Hankyung.com introduces: CODIT Launches AI-Powered English Policy Dashboard to Help Global Companies Track Korean Regulatory Changes
New platform provides real-time updates on Korean legislation and policy shifts for government affairs and legal teams
SEOUL, South Korea, Feb. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- A news report from Hankyung.com:
CODIT, an AI-driven regulatory intelligence platform, has launched an English-language policy dashboard designed to help multinational corporations track legislative and regulatory changes in South Korea in real time. The platform aims to support government affairs professionals, legal teams, and compliance officers by providing instant updates on policy shifts, enforcement trends, and legislative developments affecting foreign businesses.
The English Policy Dashboard is the first AI-powered platform of its kind to offer automated translation, legislative tracking, and policy risk assessment for global companies operating in Korea. With increasing regulatory scrutiny in areas such as artificial intelligence, ESG disclosure, and foreign investment, CODIT's solution is designed to help companies proactively manage compliance risks and align corporate strategy with evolving regulations.
"Korea's regulatory environment is shifting rapidly, and global companies need more than delayed translations or fragmented updates," said Ji Eun Chung, CEO of CODIT and a former OECD policy expert. "Our AI-powered dashboard delivers real-time intelligence, giving legal and government affairs teams the ability to anticipate changes, mitigate risks, and make strategic decisions with confidence."
AI-Powered Monitoring for Legislative and Compliance Teams
CODIT's English Policy Dashboard includes several key features designed to streamline regulatory monitoring for multinational businesses:
Legislative Tracking: Real-time updates on proposed, pending, and enacted laws impacting corporate governance, AI regulation, ESG compliance, and digital policy.
AI-Powered Policy Insights: Automated translation and expert analysis of government regulations, policy trends, and enforcement actions.
Regulatory Risk Monitoring: A ranked list of Fair Trade Commission penalties, tracking top regulatory fines with live currency adjustments.
Government Press Releases & Statements: Translations of official announcements, policy updates, and legislative briefings for global accessibility.
CODIT's launch comes as global businesses increasingly seek more efficient tools to navigate Korea's policy landscape, particularly in highly regulated industries such as finance, technology, and pharmaceuticals.
"Regulatory uncertainty is one of the biggest challenges for companies entering or expanding in Korea," said Chung. "By leveraging AI, we're making it easier for multinational corporations to stay ahead of policy changes and regulatory trends that could impact their operations."
Global Business Leaders Join CODIT's Policy Webinar
Ahead of the launch, nearly 200 business leaders from Korea, Japan, the United States, Germany, and Singapore participated in CODIT's policy webinar, "Navigating Korea's 2025 Policy & Regulatory Landscape." The event featured Hong Ihk-pyo, a three-term National Assembly member and former Floor Leader of Korea's largest political party, discussing key regulatory shifts in 2025. CODIT CEO Ji Eun Chung provided a comparative analysis of Korea's regulatory direction against key markets, including the U.S. and Asia, offering insights for multinational corporations navigating compliance and market risks.
Expansion to U.S. and International Markets
The launch of the English Policy Dashboard is part of CODIT's broader global expansion strategy, with plans to enter the United States, Japan, and the European Union in 2025. CODIT, already trusted by Fortune 500 companies, is building out its AI-powered regulatory intelligence platform to offer policy tracking solutions across multiple jurisdictions.
"As regulatory complexity increases worldwide, companies must take a more proactive approach to compliance and policy monitoring," Chung said. "We are scaling our AI-driven intelligence platform to provide businesses with real-time, cross-border policy insights."

I couldn't build a future on my Nigerian teaching salary, now I earn triple in the U.S.
