However, limited agricultural activity was allowed in the Civilian Control Zone (CCZ) surrounding the DMZ. In this study, land cover and vegetation changes in the western DMZ and CCZ from 1919 to 2017 were investigated. Coniferous forests were nearly completely destroyed during the war and were then converted to deciduous forests by ecological succession. Plains in the DMZ and CCZ areas showed different patterns of land cover changes. In the DMZ, pre-war rice paddies were gradually transformed into grasslands. These grasslands have not returned to forest, and this may be explained by wildfires set for military purposes or hydrological fluctuations in floodplains. Grasslands near the floodplains in the DMZ are highly valued for conservation as a rare land type. Most grasslands in the CCZ were converted back to rice paddies, consistent with their previous use. After the 1990s, ginseng cultivation in the CCZ increased. In addition, the landscape changes in the Korean DMZ and CCZ were affected by political circumstances between South and North Citation: Kim, J.H.; Park, S.; Kim, Korea.

    POLICY BRIEF 1Q 2019 Satisfaction Survey Report on the Youth Basic Income in Gyeonggi Province Basic Income Research Group(BIRG) August 2019 Gyeonggi Research Institute POLICY BRIEF 1Q 2019 Satisfaction Survey Report on the Youth Basic Income in Gyeonggi Province Basic Income Research Group(BIRG) August 2019 Gyeonggi Research Institute Gyeonggi Research Institute Preface Recently, basic income is attracting people’s attention. This is due to the fact that it is being considered as a countermeasure for solving the social issue that our society is confronted with. However, controversies related to basic income and confrontations in stances still exist acute. Amidst it, there has been big and small experiments and pilot projects conducted to identify the effect of policies. The substantial number of cases is demonstrating extremely positive results. However, the limit lies in the fact that majority of them are small in scale or are not free from experimental conditions. On the contrary, instead of relying on experiments, Gyeonggi Province has been implementing a policy in full scale, that is a project on payment of youth basic income since April 2019. The youth basic income in Gyeonggi Province involves paying out KRW 1 million in the form of regional currency 4 times in a year individually to youths (age of 24) who has been residing in Gyeonggi Province for at least three consecutive years. Those eligible to receiving payment in a year are approximately 175,000 people, making this policy the second biggest in the world after the State of Alaska in USA in terms of scale. It is a case that is gaining international attention not only because of its scale but also because it is not an experiment and is an actual policy in implementation.

By 9 October, 14 outbreaks of ASF in domestic pigs had been diagnosed in 4 cities/counties. We isolated viruses from all infected farms and performed genetic characterization. The phylogenetic analysis showed that all of fourteen ASFV isolates in South Korea belong to genotype II and serogroup 8. Additionally, all isolates had an intergenic region (IGR) II variant with additional tandem repeat sequences (TRSs) between the I73R and I329L genes and showed characteristics of central variable region (CVR) 1 of the B602L gene and IGR 1 of MGF 505 9R/10R genes. These are identical to the genetic characteristics of some European isolates and Chinese isolates. Keywords: African swine fever; virus isolation; genetic characterization; South Korea 1.

Academic Editors: William D. Shuster, Audrey L. Mayer and Ahjond S. Garmestani Received: 13 February 2016; Accepted: 7 April 2016; Published: 13 April 2016 Abstract: With the decrease in the demand for large-scale apartments as a result of an aging society and a decrease in population, there has been an increase in vacant houses due to a supply that exceeds the projected demands. As a method of urban regeneration in rural areas and activation of citizen communities, the utilization of vacant houses has become one of the ways to promote a new lifestyle, active movement for citizen participation, and business model for long-term revitalization. This study aims to uncover and examine the major causes and factors behind the upswing in vacant houses. We investigated the current state of vacant houses, the recent policies concerning them, and the types of vacant houses in Korea’s Gyeonggi province. We then categorized and analyzed the causes of houses being vacant, their types, and the methods of utilizing them under different local conditions in order to understand the efficient processes and strategies for their utilization.

    POLICY BRIEF Q3 2019 Satisfaction Survey Report on Youth Basic Income in Gyeonggi Province Basic Income Research Group(BIRG) December 2019 Gyeonggi Research Institute POLICY BRIEF Q3 2019 Satisfaction Survey Report on Youth Basic Income in Gyeonggi Province Basic Income Research Group(BIRG) December 2019 Gyeonggi Research Institute Gyeonggi Research Institute Preface Gyeonggi Province has implemented the Gyeonggi Province’s project on payment of Youth Basic Income since April 2019 and after the payment for the 1st quarter had ended, a satisfaction survey for the 1st quarter has been conducted. As the result of the satisfaction survey at the time of first payment of Gyeonggi Province Youth Basic Income was reasonable, it was assumed that it would not be difficult to forejudge the results when the number of payment accumulates in the future. The result after the payment for the 3rd quarter surely demonstrates that the said prediction was correct. Gyeonggi Research Institute conducted a satisfaction survey on youths who have received and used the Youth Basic Income after the payment of KRW 250,000 had been paid out for the 3rd quarter as Gyeonggi Province Youth Basic Income in September. They are applicable in case they have applied for 2nd quarter and 3rd quarter as well out of the 124,335 applicants who have applied for the 1st quarter of Youth Basic Income. Among them, 3,500 people were sampled and over the survey period from November 4th to 15th, web questionnaire was conducted through survey specialist institute, Research Rim Co., Ltd. It’s survey questions and details were equivalent to those of the 1st quarter, and the subjects were selected based on random sampling method.
