"Ministry of Justice announces to regulate 3000 illegal aliens per month

The Ministry of Justice announced this year as the Year of Reducing Illegal Stays, and will deport, each month, 7000 who are illegally remaining in Korea despite continuing watch efforts. According to the Ministry, as of December 2005 there are approximately 180,000 illegal residents and the number is growing by 3000 more each month. To break down the nationalities of those who stay illegally, China tops with 44%, followed by Bangladeshi and the Philippines.
The Ministry maps out the course of gradually reducing illegal immigrants to 90,000 by the year 2008, as it proposes to enforce the announcement by tracking down 3000 violators per month while inducing 4000 to leave the country voluntarily. Hence the control will become tighter as the Ministry will operate ten joint task force teams of the Office of Immigration, the Prosecutors Office, and the Police in Seoul and its vicinity areas, and for the rest of the country the Ministry will run 10 offices with Immigration officers exclusively working on tracking down the violators."
