[Chapter-delegates] Application to form a Chapter in Republic of Korea

[Edwin A. Opare]

Elver,

The Republic of Korea is the same as the Democratic Republic of Korea =
South Korea.

Here is a line from an official Korean literature to clarify everything

*The Korean peninsula is currently divided slightly north of the 38th*
*parallel line. The Democratic Republic of Korea is situated in the south,*
*whereas the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, communist Korea,*
*is situated in the north. South Korea, officially the Republic of Korea,
is a*
*free market and developed country with membership in the Organization*
*for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the Group of 20*
*(also known as G20).*

Therefore +1 to the formation of a Chapter in South Korea.

Best regards,

Edwin A. Opare
(ISOC Ghana)
