Extractions: By Katherine Cowy Kim Date: 10-20-00 Korea, which is only the size of Kansas, has at times played a major role on the world stage. Few Americans are familiar with its history, but the new winner of the Nobel Peace Prize is something of a legend there, and the prize may help bring together a country split in half for more than half a century. PNS editor Katherine Cowy Kim is a Bay Area freelance writer and works with YO! Youth Outlook. O ver the past week, since South Korean president Kim Dae Jung was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, I asked friends and strangers alike one question: Do you know who Kim Dae Jung is? Most people had no idea who I was talking abouttheir only answer was a blank expression, a shake of the head, or eyes sauntering off in the distance. "Kim who?" a colleague asked. "Does she work in the office?"

He has just been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for bringing a thaw in the Cold War relations - as well as for his lifetime of achievements as a human rights activist. But as VOA's Alisha Ryu reports from Seoul, some of President Kim's critics at home charge that he is ignoring the domestic agenda in favor of North Korean initiatives. TEXT: When the people of southern Cholla Province received word on October 20th that their most-beloved hometown politician had won the Nobel Peace Prize, cities and villages erupted in celebration. /// OPEN FOR SOUNDS OF SHOUTING AND DRUMS BEATING - EST. AND FADE UNDER /// The Nobel Committee says it honored Kim Dae-jung for his efforts in bringing democracy to South Korea - a country that suffered for decades under military dictatorships. The committee also made a special mention of Mr. Kim's historic visit to North Korea in June which gave impetus to a process of reducing tensions between the Cold War enemies. To the people of Cholla Province, nationalists, and close associates, Mr. Kim is a bona fide hero - a man who for 30 years has held the same vision of a democratic and a reunified Korea and never waivered in the pursuit of those goals.

As Hyun-Sung Khang reports from Seoul, the comments come as North Korean leader Kim Jong Il has reportedly made his second trip to China in less than a year. TEXT: South Korean President Kim Dae-jung says North Korea may be studying the economic reform path of its closest communist ally China - and this is a positive development. He says Pyongyang is trying to undertake enormous changes in the country and that these moves will boost rapprochement between the two Koreas. The president's spokesman says Mr. Kim made his comments during a high-level security meeting in Seoul following reports North Korean leader Kim Jong Il was touring Shanghai and meeting with Chinese officials. The North Korean leader made a similar visit to China last year, shortly before the first-ever summit in Pyongyang in June between North and South Korean leaders. South Korean officials believe the latest Chinese visit bodes well for planned second Korean summit this time in Seoul - expected later this year.
Nobel Peace Prize? Who Gives Damn?
I thought nobel Prize is an honorable prize. But, no one in Korea think itis honorable any more seeing that man like kim dae jung can win it.

Extractions: Many Koreans don't think Kim Dae Jung deserved the Prize. Any Korean over age 40 knows that Kim Dae Jung is the greatest lier and corrupted money hunter in the history of Republic of Korea. Because of his fake gestures to impress you and to win the Prize, Koreans are suffering from poverty and all kinds of difficulties you can think of in their lives. They are kicked out of their jobes and are beaten severely by police. You are wrong as Kim Dae Jung never pays any attention to human rights of ordinary Korean people. That man has done nothing right so far during his Presidency and 99.99% of Korean think so. All his polcieis have failed and Korean people are dying because of the failure. I thought Nobel Prize is an honorable prize. But, no one in Korea think it is honorable any more seeing that man like Kim Dae Jung can win it. It is a meaningless party only for those people involved like you and Kim Dae Jung and no one gives damn about it. Re: Nobel Peace Prize? Who gives damn?

Extractions: By News Online's Joe Havely Kim Dae-jung was elected to the South Korean presidency in December 1997 promising to bring a new era to relations with North Korea. Less than three years later he achieved what many Koreans thought was an impossibility - a summit meeting with his isolated North Korean counterpart, Kim Jong-il. Millions in the South and unknown numbers in the North watched open mouthed as the leaders of two countries - still officially at war - shook hands and smiled on the tarmac of Pyongyang airport. The meeting represented the triumphant vindication of what President Kim - known popularly as "DJ" - called his "sunshine policy" towards the communist North. Sunshine states The June summit, bringing the two Koreas closer than they have been in 50 years, raised the hopes of Koreans on either side of the divided peninsula that a lasting peace between the last two Cold War foes could, finally, be achieved.

