The present approach is based on the evaluation of the hadronic matrix elements of the \mbox{$ΔS =1$} effective quark lagrangian by means of the chiral quark model, with the inclusion of meson one-loop renormalization and NLO Wilson coefficients. The estimate here reviewed is fully consistent with the $ΔI =1/2$ selection rule in $K\to ππ$ decays, which is well reproduced within the same framework.12 pages, uuencoded LATEX2e file including 4 eps figures.
