  37. What is more important, several amendments are in preparation and
  38. have advanced through the voting process. Of particular interest
  39. is amendment 5, which completely redefines the Hangul (Korean)
  40. composed syllables. It is the first, last, and only (so everybody
  41. assures) case that things actually have been moved around.
