[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Sohn Hak-kyu, the Standing Election Committee Chairman of the Minsheng Party, appealed on the 2nd, the day official election campaigning for the April 15 general election began, saying, "Our Minsheng Party will move forward on the path to victory in this election solely to protect the livelihood of the people," and urged, "Do not vote for the first or second party. Please vote for our Minsheng Party, the third party."

Chairman Sohn and Co-Chairman Kim Jeong-hwa held the 'Only Livelihood' election committee launch ceremony at midnight at the Garak Agricultural and Marine Products Wholesale Market in Songpa-gu, Seoul.

Chairman Sohn criticized, "Not only the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) crisis but also under the Moon Jae-in administration, the livelihoods of self-employed people, small business owners, and ordinary citizens have been ruined," adding, "Livelihood has been destroyed by economic policies biased solely toward ideology, such as income-led growth, the sharp increase in the minimum wage, and the 52-hour workweek."

He sharply criticized the Democratic Party of Korea and the United Future Party, saying, "The first party ruined the economy like this and created disguised proportional representation parties just to win the election," and "What did the second party do? They stayed up all night only for regime struggles and turned this country's politics into plant politics and animal politics."

The Minsheng Party election committee will begin election campaigning from the morning by visiting Gwangju, the party's support base. They will start with the May 18 Democratic Cemetery in Gwangju and hold the Gwangju City Party election committee launch ceremony. Afterwards, they plan to sequentially visit the campaign offices of local constituency candidates.
