Perjury Cases Continue to Rise
Perjury offenses are on the rise with prosecutors charged 1,343 persons with the crime in 2002, a 60 percent increase since 1998's 845 it was reported Thursday. The number shows a significance difference from Japan, where five persons were charged with perjury in 2000, compared to the 1,198 Koreans during the same year
Judges and prosecutors say that perjury results from culture; telling lies is not considered to be "seriously wrong," and good friends are not supposed to "tell" on each other.
Judge Yoon Nam-geun of the Changwon District Court said that he saw cases where witnesses to close friends on trial did not appear saying that they were "sick," or saying that they "did not remember" when they did give testimony. Judge Yoon said that these were not unjust citizens, just regular Koreans who could not say anything "bad" about close friends.
Another reason for the increase in perjury is said to be "soft" sentencing as in 2001, out of 846 perjury cases tried, only 181 (21 percent) were given prison sentences. Out of 200,000 criminal cases, 25 percent were sentenced to jail terms.
Such judicial atmosphere is different from that of other developed countries; former US President Bill Clinton was disbarred for perjury. (Park Se-yong, se@chosun.com)

By the way, there are Japanese edition which have some text, not commented in the English edidtion above. Red part is the omitted text in English edition.
2000年の場合、韓国で偽証罪で起訴された人が1198人であることに比べ日本は5人だった。韓国と日本の人口の差を考慮した場合、国内の偽証が日本の671倍に達するというのが最高検察庁の分析だ。

Considering perjury/population ratio, number of Korean Perjury is 671 times than that of Japanese.
Korean is the one of the successor of Nazi.
Joseph Goebbels said:
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
