                  South Korea Proposes Regular Family Reunions

   South Korean President Park Geun-hye has proposed to North Korea that
   the rivals hold regularly-scheduled reunions of families separated by
   the Korean War.
   In a speech Saturday marking the 95th anniversary of Korea`s
   independence from Japanese colonialization, Ms. Park said that regular
   family reunions should be held because time is running out for the
   elderly people separated by politics and the early 1950`s war.
   The two Koreas ended a six-day reunion of families on Tuesday at the
   North`s Mount Kumgang resort. It was the first reunion in more than
   three years.
   There have been several reunions since they first began in 1985, but
   they have fluctuated depending on the state of Korean relations.
