Min Hyung-bae Preliminary Candidate's Pledge for a 'Nation No One Can Shake'
[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Yoon Jamin] Min Hyung-bae, a preliminary candidate of the Democratic Party for the National Assembly election in Gwangsan-gu (Eul), Gwangju Metropolitan City, pledged three major promises on the 13th for a "nation that no one can shake."
The three major promises presented by candidate Min are "a working National Assembly," "thorough eradication of deep-rooted evils," and "recreation of a democratic regime."
Candidate Min stated, "For productive politics, I will create a working National Assembly through ▲ salary cuts and disciplinary actions against National Assembly members who disrupt the Assembly or do not attend plenary sessions ▲ permanent establishment of the Ethics Committee, introduction of an external jury system, and simplification of the national recall requirements ▲ a three-year appointment ban to standing committees related to previously worked institutions ▲ institutionalization to prevent abuse of parliamentary immunity ▲ and strengthening of the National Assembly Advancement Act."
Additionally, to achieve "thorough eradication of deep-rooted evils and recreation of a democratic regime," he promised ▲ recovery of domestic and overseas assets gained through illicit wealth and criminal proceeds by Lee Myung-bak, Park Geun-hye, Choi Soon-sil, and others ▲ legislative and institutional reforms to place unchecked powers such as the courts, prosecution, and National Intelligence Service under public control ▲ and strengthening diplomatic capabilities to surpass Japan and engage equally with the United States and neighboring major powers.

Candidate Min said, "The deep-rooted evils are the Lee Myung-bak and Park Geun-hye groups who used state power for personal gain, and the forces that glorify pro-Japanese collaborators and repeatedly make defamatory remarks about the May 18 Gwangju Democratization Movement," adding, "If these deep-rooted evils are thoroughly eradicated, the Republic of Korea can leap forward as the world's best nation."
