    DEFENSE WHITE PAPER Message from the Minister of National Defense The year 2010 marked the 60th anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean War. Since the end of the war, the Republic of Korea has made such great strides and its economy now ranks among the 10-plus largest economies in the world. Out of the ashes of the war, it has risen from an aid recipient to a donor nation. Korea’s economic miracle rests on the strength and commitment of the ROK military. However, the threat of war and persistent security concerns remain undiminished on the Korean Peninsula. North Korea is threatening peace with its recent surprise attack against the ROK Ship CheonanDQGLWV¿ULQJRIDUWLOOHU\DW<HRQS\HRQJ Island. The series of illegitimate armed provocations by the North have left a fragile peace on the Korean Peninsula. Transnational and non-military threats coupled with potential conflicts among Northeast Asian countries add another element that further jeopardizes the Korean Peninsula’s security. To handle security threats, the ROK military has instituted its Defense Vision to foster an ‘Advanced Elite Military,’ which will realize the said Vision. As part of the efforts, the ROK military complemented the Defense Reform Basic Plan and has UHYDPSHGLWVZHDSRQSURFXUHPHQWDQGDFTXLVLWLRQV\VWHP,QDGGLWLRQLWKDVUHYDPSHGWKHHGXFDWLRQDOV\VWHPIRURI¿FHUVZKLOH strengthening the current training system by extending the basic training period and by taking other measures. The military has also endeavored to invigorate the defense industry as an exporter so the defense economy may develop as a new growth engine for the entire Korean economy. To reduce any possible inconveniences that Koreans may experience, the military has reformed its defense rules and regulations to ease the standards necessary to designate a Military Installation Protection Zone.

The stress and emotional sensations of conflict and displacement were an impetus to create literature of uncommon perceptiveness and candour, and artwork of great virtuosity, the merit of which is only augmented by the artist or printers’ use of uncommon or improvised materials and techniques.

    NEIGHBORS and RIVALS: China in Turkey's Educational System

    NEIGHBORS AND RIVALS China in Turkey’s Educational System Eldad J. Pardo and Mehmet Ekinci February 2017 IMPACT-se Suite 15, Belgium House, Givat Ram Campus, Hebrew University of Jerusalem Office/Fax: +972-2-5332497 Website: www.impact-se.org The Root of Anti-Chinese Protests in Turkey: Strategic Insights from Education By Eldad J. Pardo and Mehmet Ekinci1 The attempted July 15 coup d'état in Turkey occurred on the heels of numerous core issues relating to the political culture in this important country. For the purpose of this report, we will examine a less-known incident, while briefly examining the connection to current Turkish education. Just a year before the coup, during the summer of 2015, rampant anti-Chinese protests took place in Turkey with Turkish demonstrators burning Chinese flags and attacking Chinese tourists and restaurants while China warned its citizens traveling in Turkey to take precautions.2 Several demonstrations were held across Turkey to protest alleged Chinese maltreatment of ethnic Uyghurs during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. The protests gathered momentum following alleged reports that China had imposed strict bans on the Uyghur Muslim minority in China's large northwestern region of Xinjiang also known as the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. Uyghurs are Muslims who speak a Turkic language.3 It was reported that they had been banned from worship and fasting during Ramadan. Turkish news outlets also reported that Chinese police killed eighteen "Uyghur Turks."4 The Chinese government has said that it fully respects the freedom of Muslim religious beliefs and that the alleged accusations were both completely at odds with the facts and exaggerated by the Turkish media.5 Anti-Chinese demonstrations started in the beginning of July 2015, when Turkish citizens, brandishing sticks and throwing stones, attacked a Chinese restaurant in the city center of Istanbul.
