(15 Apr 1988) QUOTE REF    SOUTH KOREA: Former President Chun Doo Hwan quits his
GS18048813   remaining public official posts, accepting moral
18.4.88      responsibility for the actions of his younger brother, Chun
             Kyung Hwan, currently awaiting trial on charges of
             embezzlement, bribery and corruption. Students demonstrate
             opposition to anti-labour stance of government, burning
             effigies of President Roh Tae Woo whom the students claim is
             Chun Doo Hwan's hand-picked replacement. The students later
             clashed with riot police, throwing molotov cocktails, only to
             be dispersed by riot police using tear gas.
