[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] On the 23rd, the Minsheng Party commemorated the 11th anniversary of the passing of former President Roh Moo-hyun, stating, "We remember former President Roh and recall the spirit of Roh Moo-hyun," and added, "We will strive even harder to realize the values he sought to protect and the world he aimed to create."


Choi Do-ja, the chief spokesperson of the Minsheng Party, said in a statement on the same day, "Although 11 years have swiftly passed, the society that former President Roh dreamed of has not yet arrived," and "The privileges and unfair advantages among the leadership of our society remain, and the recent April 15 general election reaffirmed the strong walls of regionalism."


Chief Spokesperson Choi emphasized, "Former President Roh's life was a relentless challenge to break down regionalism and authoritarianism and to transform our politics," adding, "He may have failed, but he walked that path because he believed it was the right one."



Chief Spokesperson Choi evaluated, "(Former President Roh) chose a beautiful defeat to overcome regionalism and voluntarily relinquished power to eliminate authoritarianism," and "He devoted his life to achieving a society without privileges and unfair advantages."
