Waching daily Dec 22 2017

The U.S. has introduced a new draft resolution at the UN Security Council… proposing further

sanctions on North Korea.

The vote on the proposal will take place later on Friday,… and China and Russia are not

expected to use their vetoes.

Kwon Jang-ho has this report.

The UN Security Council will vote Friday, local time on a new U.S.-led draft resolution

on North Korea, that has been introduced in reaction to the regime's latest ballistic

missile test in late November.

According to Reuters and AFP, the new resolution will look to ban nearly 90 percent of refined

petroleum product exports to North Korea by capping them at 500-thousand barrels a year...

building on the previous resolution in September that set a limit of 2 million barrels.

Crude oil exports to the regime have also been capped at four million barrels a year.

And all North Korean nationals working overseas would also have to be repatriated within twelve

months.

The list of banned North Korean exports would also be extended to include food products,

machinery, and electrical equipment, as well as certain stones and minerals.

19 individuals and firms would be added to a growing international blacklist as well,

freezing their financial assets and imposing a travel ban.

North Korea's closest ally, China, is not expected to use its veto, after the U.S. negotiated

the draft with Beijing over the past week.

Although it does not include a complete ban on oil, as suggested by President Trump to

President Xi Jinping last month, China's go-ahead would still be seen as a significant measure.

More-so as China has not yet approved a different proposal by the U.S.

Washington had asked the council to blacklist 10 ships, including two Hong Kong-flagged

vessels and a Chinese tugboat, which are said to be carrying banned oil and coal products

to and from North Korea.

China and Russia have requested more time to examine that proposal, and the decision

for approval to blacklist the ships will now take place on December 28th.

Apple faces backlash over slowing down older iPhones - Duration: 0:42.

If you own an iPhone then some bad news I'm afraid.

After years of head scratching and speculation as to why older models were becoming slower,

Apple has finally admitted to being the culprit.

This has not gone down well with users, with some accusing the tech giant of deliberately

slowing down older devices to push them to buy newer models.

Others have complained about the firm's lack of transparency.

But, Apple insists it's a necessary "feature" to prolong the life of aging batteries and

prevent random shut downs.

However, some users are still unconvinced and have suggested they may switch to Apple's

arch rival Samsung.

128 countries at UN condemn Trump's Jerusalem decision - Duration: 2:10.

The UN General Assembly has overwhelmingly backed a resolution calling for U.S. President

Donald Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital to be withdrawn.

Thursday's vote came despite warnings from the U.S. to pull funding from the world body.

Ro Aram reports.

Widespread defiance of President Trump's declaration on Jerusalem was already apparent at Monday's

UN Security Council meeting when all other nations apart from the U.S. backed a resolution

calling on Trump to rescind his move.

That was eventually vetoed by America and therefore didn't get adopted.

That sparked the Palestinians and their Arab and Islamic supporters to seek Thursday's

General Assembly vote.

Results were 128 in favor, nine against and 35 abstentions.

The vote came despite warnings from the U.S. ambassador that Washington was willing to

sever its hefty funding to the world body.

(English) AP - 7002294 / 1 "When we make generous contributions to the

UN, we also have a legitimate expectation that our good will is recognized and respected.

When a nation is singled out for attack in this organization, that nation is disrespected.

What's more, that nation is asked to pay for the "privilege" of being disrespected.

Haley said the U.S. will put its embassy in Jerusalem regardless of the vote.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also said afterward that he totally rejects

what he called the "preposterous" resolution.

But, he took the time to thank nations that chose to abstain.

Those who voted in favor included many U.S. aid recipients including Jordan and Egypt,

as well as many American allies.

President Trump's threat of cutting foreign aid had raised the stakes at Thursday's emergency

meeting and triggered accusations from Muslims of U.S. bullying, blackmail and intimidation.

Arab, Islamic and non-aligned nations rejected his warnings and urged a "yes" vote.

The non-binding resolution states that any decisions regarding the status of Jerusalem

are "null and void" and must be cancelled.

Korea makes final touches on Olympic preparation,.. - Duration: 2:45.

Korea is just weeks away... from hosting is first Olympic Games in three decades.

The organizing committee and others involved... are putting the final touches to be fully

prepared to play host to the global games.

Transport to the venues is ready... and upgrades to facilities are made to ensure athletes

and spectators are comfy and shielded from the cold.

Lee Ji-won reports.

With only 50 days left to go until the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics,.. Korea is putting

on its final touches... on 6-and-a-half years worth of preparations.

On Thursday, a ceremony was held to mark the launch... of the Gyeonggang high-speed KTX

rail line.

Extending the previous route to the eastern city of Gangneung,... the new line takes visitors

from Seoul... directly to the host cities of the 2018 Olympics in a much shorter time.

