South and North Koreans stress peace and prosperity at welcoming banquet on Thursday - Duration: 2:54.
Our top story this morning...
A group of 160 South Koreans are in the North Korean capital to celebrate the 11th anniversary
of the October 4th Declaration.
At the welcoming dinner on Thursday evening, both the South and North Korean representatives
stressed they're opening a new era of peace and prosperity... and should walk on hand-in-hand.
Our Oh Jung-hee starts us off.
A new era of peace and prosperity.
That's what the South and North Koreans toasted to on Thursday at their welcoming banquet
in Pyeongyang.
Ri Son-gwon, the head of North Korea's reunification committee, stressed... a new era has come
for the Korean people... and they should march together on a road to peace.
"Thanks to our leaders' patriotism and passion... and the people's ironclad will for reunification,
a new era of peace and prosperity is now opening.
Just as we like the same food, we have the same ideals and the same path ahead of us."
South Korea's Unification Minister Cho Myoung-gyon highlighted how visiting Pyeongyang feels
so normal now.
He added... the core point of the latest inter-Korean summit agreement is 'taking real actions'...
and that has already begun.
"With this joint celebration of the October 4th anniversary, we are implementing the Pyeongyang
Joint Declaration.
I look forward to even more people in both Koreas making peace and prosperity together."
He added... peace and prosperity will definitely settle... when the two Koreas are connected
by truly demilitarizing the border area and the Korean Peninsula becomes denuclearized.
The leader of South Korea's ruling Democratic Party Lee Hae-chan, who visited Pyeongyang
back in 2007 as a Prime Minister of the Roh Moo-hyun administration,... said he feels
a major change is underway.
He said he's grateful that possibly FOUR inter-Korean summits could take place this year alone.
"We've been divided for 70 years and that has harmed us so much.
I'm grateful we're ending that era of division and confrontation, and shifting to a new era
of peace and prosperity."
Earlier on Thursday, the South Korean delegation toured a science-technology complex in Pyeongyang...
and watched a music performance by North Korean singers and bands.
One-hundred-60 South Koreans went to Pyeongyang on Thursday for a three-day trip... to celebrate
the 11th anniversary of the 2007 summit agreement, called the October 4th Declaration.
Oh Jung-hee, Arirang News.

Today I'm going to talk about a topic that is quite popular in Brazil right now
which is elections and politics!
But no need to worry because I won't make any publicity for candidates or parties, okay?
This channel is not about politics after all..
But I thought that it'd be interesting to use this topic that is popular at the moment
to give you some cool curiosities about these things!
If you want to know more about how elections are in Japan,,
stay with me, okay?
If you are new here,, feel yourself more than welcome!
I hope you will love this channel to the point that you'll want to subscribe and activate the notification bell,
to stay with us here more times, okay? ^^
Are you ready to know more about elections and politics in Japan?
Intro!
I will tell you now 15 curiosities about politics and elections in Japan, okay?
Number 1!
Japan is ruled by a parliamentary monarchy,,
that has the emperor as a main figure.
The role of the emperor is ceremonial,,
turning the parliament into the country's decision-making.
The Japanese legislative power is the national diet.
It is a bicameral institution composed by 2 chambers.
There's the lower house called The House of Representatives,,
composed by 465 members who are elected for a 4 year term.
And there's the upper house called The House of Councillors,,
composed by 242 members who are elected for a 6 year term,,
not to mention there's new elections every 3 years to renew half of the house.
The head of state is the prime minister,,
he is nominated by the emperor after being indicated by the national diet.
The current prime minister is Abe Shinzou
from the Japanese liberal democratic party,,
which is a conservative center-right to right party.
Number 2!
The 1st national election in Japan was held in 1890.
As for Brazil,, the 1st presidential election was held in 1891.
Number 3!
Different from Brazil,, where people from 18 to 70 years old are obligated to vote..
the voting ain't obligatory in Japan.
In 2015 they lowered the voting age to 18,,
in an attempt to listen more to the voices of young people.
However,,
the young people in their 20s are the least likely to vote in Japan.
Number 4!
The interest in politics among young Japanese is much smaller compared to young Brazilians.
As for myself, I've never discussed politics with my Japanese friends.
I don't know if they didn't talk about politics with me cause I was a foreigner who didn't have the right to vote,,
but even in the social networks,, I don't see people around me talking much about politics.
