don't you think the US will step it and supply more of a bailout to prevent China and Hong Kong from joining the deflation party? If they join,that might be a party to end all parties...

WJ - S. Korea got another few $bill from the World Bank yesterday. Unlike most World Bank disbursements, the payment wasn't earmarked for a particular project, but instead was to be used "as S. Korea saw fit." At the same time, S. Korea met with a consortium of bankers to explain the "full extent" of their debt crisis "for the first time.". Both these stories suggest S. Korea is on the verge of default any day. As the sources for immediate cash seem to be exhausted, looks as though some debt re-negotiation is now unavoidable.
