[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Former Bareunmirae Party lawmaker Ahn Cheol-soo has continued his 'economic activities' day after day, following his first statement upon returning to Korea emphasizing the value of fairness. He has begun to take a firm stance in opposition by targeting the Moon Jae-in administration's job policies and the skyrocketing real estate prices.

On the 23rd, former lawmaker Ahn visited the KAIST AI Graduate School in Daejeon to seek policy alternatives to strengthen South Korea's artificial intelligence (AI) competitiveness. The KAIST AI Graduate School is one of the top three AI graduate schools in Korea, selected for the first time last year by the Ministry of Science and ICT.

Recently, in his book "Our Thoughts Create the Future," former lawmaker Ahn mentioned that AI will determine our entire lives and national competitiveness, and discussed the role of working politics in creating future industries and jobs.

On the morning of the 22nd, former lawmaker Ahn visited the Citizens' Coalition for Economic Justice to exchange views on the soaring real estate prices and the deterioration of government fiscal soundness. Immediately after the meeting, he launched sharp criticism at the Moon Jae-in administration. Ahn said, "It is a government with three nos (無): no ability, no democracy, and no fairness," adding, "I think it is an unprecedentedly incompetent government, probably because they have no social experience, especially in economic matters, they seem like amateurs."

As a solution to the real estate problem, he proposed the introduction of a 'price ceiling system for pre-sale prices.' Ahn stated, "Real estate speculation for unearned income is the road to national ruin. The government should not postpone changes until after the election but implement policies that can be executed now," and added, "The government is delaying the introduction of the price ceiling system for pre-sale prices until after the election, but it should be introduced quickly."

In the afternoon of the same day, former lawmaker Ahn visited the Youth Startup Academy located in Ansan, Gyeonggi Province, and held a meeting with young entrepreneurs. When a young entrepreneur expressed difficulties due to regulations, Ahn said, "Our country also needs to shift toward abolishing regulations and strengthening monitoring and punishment," adding, "That is the direction I want the party I aim to create in the 21st general election to take."
