The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects of consumer's preferences for foreign products and extrinsic cues such as brand, country of origin, and corporate reputation on the consumer's evaluation which includes the construct of perceived quality, and loyalty. In addition, this paper is aimed to provide Korean firms insights in strategic approaches about foreign consumers behavior. A conceptual model is developed and empirically tested against a sample of university students in Korea, who have buying experience of products from multinational firms. 290 samples were used for this analysis. Results of multiple regression analysis using SPSS 18.0 show that consumer's preferences for foreign products, brand awareness, and corporate reputation have a significant effect on the perceived quality of the product from multinational firms. The most important factor to influence the perceived quality was found to be a corporate reputation. But country of origin had not significant effect. Also it is found that both product and product related service quality are positive and statistically significant in explaining the customer's loyalty. Implications for increasing perceived quality and customer's loyalty for Korean products in the global market are discussed.

International legal reviews on ISD, a procedure for resolving disputes under the Korea-US FTA, are examined from the perspective of law. If the ISD system does not exist, even if the investor suffers damage due to the illegal act of the host country, he or she must file a lawsuit through the court of the host country, which is unreasonable from the investor's point of view and makes it difficult to guarantee fairness and transparency. Some of the Koreans pointed out that there are some problems with the KORUS FTA dispute settlement regulations, and that the United States federal courts are taking a friendly attitude to the decisions made by the US Customs in determining the dispute by the KORUS FTA Agreement and the US Customs Act. In cases where the State does not violate international law but results in harmful consequences, the responsibility of one country is borne by the treaty. Foreign investment always comes with many challenges and risks. Therefore, the ISD system is a fair and universal arbitration system, which is considered to be a necessary system even for protecting the Korean companies investing abroad. In the investment treaty, compensation for the nationalization of foreign property and reimbursement under the laws of the host country were dissatisfied with foreign investors. In particular, some Koreans have pointed out that there are some problems in the KORUS FTA dispute resolution regulations and there is a need for further discussion and research. Based on the experiences and wisdoms gained in the course of Korea-US FTA negotiations, the dispute arbitration mechanism is urgently needed to reduce the possibility of disputes and to make amicable directions.

To assess the impact resulted from the slag dumping, we studied that the changes in the concentration of heavy metal were researched through the statistic analysis at 4 stations in Yongil bay, Korea from 1988 to 1995. And in order to clarify resulting from the changes in heavy metal concentration due to be leaked out from dumped slag, it was fulfilled experiments of the slag extraction. In the extracting experiment, Pb and As were only leaked out from slag aged during 10 days but all of heavy metals were not from it aged during 90 or 180 days. It was found that the concentrations of heavy metals in sea water of vincinity of slag dumping area were still remained in similar, comparing with it of control site(site 4) when they were by analysed statistic method, anova test and Mann-Whitney test. The slag recycling ratio of our country is lower than foreign country. While we need to apply a new process for phosphate treatment, foreign country already apply a slag to phosphorous removal. We suggest that slag dumping cannot putatively affected the changes in the concentration of heavy metal. And we thought that impact of heavy metal induced by slag dumping was not severe. So, it is necessary to utilize this process in phosphorous removal, like a foreign country.

The Korea Foreign Trade Act(KFTA) was revised the penal provisions of the breach of the Country of Origin Labeling(COOL) recently. The ceiling of penalties became to 5 years for imprisonment, one hundred or three hundred million won for fine. The level of penalties are adjudged quite fair but the amount of penalty should be increased according to the profits from the breach or the nature of crime in some cases. The problems of the penalties are differences between KFTA and other related laws. There are related several laws on the breach of the COOL such as KFTA, Unfair Trade related Law, Customs Law, Consumer Protection Law, Law of COOL on Agricultural and Marine products etc. The penal provisions of the breach of the COOL has more heavier level than other the breach because of the criminal qualities. The problems are the penalty differences between the KFTA and the Unfair Trade Law under the Ministry of Knowledge Economy. The KFTA's penal provisions need to equate with Unfair Trade Law as long as same breaches on the COOL. The government can also consider some policies to rigid enforcement of breaches on the COOL. There are the Country of Origin Tracking system, the RoO Paparazzi System, Make public the names of habitual RoO Violators, Correction Order of breach of the COOL etc.

1980년대 중반 이후 해외직접투자에서 가장 주목할 만한 것 중의 하나는 신흥산업국의 출현이었다. 이들의 출현은 과거 선진국 중심의 선진국과 개도국의 남-북 관계에서 신흥산업국 중심의 선진국-신흥산업국-개도국으로 구성된 새로운 공간적 흐름관계를 형성시키고 있다. 특히, 1980년대 중반 이후 아시아 신흥산업국들이 동아시아 역내 직접투자를 활발히 전개함으로써 동아시아 역내 직접투자의 흐름 구조는 일본-신흥산업국-아세안과 중국으로 구분되는 명백한 계층적 구조를 지니게 되었다. 역내 직접투자 유입에서, 일본과 신흥산업국은 역외 선진산업국과 일본으로부터, 아세안은 아시아 신흥산업국과 일본으로부터, 중국은 아시아 신흥산업국으로부터 투자가 유입되고 있다. 역내 직접투자 유출에서, 일본은 신흥산업국과 아세안에 대해 상대적으로 높은 역내 투자를 보이는 반면 신흥산업국은 아세안과 중국에 대한 높은 투자를 보이고 있다. 또한 아세안 및 중국의 역내투자는 아직까지 미흡하지만 신흥산업국에 집중되고 있다. 즉, 동아시아 역내 직접투자 구조에서 신흥산업국의 중간적 역할과 성격이 점차 확대되고 있다.

The objective of the study is to examine the impact of financial development and foreign remittances on poverty and income inequality in the context of Pakistan. The study used ARDL-Bounds testing approach for robust inferences. The results show that in the short-run, remittances increases poverty and income inequality, which further translated into its long-run impact. The result confirmed the inverted U-shaped relationship between per capita income and income inequality, while the second order coefficient of per capita income substantially decline poverty incidence in a country. In the long-run, the results disappeared and it's turned into U-shaped relationship between income inequality and country's per capita income. Education largely decreases income inequality both in the short and long-run, however, it increases poverty in the long-run. Unemployment rate substantially damaged the pro-poor growth scenario, as high unemployment rate increases both the poverty rates and income inequality, which suffered poor more than non-poor in a country. Financial development has a positive impact on poverty reduction and income inequality in the short-run. The impact of income inequality on poverty incidence is positive both in the short- and long-run, which need pro-poor growth policies and rationale income distribution in a country.
