March 2011 polls:

Your one wish for Korea (readers in Korea – select ONE):

Let me do something other than teach English (25%, 31 Votes)
Try critical thinking (20%, 25 Votes)
Stop demonizing foreigners (15%, 19 Votes)

Stop staring at the waygooks (11%, 14 Votes)
Let me stay for life (10%, 13 Votes)
Learn English well (5%, 6 Votes)

Total Voters: 125

I guess this isn’t too surprising – considering the many skills and talents as most foreigners have, it’s just a matter of figuring out how to match those to jobs in Korea. The language barrier would probably be an issue in some workplaces, however.

Yes, this summer (32%, 30 Votes)
No, but I wish I could. (24%, 23 Votes)
Yes, this spring (17%, 16 Votes)
