S. Korea ranks 15th in 'best country' study
South Korea is the world's 15th best country to live in according to a study conducted by U.S. news magazine Newsweek. South Korean President Lee Myung-bak is on e of the top ten leaders around the world for managing the global financial crisis. The study was conducted on 100 countries according to five categories of national well-being, which are education, health, quality of life, economic competitiveness, and political environment. South Korea came second for its education levels, with a literacy rate of 97.9 percent with average school age of 14.3. The economic competitiveness ranks third. Finland is the best country to live in follow by Switzerland, Sweden and Australia. Japan is at ninth place. Naming South Korean President Lee puts in place effective economic policies and brought about "the fastest economic recovery among OECD nations."
In my opinion, Thailand is also a country which has a good education for student. I do agree with the article that Korea is the best country to study with good quality and environment. University in Korea is also in a top rank of the world too.
