South Korean net users, many of whom experienced military regime's rule back in 1980, have expressed great interest to Mubarak's address today. Korean Tweeters, such as @brokerlee, introduced a new urban slang ‘Mubaraktic'(rough translation)[ko], to describe someone who ‘cant take a hint’ and ‘tightly clings to chair(:power)'.

    Prime Minister from Dominica is mubaraktic too. He got into power by violating the constitution and wants to remain until 2050. He goes to court in a few hours for becoming PM as a dual citizen which is against our laws in Dominica. His best friends are Chavez, Castro and Gaddafi; as well as Peter Wirkham who has sold him out to the CIA.
