Criminalization of racial discrimination8. The Committee regrets that the draft bill of the Discrimination Prohibition Act did not provide forthe criminal punishment of discriminatory acts. It further notes that the existing legislation is not infull compliance with the article 4 of the Convention, including the absence of criminal sanctions forincitement to racial discrimination and acts of racially motivated violence.Recalling its general recommendation No.1 (1972) on article 4, the Committee reiterates themandatory character of the provisions of article 2 and of article 4 and urges the State to amend itsCriminal Code to include racial discrimination as a crime and to adopt comprehensive legislationwhich criminalizes racial discrimination, provides for adequate punishments proportional to thegravity of the offence, considers racial discrimination as an aggravating circumstance and providesfor reparations to the victims.
Racist hate speech
181
.
10. The Committee notes that racist hate speech directed against non-citizens is becoming morewidespread and explicit in the media and on the internet. The Committee notes that thefundamental right to freedom of expression of the individuals involved does not protect thedissemination of ideas of racial superiority or incitement to racial hatred.In accordance with its general recommendation No. 7 (1985), No. 15 (1993), and No. 30 (2004),the Committee recommends that the State party monitor the media, internet and social network toidentify those individuals or groups who disseminate ideas based upon racial superiority, incite toracial hatred against foreigners. The Committee recommends that the State party prosecute andadequately punish the authors of such acts.
Migrant Workers11. The Committee takes note of the amendments in the Employment Permit System but remainsconcerned that migrant workers are subject to discrimination, exploitation and lower or unpaidwages. The Committee expresses further concern that migrant workers cannot de facto becomeeligible for permanent residency in the Republic of Korea, which requires five years of continuouspresence in the country, as the maximum employment period amounts to 4 years and 10 monthsrenewable once after a break of three months outside the country. The Committee is greatlyconcerned about the information that migrant workers, especially those who become undocumented,cannot enjoy their right to organize and join labour union and that some of their union executivemembers have been expelled from the country. The Committee fully shares the recommendations ofthe Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (E/C.12/KOR/CO/3) in this regard.The Committee recommends the State party to further amend the Employment Permit System inparticular relating to: the complexity and variety of types of visa; the discrimination based oncountry of origin; the limitation of the migrant workers ability to change their workplaces; themaximum employment period; and to ensure that migrant workers can fully enjoy their rights andthat migrant workers and their families, in particular children, enjoy adequate livelihood, housing,healthcare and education. The Committee urges the State party to guarantee the right of allpersons to form and join trade unions freely. The Committee requests the State party to report onthese specific issues. The Committee recommends the State party to ratify the InternationalConvention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families.

Foreign Human Rights Defenders
who were denied entry to the Republic of Korea
Since 2010, Peoples Solidarity for Participatory Democracy(PSPD) has documented cases
where foreign human rights defenders were denied entry to the Republic of Korea with the
broad interpretation of Article 11 and 12 of the Immigration Control Act (especially Article
11(1)(3) and 11(1)(4)) by the Immigration Office. When a foreign human rights defender is
denied entry at the airport, they do not have access to the lawyer as the lawyer is not
permitted access to the area where the human rights defender is held in at the airport. In
all cases, specific reasons of entry denial were not given to human rights defender.
On 6 September 2012, PSPD made a request for information disclosure to the Ministry of
Justice regarding entry denial of foreign human rights defenders but the Ministry did not
reveal the information reasoning that it was related to self-sovereignty.
Article 11 and 12 of the Immigration Control Act are as follow:
Article 11 Prohibition, etc. of Entry
(1) The Minister of Justice may prohibit the entry of a foreigner who falls under any of the
following subparagraphs:
1. Persons carrying an epidemic disease, narcotic addicts or other persons deemed likely to
cause danger and harm to the public health;
2. Persons who intend to enter the Republic of Korea unlawfully carrying firearms and guns,
209
swords, explosives, etc. as prescribed by the Control of Firearms, Swords, Explosives, etc. Act;
3. Persons deemed likely to commit any act detrimental to national interests of the Republic of
Korea or public safety;
4. Persons deemed likely to commit any act detrimental to economic or social order or good
morals;
5. Mentally handicapped persons, vagabonds, the destitute or other persons in need of relief;
6. Persons for whom five years have not elapsed after departure from the Republic of Korea
under a deportation order;
7. Persons who have taken part in slaughter or cruel treatment of peoples on the grounds of
race, ethnicity, religion, nationality, political opinion, etc. under instructions from or in liaison
with the Japanese government, any government which was in alliance with the Japanese
government, or any government on which the Japanese government exercised predominant
influence from August 29, 1910 until August 15, 1945; and
8. Persons who correspond to any of subparagraphs 1 through 7 and who are deemed by the
Minister of Justice as persons whose entry is improper.
(2) If the home country of a foreigner who intends to enter the Republic of Korea refuses an
entry of a national of the Republic of Korea for any reason other than those as referred to in
any of subparagraphs of paragraph (1), the Minister of Justice may refuse the entry of such
foreigner for the same reason.
Article 12 Entry Inspection
(1) If a foreigner desires to enter the Republic of Korea, he/she shall undergo an entry
inspection by the immigration control official at the entry and departure port.
(2) The proviso of Article 6 (1) shall be applicable to the case as referred to in paragraph (1).
(3) In conducting the entry inspection, the immigration control official shall permit the entry
after examining whether or not the following requirements are satisfied:
1. The passport or seaman's pocketbook and the visa shall be valid: Provided, That the visa is
limited only to case where it is required;
2. The object of entry shall comply with the status of sojourn;
3. The sojourn period shall be determined under the conditions as prescribed by the Ordinance
of the Ministry of Justice; and
4. The foreigner shall not be subject to the prohibition or refusal of the entry as prescribed in
Article 11.
(4) If the immigration control official deems that a foreigner fails to meet any of the
requirements as referred to in subparagraphs of paragraph (3), he/she may refuse to grant

entry permission.

immigration control official shall qualify him/her for sojourn and determine the period of
sojourn under the conditions as prescribed by the Presidential Decree.
(6) The immigration control official may enter vessel, etc. for the purpose of conducting the

2. Foreign Human Rights Defenders who have worked against the construction of Jeju naval
base
In solidarity with Gangjeong villagers, many foreign human rights defenders visited the
Gangjeong village. Unfortunately, some of them were denied entry at the airport while the
others were deported during their work in Gangjeong.
Two non-Korean human rights defenders were deported due to their involvement and
protest regarding a naval base construction in Gangjeong village. On 15 March 2012, the
Government ordered the immediate deportation of Mr.Benjamin Monnet, a French activist,
while Ms. Angie Zelter, a peace activist and Nobel Peace Prize nominee from the UK, was
asked to leave the country before 22 March 2012. When Mr. Monnet was deported, it was
not properly notified to his lawyers and he did not even have a chance to file the
revocation litigation against the compulsory eviction order.
From 2011 to 2013, PSPD documented 26 cases of entry denial among which nine cases
happened during the World Conservation Conference(WCC) organized by the International
Union for Conservation of Nature(IUCN).
