I mean those workstations are US government property and if it has been agreed that the MND should pay for its use, the MND should pay its fair share instead of bickering over money that can be considered as spare change in terms of the MND budget, and making a fool out of itself to boot. If they don't like it, I guess they can build their own system, of course that would be more expensive than the USD 7 million that the USFK wants the MND to pay, and take two ~ three years to develop. Which is not exactly a good situation, considering the ROK's operational command transfer on 2012. That's probably why the MND is meeting the USFK halfway by increasing the funds allocated for computer use from the current 3.5 million USD to 5.1 million USD. As for the third news item, how come no stories about banging?