This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with a successful teen coach and counselor based in Atlanta, U.S. Business Insider Africa has verified his professional background. The author shares his journey from teaching in Nigeria to becoming a successful teen coach and counselor in the U.S. He highlights the improved financial opportunities and infrastructure available in the U.S. that motivated his decision to stay. He emphasizes the importance of strategic planning for those considering emigration, particularly in fields like healthcare, tech, and education. When I first considered leaving Nigeria for the United States, I knew it wouldn't be a straightforward journey, especially with a degree from a Nigerian university. The shift into counseling stemmed from a passion for supporting immigrant and Black youth. Teaching in the US offered better financial opportunities and professional growth compared to Nigeria. While returning to Africa is considered, systemic challenges with credential recognition and mental health infrastructure remain. I studied Education and English at the University of Uyo, and while I was proud of my training and my years of teaching in Akwa Ibom, I also knew that the global job market wouldn't automatically see my degree the way I did. The first hurdle was evaluation. I had to get my transcript assessed by a credential evaluation agency here in the U.S., and even though it was eventually recognized as equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree, the process was both expensive and frustrating. Between gathering documents from my alma mater (with the usual delays), paying the evaluation fees, and navigating visa requirements, I can say that the emotional stress was as real as the financial cost. Coming to the U.S., what helped me was the discipline and patience I'd built over the years back in Nigeria. Classroom management is a universal language, and whether you're in Ikot Ekpene or Atlanta, children need structure, attention, and a sense of safety. Financial breakthrough Financially, the difference was almost like night and day. As a teacher in Nigeria, even with over a decade of experience, my salary could barely sustain a modest lifestyle. In the U.S., once I got certified, the starting salary was almost triple what I earned back home. Of course, the cost of living is higher, and bills pile up quickly here, but even with that, the opportunity to save, invest, and build credit made the move worthwhile. The salary was definitely a major factor in my decision to stay—it gave me the breathing room to support my family back home and plan long-term for my own children's future. Transitioning from teaching to counseling Transitioning into counseling came naturally. As a teacher, I always gravitated toward the emotional and psychological well-being of my students. I saw the need, especially among immigrant children and Black youth. I went back to school and acquired more training in counselling, which gave me greater leverage in advancing my career. Would I consider returning to Africa to work in a similar capacity? Yes, and no. Yes, because the need is great, especially in terms of mental health awareness and support systems for young people. But I know the reality—most African systems don't yet recognize U.S. counseling credentials without jumping through hoops. I'd likely need to do a local conversion program or pass certain licensure exams. Also, infrastructure and funding for such roles back home are still catching up. So, while I may consult or volunteer from time to time, I haven't fully committed to returning just yet. What intending migrants should know When it comes to African emigration, I have mixed feelings. On one hand, I believe it's a viable and often necessary route for personal and professional growth—especially when systems at home don't provide fair reward for talent or effort. But I also worry about brain drain and the slow decay of essential services in our countries when the best minds leave. My advice to those considering emigration is simple: come with a plan. Don't come on vibes. Evaluate your credentials, research your field, and have both short-term survival goals and long-term career goals. It's not easy, and it's not always rosy, but it can be worth it if you approach it with intention and discipline. In terms of qualifications that travel well, healthcare remains number one—nurses, doctors, physical therapists, and lab scientists are always in demand. Tech, of course, is booming—whether it's data science, cybersecurity, or software development. Education is also valuable, especially special education and STEM teaching roles. Looking back, I'd say it was definitely easier to move when I did. The immigration climate has become more restrictive, and visa approval is more uncertain now.

Hong Kong Airlines Celebrates Inaugural Flight to Sydney
Offering Travellers More Direct Flight Options to Australia HONG KONG, June 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hong Kong Airlines' inaugural flight between Hong Kong and Sydney, Australia, departed yesterday, making it the second local airline to operate this route and providing greater travel options for business, leisure, and transit passengers. To mark this new milestone in its network expansion, Hong Kong Airlines held celebratory events at both Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) and Sydney Airport (SYD). Prior to departure, a launch ceremony was held at the boarding gate of the HKIA. The event was attended by distinguished guests, including Mr Jeff Sun, President of Hong Kong Airlines; Mr Ian McGraw from the Australian Consulate-General in Hong Kong; Ms Carmen Tam and Ms Vivien Yuen from Tourism Australia; Ms Jennifer Tung from Destination New South Wales; and Mr Ricky Chong from Airport Authority Hong Kong. The guests interacted with passengers and presented them with bespoke souvenirs to commemorate the historic occasion. During the event, Hong Kong Airlines President Mr Jeff Sun stated: "As a full-service local carrier, the launch of our Sydney service marks a significant step in our transformation to an international airline. Sydney is not only a popular destination for leisure and business travel but also one of Australia's most vital economic hubs. The expansion of the bilateral traffic rights agreement allows us to offer more choice to travellers in both cities, strengthening the connection between them." He added, "While Hong Kong Airlines may be a younger brand in the mature Australian market, we are endeavouring in our commitment to providing quality service. We operate this route with our Airbus A330 aircraft, featuring comfortable business and economy class cabins, and strive to deliver a passenger-centric in-flight experience through attentive service and fine dining for our long-haul customers." Sydney Airport CEO Mr Scott Charlton said: "We're proud to welcome Hong Kong Airlines to Sydney as our 52nd airline partner with its strong reputation for service excellence, efficiency and value. This inaugural service comes on the back of the first expansion in bilateral air traffic rights between Australia and Hong Kong in 19 years and we thank the Albanese Federal Government for its role in enabling this important agreement, which reflects the strength of our longstanding cultural and economic ties." NSW Minister for Jobs and Tourism Steve Kamper, said: "Hong Kong is a priority international market for NSW, with incoming travellers contributing substantially to the NSW visitor economy. The Minns Labor Government has made it very clear; we want to grow our visitor economy and the best way to do this is by increasing airline capacity and unlocking new international markets for NSW. We've set our sights on increasing the state's aviation capacity by 8.5 million seats, and this new Hong Kong route will complement other new routes we're securing as we work towards landing this goal." Mr Wang Yu, Consul General of People's Republic of China (Sydney), said: "As the second Hong Kong-based airline to operate the Hong Kong–Sydney route, Hong Kong Airlines not only provides a convenient new option for traveling between China and Australia, but also contributes to enhanced exchanges among students, tourists, business professionals and friends from all walks of life. This new service will strengthen Hong Kong and Sydney's role as vital gateways for the flow of people and goods, injecting fresh momentum into the economic and cultural ties between China and Australia. Its launch will also attract more international travelers to transit through Hong Kong or Sydney, further strengthening both cities' positions as global aviation hubs and creating new opportunities for trade and investment. Looking ahead, the Consulate-General of China in Sydney will continue to encourage and support airlines from both China and Australia in restoring or launching new routes based on the principle of mutual benefit and win-win cooperation. We believe that Hong Kong Airlines will continuously enhance its service quality and showcase a good corporate image." Also in attendance at the Sydney welcome ceremony were representatives from the Consulate-General of the People's Republic of China in Sydney, Destination NSW and the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office (Sydney). Exclusive Lounge Access for Connecting Passengers To celebrate the launch of the new service, passengers travelling on this route and transit at Hong Kong for selected Hong Kong Airlines flights* to Vancouver, Bali, Tokyo, Osaka, Fukuoka, Shanghai (Pudong), Haikou, or Sanya, between 20 June and 31 October 2025, will receive complimentary access to the airline's flagship lounge "Club Autus" at Hong Kong International Airport. *Please click here for the relevant terms and conditions.

