Do Not Buy Nor Eat Lotte Products!:
[Lotte] Imports the U. S. Beef,
Destroys the Gyeyang Mountain
and Devastates the Traditional Markets.

Lotte who announces that it would first import the U.S. beef having the danger of the mad cow disease.
Lotte who says that it would build the golf field in the Gyeyang mountain,
a symbol of Incheon, spirit of Incheon citizens, and history of Incheon.
Lotte who habitually delays the local taxes, abusing the weak points of the law on buildings,
while killing the small, traditional merchants
by its rampant buildings of the Lotte marts and Lotte department stores.
Lotte who boasts the strong friendship with the 2MB (* Current South Korean right wing President, Lee Myung-Bak) as to declare that it would relocate the Seoul airport, the first military facility,
for the 2nd Lotte World ( * Lotte’s entertainment business)
Lotte who often causes the safety accidents of children
because of its bad facility management after the buildings of the Lotte Worlds.
Let’s not buy nor eat the Lotte products.
Let’s not use of the Lotte Department stores, Lotte marts and Lotte supers.

Ms. Roh, Hyun-Gi is the Secretary of the ‘Civil Council against the Golf Field and for the Incheon Civil Park’ (* unofficial translation)which is composed of about 55 organizations, in the city of Incheon. She has worked against the golf field construction plan by the Lotte company from 2007 and has worked with the pivotal role of the council for two years since then. The Incheon activists have started the rolling one-day hunger strike in the tent at the top of the Gyeyang mountain since Oct. 7, 2009 and she is coordinating the works on it such as the press release and schedule for the fast volunteers. Next month, fast protest site will be moved in front of the Incheon City Hall. She has recently been accused by the Lotte Company with the two others (Ryu Jong Ban, Co-representative and Jang Jung-Goo of the Green United, City of Incheon) in the council under the name of ‘Dishonoring’, ‘Intervention of business’. But the unknown high school students who have had compassion with the Gyeyang mountain struggle issue donated their money of 1 million won (* $1,000) which they had gotten for the award on the voluntary public service works, for the save of the accused three. Ms. Roh, Hyun-Gi says such donations of the similar amount by the unknown high school students who got the money for the same awards and who wanted to save the Gyeyang mountain happened twice in the past as well. Her nickname has become 'The Gyeayang Mounatin Keeper". Otherwise, She was also the initiator of the ecology education in the city of Incheon in 2003. She provided the materials above to No base Stories of Korea on Oct. 29, 2009. Please contact her regarding the issue at 4263226@hanmail.net.
