[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Former lawmaker Ahn Cheol-soo stated on the 6th regarding the formation of a competitive structure due to the integration push by the Bareunmirae Party, "We think the more competition there is, the better," adding, "Wouldn't it attract the interest of many citizens?"

On the same day, after visiting the Korean Medical Association in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, and meeting with executives, former lawmaker Ahn told reporters, "What we aim for is to maximize the interests of the people," and said, "Politics that works properly is necessary. That is the political paradigm toward practical politics that we envision."

Concerning the novel coronavirus infection, former lawmaker Ahn argued, "Even if thorough quarantine is conducted for those who have already entered Korea, if the inflow continues, it will be difficult to cope any longer," and insisted, "A temporary entry ban should be implemented not only for the Wuhan area but across the entire China."

Former lawmaker Ahn emphasized, "It is necessary for the Prime Minister to take responsibility and respond across all government ministries. The crisis alert level should be raised to the serious stage."
