    Request by 22 MPs that want to modify the English spelling by law.

    Because according to the articles this was the original English spelling
    before the occupying Japanese authorities changed the initial C by a K so
    that Korea would follow Japan in alphabetical order.

    Apparently Nord and South Corea(s) want to participate in the 2004 Olympic
    Games under the letter C (» Sie geht so weit, dass die beiden Länder bei den
    Olympischen Spielen 2004 gemeinsam mit dem C im Namen antreten wollen.
    Überhaupt soll das Weltsportfest der eigentliche Grund für die koloniale
    Buchstabensuppe sein. «)
