(As of 2013) Presentation materials by Professor Choi Yeon-hyeok on the theme "Recent Welfare State Discourse and the Direction for Korea."

These presentation materials offer an extraordinarily rich set of implications for the direction of Korea's social security system development.

The trajectory of Sweden's national debt shown on slide 15 of the presentation materials is nothing short of remarkable!

Sweden's national debt, which had soared to 76.6% of GDP in 1995, was reduced to 34.8% of GDP by 2010.

It is the sincere hope of this forum that Korea's welfare policy experts, politicians, and media

will come to regard these materials as required reading.
