River protest

An activist wearing a Santa Claus costume reads a statement calling for a National Assembly probe into the four-river refurbishment project implemented under former president Lee Myung-bak, during a rally in front of Lee’s house in Nonhyeon-dong, Seoul on Wednesday. Beside the activist is a dummy of Lee. A government panel that investigated the project said Tuesday that dams on the rivers worsened their water quality, but did not pose major safety problems. / Yonhap
