Date Posted:06:05:48 07/09/04 Fri Author: Chris Subject: ISMF - a new front UBF group
Peter Chang has meanwhile established a fully-fledged "front group" called ISMF.
(Front groups are one characteristic of cults and abusive groups, see here).
He is carefully camouflaging the connection with UBF.
Many Korean parents (not only in UBF) feel a big problems since their children do not want to accept the traditional Confucianist mindset. The "re-education" of 2nd gen Koreans in Germany (there are about 30.000 Koreans in Germany!) seems to be a gap in the market, and Peter Chang advertizes himself as the solution. UBF Koreans are already sending their children into his "education camp," and paying money for these reeducation cures. The concept of education children to be obedient and diligent by use of an orchestra stems already from Samuel Lee, by the way.
It is highly ironic that Peter Chang now enters the market of child education after having been exposed in German newspapers because of child abuse and child neglect in Bonn UBF.
2nd gen UBF front groups seem to be en vogue in Germany anyway since about 2 years. The youth organization of UBF is called JBF, the CMI ("Reform-UBF") 2nd gens call themselves JA!Christ. However, these youth organization do not camouflage their connection to UBF as the ISMF does. There is no mention of UBF on their homepage, nor in the various advertizement articles for ISMF published in newspapers for Koreans in Europe. They describe themselves as a cultural organization only. The name UBF or "world capmus mission" or other UBF goals are shamefully hidden.
UBF is indeed much of an undercover-ministry. They like to operate behind the curtains and hide their identity, just as the anonymous UBFers who sporadically post on this forum. Shame on Bonn UBF. They always claim they do everything for the honor of God and for world mission. Where do I see world mission on the ISMF homepage?
