O'Malley signs MOU with mayor of Seoul
Gov. Martin O'Malley and Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon pledged to help each others biotech industries during a brief and bilingual ceremony in the State House this morning.
The two signed a memorandum of understanding, a largely ceremonial document. Se-hoon said he it will help build a "strong foundation" between Maryland and his Asian mega-city (pop. 10 million).
O'Malley also officially announced his upcoming trip to the pacific rim, which will include a stop in Seoul. The Sun's Andrea Walker reported that trip on the front page of today's paper.
The two men signed the agreement in a room on the second floor of the State House, and were pepped with questions afterward by Korean and American journalists.
Se-hoon described the people of Seoul as "very ambitious" and he during his remarks he repeated a theme that O'Malley favors: Government investment in technology.
Another thing the two men have in common: Both have ambitions beyond their current office. Mayor Se-hoon is a presidential candidate for next year's elections.

Maryland-DO You Know Who Your REAL Governor Is ?
Was the recent election a fair one ? or was there illegal voting by all our "new american" Latino friends ILLEGALLY brought here by Omalley ?
They are trying to destroy our society from within. And if we do not stop them we will never see our normal American society ever again. All it takes is for you to do nothing about it and millions of these illegals will wash over us like a tidal wave and they will crush our society, and our schools and hospitals and prisons will overflow with demands of this new society that is not wanted here in USA and is illegally here to aid the Democrat Party win elections with illegal voting...watch and see if it does not occur...It is going on , and that is how Maryland was able to remain a Democrat Party controlled state in the Nov 2010 state election. The Republicans won a large majority of the popular votes in many states but not in Maryland and some other states. Examine for yourself some day and see if every " sanctuary state" that is letting illegals enter was a state that was won by the Democrat Party in Nov 2010. If the answer is yes it can mean these elections were illegal and illegal acts to gain power in the USA is a form of treason. It is revolutionary struggle to stop and overthrow any form of illegal government in the USA .
key word : Illegal...it only applies to normal citizens, it seems not to apply to some politicians and foreigners from other nations
but do not worry. Omalley plans to bring even more here

Once again, Governor O'Malley shows what strong and effective leadership looks like! THIS is how you bring jobs and revenue to a state. I bet he could do the same at the national level in 2016!

In keeping with the Korean format, the mayor's family name is Oh, and Se-hoon is his first name.
