[Asia Economy Reporter Heo Midam] Independent lawmaker Hong Jun-pyo warned President Moon Jae-in on the 11th, saying, "Don't overdo it, and from now on, prepare to step down with a more humble attitude."

On the same day, Hong posted on his Facebook, "Descending a mountain is more dangerous. If you are not humble and careful, accidents always happen when descending. The same goes for administrations," he said.

He referred to the Four Major Rivers Project initiated by the Lee Myung-bak (MB) administration, which cost 22 trillion won, saying, "Although there is room for controversy, has there been any nationwide flood relief fundraising in South Korea since the Four Major Rivers Project?" mentioning the achievements of the project.

He continued, "Have you forgotten the days when broadcasters held live broadcasts every year during the summer monsoon season to raise flood relief funds from the entire nation? Is there currently any damage to crops worth tens of trillions every year due to drought?" raising his voice.

He then said, "It is all thanks to the Four Major Rivers restoration project and its achievements," and criticized, "Seeing the Moon Jae-in administration, which disparaged it from a one-sided perspective and insisted on dismantling the weirs, now quiet, I think it is at least fortunate."

Regarding the current administration's policies, Hong criticized, "With just one Pandora movie, the world's top nuclear power industry collapsed, and with clumsy policies, they were obsessed with siphoning off taxpayers' money by installing solar panels on farmland and mountains nationwide."

He added, "Seeing reports that the Moon administration, which led the destruction of national infrastructure while criticizing the previous administration, is now preparing to retire to Yangsan, I am reminded of the hardships the people endured over the past years."
