This is the first news today (29th) that happened in South Africa. In South Africa, a video of a school bus driver leaving the steering wheel to a student was filmed and released on social media. Controversy is occurring.
This video was filmed in Eastern Cape, South Africa.
A girl in a school uniform is driving while holding a large steering wheel, and next to it is a man with a beer bottle in his hand.
Seeing that a man sometimes teaches a student how to travel, it seems like he is training on the road, but it turns out that this man is a driver of a school bus, and the student who caught the steering wheel was a high school student riding this bus.
Of course the student did not even have a driver's license.
The Eastern Cape State Department of Education, upon hearing the video in question, warned strongly that the lives of the students commuting to school on the bus were in danger and should not happen again.
On the other hand, the same state Department of Transportation raised the controversy by saying that the driver was not driving while drinking, so it was not a criminal act.
After signing a contract with the Ministry of Education and driving school buses in eight schools, the bus driver is said to have been suspended.

I don't know what the story is behind, but it seems to be an act that I can't understand.
What about the next news?
<Ko Hyun-jun / Current Affairs Critic>
Recently, there is growing concern about the re-proliferation of the world due to Corona 19, and in one of these cases, disputes on wearing masks continue.
There was even a situation in which passengers literally wrestled with masks on American aircraft.
Several passengers come out to the aisle of the airliner and fight with fists.
It's not seen as an American airliner landing in Puerto Rico in the Caribbean on the 25th local time. A man asked a woman with a mask on her chin to wear it properly, but it was a melee.
The woman got up from her seat, yelled at the man, ran into it, and came out to the hallway where the crew had been intercepted and swung her fists.
Afterwards, as the group joined the group, it quickly became a mess, and this commotion calmed down after the police dispatched to the plane fired a Taser gun at a woman and then handcuffed it.
Puerto Rican police detained women and set bail at $150,000 and US$170 million.
Since June, major U.S. airlines have been obligated to wear masks on board to prevent the spread of Corona 19.

Same as last time, and this seems to be happening frequently, especially on planes to the US.
What about the next news?
<Ko Hyun-jun/Sisa Critic> It's a
prison story, where prisoners can sing and play games at karaoke. You might think that this is a foreign story, but it's a story of a domestic prison, Jeonju prison in Jeonbuk.
Jeonju Prison said yesterday that it opened a'mind and body healing room' to relieve stress in prisoners.
There is a karaoke room equipped with lighting and sound equipment, a mole-catching game console, and a counseling room.
Karaoke can be used for up to an hour upon request, and it is said that priority is given to prisoners who are subject to high imprisonment stress such as death row sentences or self-injury.
Jeonju Prison was the first in the country to have karaoke rooms and game consoles installed in the prison.The prison side explained that he installed a healing room while considering the provision of facilities in consideration of prisoners in a situation where correction or religious events were restricted due to Corona 19.
However, opinions of citizens are mixed.
The opinions that'even if a crime is committed, it is necessary to guarantee human rights' and'excessive consideration for those who have suffered others' are confronting, and Jeonju Prison said that it will operate the facility to meet the purpose of correction.
