At the 10th week, we began the class with discussed about the sixth case. The sixth case is about Solomon whom was a principal engineer at an environmental engineering consulting firm. His main role is to advise clients on what type of action to take when they are faced with risk and liabilities while conducting certain projects. The ethical issues that involved in this case is the client does not comply with the state regulation of proper waste management. Also does Solomon have to push for a more fiscally demanding yet sustainable proposal to maintain their partnership, is gaining profit more important than the overall well-being of the environment? or Is the relationship with only one client more important that the sustaining the environment?.
I think its a very interesting case because I saw so many this kind of case in Indonesia. And this kind of case usually include a very high number of bribe and gave a lot of bad impact to the environment. For this case, we choose the best alternative that Solomon could try recommending outsourcing a company/service that would help the client properly dispose of the waste from the expansion. Solomon would also tell the client about the importance of sustaining the environment. We choose this alternative because its considering not only from the firm perspective, but also how it will give impact to the environment.

Also in that week, we have a presentation about the corruption in the specific country. Our group choose South Korea because it has a very current big case about the corruption. We began our presentation with mentioned about South Korea economic background as the agricultural economy country whom success on shifted towards manufacturing and well known because their developed from being one of the world's poorest countries to become one of the world's top 20 economies today.
In our presentation, we discussed about South Korea's current corruption case which give a very big impact of their political condition. The case is actually about South Korea's President Park Geun-hye whom has become the country's first democratically elected leader to be forced from office. It could happened because of her corruption scandal. This corruption scandal centers on her relationship with an old friend, Choi Soon-Sil, and has brought allegations of cult activities, influence-peddling and leaks of classified information.
Choi is accused of using her presidential connections to pressure companies for millions of dollars in donations to two non-profit foundations she controlled. Even a very big and well known company, Samsung become one of 8 that has admitted making payments to the foundation, but denies it did so in return for any favours. President Park is alleged to have been personally involved, instructing Ms Choi and two presidential aides to collect money for the launch of Ms Choi's foundations
What makes this case become a big case is because when the justice has said that Park is confirmed with her corruption scandal, she can't be judged because of her position as a president. As this scandal unfolded, hundreds of thousands of Koreans braved the brutally cold winter temperatures to protest on the streets of Seoul from November 2016 until March 10th 2017.

Finally, four months after it, the Constitutional Court upheld that vote, ending the presidency of South Korea's first female leader. And South Korea will now hold a snap election to choose Park's replacement.
