South Korea to hold elections May 9
South Korea
Seoul - Arab Today
South Korea will hold an election on May 9 to choose a successor for ousted President Park Geun-hye, Yonhap news agency reported.
The Constitutional Court ruled Friday to formally end Park's presidency over a huge political scandal involving her and her longtime confidante.
By law, South Korea must hold a national vote to find her successor within two months of the ruling.
Moon Jae-in, a liberal opposition leader who lost the 2012 presidential election to Park, is the favorite to be the country's next leader in opinion surveys.

The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
