GEPIK Budget Cuts... will this be a new trend in Corea? Is this an excuse or true? Thoughts...

I use to work for this school district. Please see this article for more information about the budget cuts within GEPIK. (Gyeonggi-do English Program In Korea) I think its sad that it has come to this. I also think that the students will suffer now, because they will go without a foreign language teacher for who knows how long! Also, I think that based on my experience with my co-teachers in Korea most Koreans do not have a strong fluency in English to teach to any grade level. Some teacher are doing well, but still need more practice. What are your thoughts? See the below article. GEPIK Budget CUTS!!!
