Korea 3rd best place to do business in Asia

I just had this talk with a friend earlier today who just started managing his own business here in Korea. He said I won't be seeing him for a month because he will fly to California next week for a training. The good thing is, it's an all-expense paid trip by the Korean government for start ups. So when I read this article on koreatimes.co.kr, I can see that Korea is really doing something to make the country a better place to do business
Here's the article
Korea is the eighth best country in which to run a business, according to an annual report by the World Bank Thursday. It marked the first time the country made the top 10 of the World Bank’s ``Doing Business’’ study, leaping eight spots from last year’s 16th place thanks to positive reviews on government efforts to weed out bureaucratic inefficiency.
