[2] Negotiations between US Under Secretary of State Christopher Hill and DPRK Vice Minister Kim Kye-gwan resulted in a couple of agreements in 2007, one in February the other in October, which seemed to offer a way forward.[3]These hopes have been dashed and prospects at the moment look dim. Under the agreements, by the end of 2007 the United States was to remove the DPRK from its Terrorism List and the Trading with the Enemy Act, both of which erect considerable barriers against North Korea’s exports, participation in international bodies such as the World Bank, 1 6 | 5 | 0 APJ | JF The Yongbyon reactor nothing to do with the uranium enrichment.

Significantly as we shall see, the IAEA was prevented from investigating the alleged Syrian nuclear reactor until the public release of the CIA video seven months after the Israeli bombing made it impossible to keep them out any longer. Scientific tests carried out under conditions of political pressure, and the reporting of them, are always dubious. One instance is particularly relevant. In 2004 the Japanese government claimed that DNA tests on a corpse claimed by North Korea to be that of the abducted Yokota Megumi proved that they were not her remains. The British scientific journal Nature subsequently revealed that the tests were inconclusive.

  • Wanting, Not Waiting
    WINNERSdateline OF THE OVERSEAS PRESS CLUB AWARDS 2011 Wanting, Not Waiting 2012 Another Year of Uprisings SPECIAL EDITION dateline 2012 1 letter from the president ne year ago, at our last OPC Awards gala, paying tribute to two of our most courageous fallen heroes, I hardly imagined that I would be standing in the same position again with the identical burden. While last year, we faced the sad task of recognizing the lives and careers of two Oincomparable photographers, Tim Hetherington and Chris Hondros, this year our attention turns to two writers — The New York Times’ Anthony Shadid and Marie Colvin of The Sunday Times of London. While our focus then was on the horrors of Gadhafi’s Libya, it is now the Syria of Bashar al- Assad. All four of these giants of our profession gave their lives in the service of an ideal and a mission that we consider so vital to our way of life — a full, complete and objective understanding of a world that is so all too often contemptuous or ignorant of these values. Theirs are the same talents and accomplishments to which we pay tribute in each of our awards tonight — and that the Overseas Press Club represents every day throughout the year. For our mission, like theirs, does not stop as we file from this room. The OPC has moved resolutely into the digital age but our winners and their skills remain grounded in the most fundamental tenets expressed through words and pictures — unwavering objectivity, unceasing curiosity, vivid story- telling, thought-provoking commentary.

  • The Garment Industry in Bangladesh: a Human Rights Challenge
    Journal of Business & Economic Policy Vol. 2, No. 4; December 2015 The Garment Industry in Bangladesh: A Human Rights Challenge Peter Stanwick Auburn University Department of Management Sarah Stanwick Auburn University School of Accountancy Abstract The purpose of this paper is to present a case study of the working conditions in the garment industry in Bangladesh. This case study describes past and current unsafe working conditions in the garment industry from the perspective of violations of human rights. Factors that are discussed in the case study include: the high incidence of injuries on the job by the workers, the very low wage rate of the workers, the lack of payment of wages to the workers, the use of gender discrimination, air quality issues in the factories, the lack of safety features in the factories, and the response of the garment industry to external stakeholders. Keywords: Human Rights; Bangladesh; Garment Industry. The Industry Bangladesh boasts some of the highest population density in the world with more than 164 million people living in the country. Of those 164 million, approximately 4.0 million people were employed in the garment industry in 2010 (ACCORD, 2015). In a country where poverty and overpopulation abound, the garment industry faces many human rights challenges. Due to favorable trade policies implemented by the government of Bangladesh in the early 1980s, textile manufacturing has skyrocketed in the country. When these policies were first introduced, there were approximately 50 textile factories were manufacturing garments and employing a few thousand workers. By 2000, there were over 3,000 factories which employed 1.8 million workers and generated total exports of over $6.4 billion US.

Weinstein* INTRODUCTION Over the years, associating with scores of law clerks and thousands of students, lawyers, and judges, I have been amazed and humbled in observing the altruistic devotion to human welfare that exudes from the hearts of so many as they enter the legal profes- sion. Our duty of public service, particularly to the less privileged, is based on more than personal satisfaction. The protected status and virtual monopoly of lawyers as actors within the adjudicatory system comes with an implied promise to work for the public good. In a larger sense, this obligation is founded upon the recogni- tion that each of us stands on the shoulders of 10,000 generations. While, of course, personal achievement should be recognized, it was the fool of ancient times who is quoted in Deuteronomy as saying that in his heart, "[m]y power and the might of my hand hath gotten me this wealth."' What we have done, we have done because of all that was done by others before us.
