I do think a Korean name is need to be present here. --Samuel 10:16 23 Jul 2003 (UTC)

I removed the following text because it came verbatim from http://www.who.int/dg/lee/en/index.html

He was nominated on 28 January, 2003 by the WHO's Executive Board for the post of Director-General of agency and elected to the post on 21 May by the Member States of WHO. The Director-General is WHO's chief technical and administrative officer.

Lee took office and started his five-year term as Director-General of WHO on 21 July 2003.

Lee received a Doctor of Medicine degree (M.D.) from Seoul National University and a Master of Public Health degree from the University of Hawaii.

He has worked at WHO, at country, regional and HQ level for 20 years in technical, managerial and policy positions, notably leading the fight against two of the greatest challenges to health and development: tuberculosis and vaccine preventable diseases of children. After heading the WHO Global Programme for Vaccines and Immunizations and serving as a Senior Policy Advisor, he became, in 2000, Director of Stop TB, a coalition of more than 250 international partners including WHO member states, donors, non-governmental organizations, industry and foundations. Dr. Lee speaks English, Korean and Japanese, and reads French and Chinese.
