| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the Global Anti-Golf Movement (GAG'M) and its founder, Gen Morita. The group is focused mainly in Asia and Oceana. The group also founded World No-Golf Day. GAG'M's main goals are "an immediate moratorium on all course development; laws prohibiting advertising and promotion of courses and golf tourism; children and youths should not be enticed to adopt the elitist and unsustainable lifestyle of golfers, e.g. by introducing golf learning facilities at schools and universities; measures to improve working conditions of golf course workers, who are often exploited as cheap labourers and exposed to health risks...and to protect women caddies from sexual harassments by male golfers; the return of existing courses to public parks, or rehabilitation and regeneration of the land to its natural state." |
