	Digital Chosunilbo (English Edition) : Daily News in English About Korea
		The prosecutors' investigation of the Hanbo scandal is in full swing but the central points of the case have not been revealed.
		Of course, the irregularities of those who received customary bribes is not permissible but the investigation should be focussed on the whereabouts of the so-called lobbying fund of Hanbo and to what channel it flowed to and the function of the behind force in the whole procedure.
		However, in either case, it might indicate that the Hanbo scandal is directly related to the body and not the "feather" and that the amount of money involved is huge.

		A combination of massive debt and the recession drove Hanbo to the brink of bankruptcy as early as the second quarter of 1996.
		But the Hanbo collapse did not immediately result in a full-scale crisis because the company was relatively small and people expected the Korean economy to weather its bankruptcy.

		Although hanbo literally means "half staff," I suppose the term could be used to mean "shorter-than-standard staff." I've never seen a four-foot staff called a hanbo though.

	Bojutsu: The Staff and Stick Arts of Hontai Yoshin Ryu Jujutsu
		One has the impression, perhaps because of the hanbo's more practical length and size (it is commonly referred to as a suteki, or "walking stick"), that the hanbo is a more "living" weapon-with direct street-applicability-than the other traditional weapons, and its practice is more typified by innovations.
		Characteristic of the hanbo kata is evasion of the sword blow, and sharp strikes to head or sword, and thrusts to the attacker's body (see photo 4).
		The former ends with the hanbo being used to lever the attacker's right arm with an immobilizing elbow lock (see photo 5), and the latter, once the hanbo is used to trap the sword hand from actually drawing the blade, has the hanbo wielder close in behind the swordsman with a partial choke hold.

	Kukishin Ryu Hanbo
		It is Kuriyama Ukon who devised the use of Hanbo, a ninety centimeters long staff and introduced it into Kukishin Ryu in the Azuchi-Momoyama period.
		In fact, elements of spear or long staff techniques, which are thought to be the archetype of Hanbo, stay at a superficial level in Hanbo techniques.
		It is conceivable that Hanbo had a supplementary character in Kukishin Ryu at first, given that the volume of Hanbou was regarded as a volume supplement to Bojutsu- Hihouhennomaki in Amatsutatarahibun-kaidokuhen and there was no short poem regarding the secret of the techniques listed on the text.

		Hanbo Steel, which has production lines for hot- and cold-rolled coil, and high-end steel product for cars, has been desperate to find a buyer since the company collapsed under $4.4 billion of debt in 1997 and has been under court receivership.
		Several previous attempts to sell Hanbo have failed, but a booming steel industry driven by voracious demand from China seems likely to drum up more interest in the auction this time around.
		It was not immediately clear what a bidder might be prepared to pay, but a $377 million deal to sell the failed steel maker to a local financial firm, AK Capital LLC, fell through last year when the bidder failed to pay.
