[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Kim Jong-in, the General Election Committee Chairman of the Future United Party, who visited Gwangjin-eul in Seoul, criticized Lee In-young, the floor leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, for saying the day before that "if candidate Go Min-jeong is elected, 100% of the emergency disaster relief funds will be given to all citizens," calling it "nonsense."

On the 14th, Kim visited Gwangjin-eul in Seoul and said, "I heard the day before yesterday that 'Tandoli' came to support 'Kodoli'."

Tandoli is a term referring to first-term lawmakers who entered the National Assembly in large numbers due to the backlash against the impeachment of President Roh Moo-hyun in 2004. The Tandoli Kim referred to is floor leader Lee, and Kodoli refers to candidate Go. Kim said, "It seems they said that if Kodoli is elected, they will give money to all citizens, but if Kodoli is not elected, they will only give 70%. How unreasonable do you think this statement is?"

He explained, "This is the level of our country's Tandoli now. After all, the Tandoli entered the National Assembly in large numbers in 2004 and ruined that government. Recently, under the pretext of the coronavirus, many Kodoli have appeared in the parliamentary elections; these are assault troops from the Blue House."

Kim pointed out, "What will these assault troops do if they enter the National Assembly? Looking at the 20th National Assembly members of the Democratic Party of Korea, they all act as mere rubber stamps. If these assault troops join them, the National Assembly will become powerless and achieve nothing."

Regarding COVID-19, he also mentioned that testing of confirmed cases is being blocked. Kim said, "Many doctors have recently told me that testing of confirmed cases itself is being blocked. They want to reduce the number of confirmed cases at least until the election to make it look like the COVID-19 issue was handled very well."

Kim emphasized, "Tomorrow's general election is a vote where the people themselves decide whether they live or die. Be aware that the serious situation of this country is unfolding. This government has no ability to solve the economic corona that will come after the COVID-19 crisis is over."
