[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Lee Dong-seop, Acting Floor Leader of the Bareunmirae Party, on the 4th requested party leader Sohn Hak-kyu to "immediately expel the proportional representation members who joined Ahn Cheol-soo's new party and are engaging in disloyal acts."

At the floor countermeasure meeting held at the National Assembly that day, Lee said, "Ahn Cheol-soo's new party is making its best efforts to respond to the people and the demands of the times by working on the party's establishment."

Lee pointed out, "The number of deaths from the novel coronavirus (Wuhan pneumonia) in China has exceeded 400, and confirmed cases have surpassed 20,000," adding, "While our government hesitates, watching China, countries around the world are implementing quarantine measures such as suspending flights and closing borders."

Lee said, "It is not too late even now," and added, "We must immediately ban entry and raise the infectious disease crisis alert to the serious level."