Extractions: President Kim Dae-jung Nobel Committee Chairman Gunnar Berge paid tribute to Mr Kim's "sunshine policy" to improve relations between the two countries, technically still at war since the 1950s. The policy led to Mr Kim's historic meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong-Il in June. There followed a dramatic thaw in relations, including reunions between families split by the Korean War, agreements to reestablish road and rail links and co-operate in clearing landmines on the border.

It should have been a festive occasion. The South Korean President had just won the Nobel Peace Prize, and his push to pry open Communist North Korea seemed to be working. In a private session, the visitors warned Kim that Koreans were deeply divided over his policy of rapprochement with North Korea. Sit down with the opposition leaders, they urged, and forge a national consensus on how to deal with Pyongyang. Above all, step back from the day-to-day fray of party politics and be more presidential. Says... The complete article is 599 words long. If you would like to read the full article, you may:

Gunnar Berge, presidente del comitato norvegese per il Nobel, ha elogiato Kim Dae Jung per la sua "politica di distensione" e per aver "allentato le tensioni che dividevano le due Coree". Per il suo impegno per la pace Kim Dae Jung si è guadagnato l'appellativo di Nelson Mandela dell'Asia. Kim Dae-jung ha alle spalle una vita drammatica tra arresti, condanne a morte, attentati falliti. La sua lotta per la pace ha portato a giugno allo storico vertice di a Pyongyang con il collega nordcoreano Kim Jong-Il. L'incontro ha segnato la riconciliazione fra la Corea del Sud e del Nord.

Extractions: By Ronald Meinardus In the light of the announcement that Kim would be awarded the most prestigious of all international political trophies, another international prize presented to the President has almost fallen into oblivion. I am referring to the ``Professor Thorolf Rafto Memorial Award,'' an international human rights award named after a late Norwegian human rights activist, engaged mainly in Eastern bloc countries. When in late September, the Norway-based Rafto Foundation announced that this year's prize-winner would be Kim Dae-jung, the joy in the Blue House was apparent. But this joy was mainly of a calculated nature: many then deemed the Rafto Award as an hors d'oeuvre of a grand banquet, in which the Nobel Peace Prize would be the main course. Just a few days ago, the 2000 Rafto Prize was awarded to Kim Dae-jung in the beautiful Norwegian town of Bergen. Ahead of the award ceremony, the Norwegian Foundation organized an international seminar on ``The Two Koreas: Sunshine Policy, Democracy and Human Rights,'' to which experts from all parts of the world were invited. I feel honored that I was included as the representative of the liberal Foundation from Germany. This seminar was one of the most interesting events of its kind I have attended. I was particularly impressed by the Scandinavians' viewpoint on current Korean affairs, as their sensitivity regarding human rights and democracy is well known. The Norwegians in particular have taken a leading role internationally in conflict mediation and Human Rights advocacy, and it is surely no coincidence that the Nobel Peace Prize, and also the far less prominent Rafto award, are presented by institutions based in that Nordic country.

Extractions: "In the person of Kim Dae-jung an Asian Statesman will receive the Nobel Peace Prize, who during all of his life fought for Democracy and Human Rights. Beyond the Korean borders Kim Dae-jung has long become a symbolic figure for the peaceful struggle against dictatorship and suppression. He has all along refuted the notion of conservative ideologues, who state, that Democracy and Asian Values do not go together." This is the introduction of the statement by Dr. Otto Graf Lambsdorff, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Friedrich-Naumann-Foundation, after the announcement that President Kim won this year's Nobel Peace Prize. In his congratulatory message to the President of the Republic of Korea Dr. Graf Lambsdorff emphasizes the joint political values and principles, that have been the basis of the political friendship between the laureate and the liberal Foundation for many years. This political friendship is reflected among others in the year-long cooperation between our Foundation and the "Forum of Democratic Leaders in Asia-Pacific, that was founded by Kim Dae-jung in 1994, Dr. Graf Lambsdorff writes. And he concludes: "Together with the liberal family in the whole world our Foundation is full of joy for this international distinction. We wish our political friend further success on the difficult path leading to the reunification of the Korean peninsula."
