[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Park Hee-eun] Lee Jae-myung, Governor of Gyeonggi Province, expressed his determination on the 23rd to realize a "world where people live without cheating and privileges" on the 11th anniversary of the late former President Roh Moo-hyun's passing.

On the morning of the same day, Lee attended the memorial service for former President Roh held in Bongha Village, Gimhae, Gyeongnam, and then posted a message on Facebook titled "Opening the Dream of a World Where People Live Together as One."

He said, "When a deep loneliness comes over me with no one on my side in the world, I think of your figure standing firm against any criticism and pressure."

He continued, "When faced with complex and difficult crossroads, I constantly ask myself what kind of judgment or decision you would have made."

Lee said, "'You said, 'Let's create a country without cheating and privileges, a world where people live together,' right?" and added, "Although you left first, countless Roh Moo-hyuns have been born as dandelion seeds in that place, remembering and practicing your values and philosophy all over the world."

He mourned, "Because of them, you always live together in this world as a comrade and senior."

He also stated, "Following the path you created, I will realize the dream of a 'world where people live without cheating and privileges' into a strong and harmonious great world."
