FF (normal: I prefer that North Korea isn't Best Korea which it might have very well been had Park come along- South Korea could have ended up like the Philippines or even worse, South Vietnam).

Being just effective doesn't make one an FF.

Indeed. Taking a country out of levels of poverty worse than contemporary African nations and setting it on a path of not only development, but global competitiveness, does.

HP. I really doubt that the success of Park's economic policies was because of him specifically or would have required his other policies had it happened under somebody else.

Indeed, which is why all those other American-backed regimes in East Asia did so well, right?

SMH @ the "democracy" fetishists here. Democracy is a pleasure of the wealthy. Look at India after sixty years of "democracy"... and look at states run by leaders like Park and Chiang or Lee. Would anyone claim Indian civil society is stronger than South Korean, Taiwanese, or Singaporean civil society? Yet we are expected to condemn the latter nations for their "undemocratic periods".

Vile creature who did horrible things to his people - being an efficient ruler doesn't change that, so HP. Furthermore a dictator can by definition not be a FF.

Can you please tell about some of these "horrible things"?

Massive HP (normal)

Nice to see Simfan resume his tradition of fawning over murderous dictators.

Can I get a list?