This further underscores Hong Kong Airlines' commitment and contribution to the aviation industry's recovery and long-term development.

'White Lotus' star Jason Isaacs reflected on managing money 'immaturely.' A financial planner breaks down how to avoid doing the same.
For a movie star, Jason Isaacs says his financial situation isn't what you'd expect. "People will think I have huge stockpiles of money," the "White Lotus" star told Vulture in an interview published on June 16. "But sadly, what I've done rather immaturely is expand my outgoings to match my incomings and pretty much spent everything I've earned over the years." The English actor has more than 168 credits on IMDB dating back to 1988, including iconic roles such as Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter film adaptations and Col. William Tavington in the 2000 hit "The Patriot." But while Isaacs has long enjoyed a high-powered and lucrative career — Business Insider previously reported he, and every other top-billed actor on the show, earned $40,000 per episode of "White Lotus" — his admission is indicative of a common financial misstep that plagues high-earners: lifestyle creep. "It's really common to have lifestyle creep, and it's basically this phenomenon: When you earn more money, you spend more money," Robert Persichitte, a certified financial planner, told Business Insider. "People will see extra money in their bank account, and then they'll spend it, and then they get used to it, and it gets kind of locked into your lifestyle — and it becomes really, really difficult to get out of it." Representatives for Isaacs did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider. 'Do you want to be rich, or do you want to be wealthy?' Lifestyle creep is most insidious when you begin spending your extra income on big-ticket items like expensive cars, fancy homes, or recurring subscription expenses like gym memberships, Persichitte said. That's not to say more modest luxuries like spa services or a trendy wardrobe can't add up, but he said those types of transactions are easier to stop splurging on if your financial situation changes. "It's a very common scenario: You get somebody who has their first high-paying job, and they get excited, they go out and spend it, and then about six months later, they realize they hate that high-paying job," Persichitte said. "If you bought a new car or bought a new house, that is a very, very difficult decision to walk back." Isaacs is far from the only celebrity to experience a problem with lifestyle creep. Al Pacino, in his 2024 autobiography, said he went from a $50 million fortune to "broke" because he didn't control his spending. Other stars — from Michael Jackson to Mike Tyson — have also racked up tremendous amounts of debt despite having multimillion-dollar incomes. While it may be tempting to adopt a more lavish lifestyle or emulate your favorite celebrity's spending habits if you receive a promotion or financial windfall, Persichitte cautions against it. Persichitte recalled a 2008 Time interview with Flo Rida, in which the rapper said mogul Rick Ross advised that, in order to make more money, Flo Rida should spend "with the confidence of someone who knows he's going to make a lot more." "I wouldn't recommend that," Persichitte said. "And the logic to me is: Do you want to be rich, or do you want to be wealthy?" The difference is that a rich person's financial situation hinges on their next paycheck, which means a job loss or emergency or an impending prison sentence — which was likely in the future for Isaacs' character in "White Lotus" — could make it all crumble. In comparison, Persichitte said, a wealthy person has long-term stability because they've prioritized sound investments that allow them more control over their finances. The easiest way to avoid lifestyle creep is to have a plan for your money so it's not just sitting in your bank account, Persichitte said. Whether that be a 401(k) or locking some portion of your funds away in a CD account, nearly anything is better than having your liquid cash available in your checking account — but "the more invisible, the better," he added. "The further away you can keep that money from the checking account, the less likely you are going to have that lifestyle creep," Persichitte said. "If your net pay doesn't go up, you don't feel rich, and you don't feel the need to spend." Speaking to Vulture, Isaacs said that he has turned down multiple roles over the years that would have offered him a more substantial nest egg to lean back on. While he said he doesn't regret the moves "careerwise or artistically," he acknowledged it is a financial sore spot for him. "There's a number of things I could have done over the years that would've made me rich," Isaacs said. "And now that I'm toward the autumn of my career, I think maybe I'm an idiot and I should have done some of those things and just banked it, because other people do."
