Record-breaking South Korea filibuster runs beyond 100 hours

By REUTERS
SEOUL - South Korean opposition lawmakers seeking to block a government-backed "anti-terrorism" bill pushed their record-breaking filibuster into a sixth straight day of speeches in the parliamentary chamber on Sunday.
The filibuster began on Tuesday and had continued around the clock for more than 115 hours by Sunday afternoon, making it the world's longest, according to the Kyunghyang Shinmun newspaper.
The marathon filibuster easily surpassed a 58-hour session by 103 members of Canada's New Democratic Party in 2011.