It normally took 3 to 6 hours,... depending on the mode of transportation, to get to Gangneung

from Seoul,... but the new line cuts the travel time to slightly under 2 hours.

(Korean) "The existing line went around the region

to get to Gangneung, but the new line goes right through the Taebaek Mountain Range."

And during the Olympic season, more trains will be running,.. not to mention the temporary

operation of trains from Incheon International Aiport straight to Pyeongchang and Gangneung.

The train will be officially opened to the public starting Friday.

Venues are also getting their final touches.

Jeongseon Alpine Centre, where one of the first Olympic events will be held, has completed

all of its construction and tests,... and now at the final stages of setting up the

fences, piling artificial snow and grooming the surface by January.

Now, while the construction of the Olympic Stadium, where the opening and closing ceremonies

will be held, was completed months ago,... the organizing committee is making improvements

in the facilities.

At a concert held at the stadium last month,.. a number of spectators suffered from hypothermia.

As fighting the cold has been one of the major concerns at next year's opening ceremony,...

the organizing committee will install heaters at corners and windshield.

(Korean- ) "We will build a transparent wall around the

inside of the stadium to block the wind from coming in without hindering the spectators'

view."

The committee also plans to distribute blankets, hot packs and other winter wears to keep the

spectators warm.

With the hardware for the Winter Games finalizing, the organizing committee is now focused on

boosting promotion and ticket sales... to get one step closer to successfully hosting

the country's first Olympics in 30 years.

SNS marketing on the rise in South Korea - Duration: 4:22.

Social media has exploded in popularity in recent years,... and now its fast becoming

the way to shop.

SNS marketing is Korea's fastest growing shopping platform, targeting customers with a personalized

approach, and creating a buzz through special offers and events.

Won Jung-hwan reports.

Social Network Services have become the fastest growing shopping platform, outperforming other

platforms like TV home shopping or internet shopping malls, and creating a buzz in South

Korea.

SNS is being used by firms, not just to share information about their products, but to also

sell their products directly, and promote them with special offers and events, like

one held last week through SNS involving over a thousand companies.

(KOREAN)

"The first edition of 12-12 day event was held to build consumer interest within the

SNS market and provide users with an opportunity to purchase quality products at a highly discounted

price."

SNS marketing uses social media platforms to connect consumers with products through

virtual communities, and allow firms to interact with customers and provide products tailored

to their needs.

The CEO of 'MONICA-ROOM', one of the first companies to use SNS marketing in Korea, says

that its big advantage over conventional marketing is the ability to adapt to customers' personalized

needs.

(KOREAN)

"We visit our customers' SNS pages, and we communicate with them as they receive our

news feeds.

If you compare SNS with general online shopping malls, SNS platforms can communicate one-on-one

with people, and this can lead to customized sales marketing to each individual"

Traditional online shopping platforms are often limited to 'telling' people what to

buy, with few mechanisms to obtain customer feedback.

But the open nature of SNS allows participants to share their views and feedback on brands,

products, and services.

(KOREAN)

"On traditional platforms, marketing is often viewed as brand-storytelling.

But now if you look at SNS marketing, it is more like 'brand-storydoing', meaning that

customers and viewers are actively taking part in selling a brand's products."

As customers can ask questions and voice their concerns directly to companies through social

media, they can make more informed purchasing decisions, leading to fewer returned products

or requests for refunds.

(KOREAN)

"As we continue posting reliable information, those who like our information visit our products'

websites.

And a relationship of trust between the buyer and seller forms within the online platform."

But there are also costs to marketing through SNS.

Since SNS is mostly about one-on-one communication, companies need to hire personnel to handle

social media interactions.

And the viral way information spreads through SNS doesn't always work in a company's favor...

(KOREAN)

"Since SNS marketing often engages through live platforms, any negative reviews or comments

regarding a company can suddenly spread to all those people who follow the company."

But at the same time, the 'live' nature of SNS can help create a positive buzz around

a product and drive social shopping among SNS users.

As followers of a product repost comments made by others, a small piece of marketing

can reach a large audience.

But companies can't sit back and be passive when it comes to social media.

(STANDUP)

"Nearly 2.5 billion people around the globe use some sort of social media.

But a large audience on social media does not always translate into strong sales figures.

The real key to success is increasing audience activity and engagement with the product"

SNS marketing is trying to break out from the sectors where it was first introduced,

like fashion and cosmetics.

Now it's possible to buy such varied items as agricultural products through social media

platforms.

By reducing distribution costs and allowing people to purchase fresh products, straight

from the source, SNS marketing is bringing convenience and efficiency to both companies

and consumers in South Korea.

Using the Element Visibility Trigger in Google Tag Manager - Duration: 4:54.

Hey there!

I'm Benjamin from Loves Data.

In this video I'm going to show you how you can use the element visibility trigger in

Google Tag Manager.

