreas can be built up through these 
initiatives a grand 
bargain will be possible." Standard rig : ICOM R75 / 2x16 V / m@h40 heads
