Zero tolerance for graft, says Park
South Korean President Park Geun-hye said she will have zero tolerance for corruption, amid calls for the prime minister to resign. Prime Minister Lee Han-koo faced a second day of intense questions in parliament on Wednesday over whether he took $27,000 in 2013 from businessman Sung Wan-jong, who was found last week hanging by his necktie from a tree while under investigation for fraud and bribery.