Using the element visibility trigger allows you to fire a tag, like a Google Analytics

event when a particular element is visible in a user's browser.

For example, if you have a promotion or other important element you want people to view,

like a form on a lead page, then you can track its visibility into Google Analytics with

the help of Google Tag Manager.

So let's look at the element visibility trigger!

Let's get started!

// The element visibility trigger lets you trigger a tag based on the element's ID or

the element's CSS selector.

Let's say I want to fire a tag every time someone scrolls to the bottom of my website

and views my email subscription form...

To begin I'm going to right click and select 'inspect' for the element.

I can see that the form is contained in a div and that the div has a class of 'newsletter

form body', so I can use this to configure the trigger.

Let's head to Google Tag Manager...

I'm going to use event tracking to track the visibility of the form into Google Analytics,

so let's select 'tags' and then add a new tag...

I'm going to name my tag 'email updates visible' and I'm going to select 'universal analytics'

as the tag type.

Now I'm going to select 'event' as the track type and enter the event category, action

and label.

You can use variables to dynamically pass the details of the element that is visible,

but for this example I'm going to keep things simple and hard-code the values for the event.

I'm going to set 'non-interaction hit' to 'true' which means that the event won't impact

the bounce rate for my page.

For example, by setting this to 'true' it means that someone who views a single page

and leaves my website will still be reported as a bounce, even if the event is sent to

Google Analytics.

Then I need to select my Google Analytics Settings variable.

Now it's time to configure the trigger...

I'm going to click the plus sign to add a new trigger...

And I'm going to name the trigger 'Email Updates Visible' and select 'element visibility' as

the trigger type.

Now I can select 'CSS selector' as the 'selection method' and enter the class for the div that

I found for my website.

I'm going to enter 'dot', since it's a CSS class, then 'newsletter form body'.

I only want the trigger to fire the tag once per page, so I'm going to leave the 'fire'

option to 'once per page'.

You can change this to 'every time an element appears on screen', which would mean the tag

will fire every time the element is visible.

I don't suggest using this as you can quickly reach the session hit limit for Google Analytics.

We can then select the percentage of the element that needs to be visible for the trigger to

fire.

I'm going to change this to one hundred percent.

I'm going to leave the other options as they are and save the trigger.

Now let's preview the container...

I'm going to head back to my website and reload the page...

I can now see in the debug console that my tag is firing when I scroll down the page

and one hundred percent of the form is visible in the browser.

That's it!

Now I can publish the container to my website.

// So that's how you can use the element visibility trigger in Google Tag Manager to fire a tag

when an element is visible in the browser.

All you need to do is identify the element on your website that you want to track, decide

what sort of tag you're going to use and then configure the trigger.

If you're going to send events to Google Analytics like I've covered in this example, remember

that you'll want to review how many events and other hits you're sending, since there

is a session hit limit with Google Analytics.

This is why you won't want to trigger the tag every time the element is visible on the

page - just trigger the tag once per page.

Are you using the element visibility trigger in Google Tag Manager?

I'd love to know!

Let me know in the comments below!

And if you found this video helpful, then please like it, so I know to make more videos

like this.

See you next time!

defunct Saenuri Party.

Large fire in Jecheon sports center kills at least 29 - Duration: 1:54.

At least 29 people have now been confirmed dead after a fire broke out on Thursday in

an eight-story commercial building in central Korea.

Flames ripped through the structure that housed a sauna, a gym and other recreational facilities.

The blaze has been put out,... but officials warn the number of casualties is likely to

rise.

The presidential office of Cheong Wa Dae says President Moon will travel to the site of

the disaster in the coming hours.

Park Hee-jun reports.

A fire broke out at a commercial building on Thursday in Jecheon, Chungcheongbuk-do

Province,... some 160 kilometers southeast of Seoul, leaving at least 29 people dead

and dozens more injured.

According to the local fire department, the blaze started at around 3:53 PM local time.

The cause of the fire is still unknown, but authorities say it is likely to have started

from the first floor of the 8-story building.

(Korean) "We are still looking into the cause of the

fire, but we believe that the fire started on the first level of the building's parking

lot.

The smoke is likely to have risen to the upper floors afterwards."

20 people were reported to have died in a public sauna facility located on the second

floor.

But details on the remaining deaths have not been identified yet.

The injured were moved to nearby hospitals, but according to officials, none of them seem

to have suffered life-threatening injuries.

President Moon Jae-in immediately ordered the Ministry of Public Administration and

Security,... to put maximum efforts into putting out the fire and preventing further casualties.

The prime minister's office and other government agencies are reportedly also working hard

to contain the situation.

Around 50 ambulances, two helicopters, 49 fire engines and trucks and 60 firefighters

were deployed to the site to contain the fire and carry out rescue missions.

Authorities say that the death toll is likely to increase as the rescue work continues.
