The bias against Korean Buddhists seldom makes it to the news in the West. Earlier this year there was a series of country wide protests by Buddhist monks against the government of President Lee Myung-bak for systematically discriminating against Buddhists on all levels of govenment. In the end Lee Myung-bak had to apologize to Buddhists on national television for the actions of the govenment. Recently the Korean National Police Chief also aplogized for the unfair treatment of Buddhists by the police.
