[YONHAP] The conservative People Power Party's (PPP) ethics committee decided Wednesday to suspend Daegu Mayor Hong Joon-pyo's party membership for 10 months over his recent golfing controversy. The disciplinary action came after Hong came under intense fire for playing golf earlier this month when the nation was struggling with torrential rains, flooding and landslides that left dozens dead or missing.