As for here in Brazil,, many people break their friendship because of politics..
I have my own way of thinking and I do respect people who thinks different than me,,
I find it kinda sad the fact that many people can't respect divergence..
but if you are going to fight and insult the people who think differently,,
perhaps it's better to stay far away from trouble.
I don't go out stating my vote out there exactly to avoid fights like that.
Number 5!
In Japan, I used to have a politics class at school.
I confess that it wasn't my favorite school subject xD
but I find it worth learning important things everyone should know at least the basics since you are kid.
I can't speak for all the schools but as for the ones I've attended,,
there was no indoctrination from the part of the teachers,, because things like that ain't allowed there.
Here in Brazil, you hear several reports about teachers who do indoctrination,, which is shameful in my opinion.
Number 6!
Unlike Brazil, there is no voter registration card in Japan.
Before the election, the Japanese people receive a Voting Place Entrance Ticket
that has the infos of the place and time of the election.
It's the only thing you should bring in the election day,,
and in case you forget that ticket,,
they will try to look up your data in the records so you can vote.
Number 7!
Except the local elections, electronic voting machines aren't used to vote in Japan like in Brazil.
Although Japan is one of the most advanced countries in technology,
they still prefer the traditional voting system.
There is some resistance to the introduction of electronic voting machines
because they believe this method can lead to some kind of adulteration.
And to strengthen even more their concern,,
recently, at the biggest worldwide hacking conference, they've tested the security of electronic voting machines
and all the models that were tested have been hacked in less than 2 hours!
So you tell me,, do you believe that Brazilians electronic voting machines are safe?
Number 8!
In Japan, candidates do not use identification numbers like in Brazil.
When you are voting, you need to write the full name of the candidate / party in kanji, hiragana or katakana.
Number 9!
Did you know that in Japan, there is the option of early voting?
It is an option for those who can't vote in the election day because of a commitment,,
or simply who wants to avoid queuing and a huge crowd on official voting day.
It's very useful, right?
Number 10!
People who are hospitalized can vote from the hospital or asylum.
Voters with disabilities can vote by mail in Japan.
Number 11!
In Japan, there is a specific place to put posters of the candidates.
You can't just stick the campaign material wherever you want..
Number 12!
Unlike Brazil, election propaganda on radio or TV in Japan is not allowed.
Recently, it was allowed to do campaign at social media which is gaining strength,
other than that, there are rallies, advertisements in the newspapers, word of mouth,,
and you can see in the streets, election parades of the candidates that circulate the city to get votes.
Number 13!
If you are one of the first people to vote at your voting location,,
you have the opportunity to check the ballot box.
They do this so that third parties confirm that the ballot box is empty and that there is nothing wrong with it.
Number 14!
To avoid other people seeing your vote, you fold the ballot paper and deposit it in the ballot box.
But the material of the ballot paper in Japan is made of a specific material that when it falls inside the ballot box,
it opens by itself to facilitate counting of votes.
Number 15!
Candidates must make a deposit of a certain amount of money equivalent to the position they wish to apply.
This system was created to avoid the candidacy of people without responsibility
who would do this only to gain fame.
Well, those were the 15 curiosities about the elections / politics in Japan!
What did you think?
Did you have any curiosity that you wished it was the same in your country too?

I truly need your help to make this channel bigger, okay?
Sunday is election day here in Brazil, but did you research well the proposals of your candidates?
I've been doing that a lot and I hope that the people I'll trust my vote,,
would do a decent job in case they'll be elected..
because our country has everything to be a better place!
I really pray for us to get out of this mud..
May the government be able to form an awesome team of people who really care
and want to improve our country.
That's why our service is very important to research well the people we are going to put there.
And we also need to do our part so that our country can grow again.
Forget a little bit the hate and intolerance for the people who think differently aside
and try to unite so we can fight together.
We need to learn a lot from the Japanese in this part
because they always manage to come together in crisis to get out of the hole.
They always manage to do it so why can't we?
I hope everyone has a great voting day..
and may the representatives you have chosen can represent you well!
And it is always good to ask for all that they have promised,,
after all, we have to keep an eye on them cause you know what happens if we don't, right?
And let's pray that everything will work out!
That's all for today's video,, thank you so much for watching!
I hope to see you in the next video, okay?
Big kisses and mata ne~! <3
