Protest against high mobile phone rates: A protestor from the People’s Solidarity for Participatory Democracy puts on a performance urging local mobile carriers to lower call rates in front of the Korea Communications Commission in Gwanghwamun, central Seoul, Thursday. Korea’s phone rates are higher than the average of OECD countries and its spending on telecommunications is the highest among them. A placard says, “President Lee Myung-bok should honor his campaign pledge to lower mobile rates.”
