On the Scene: The Vice President in Asia

Harris’s plans to visit the DMZ broke on Tuesday. 

I had also asked her if she planned to mention gender equity concerns to President Yoon Suk Yeol of South Korea. The country has the highest gender-wage gap among wealthy nations, and less than one-fifth of its national lawmakers are women.

Harris said she would raise the issue not just in the private sector but in Yoon’s administration.
