Moon on 'Stock Transfer Tax Brake'... Ha Tae-kyung "Hit and Run Only Works Once or Twice"
[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Regarding President Moon Jae-in's statement on stock transfer tax, saying "We must not discourage individual investors," Ha Tae-kyung, a member of the Future United Party, criticized, saying "Hit and run only works once or twice."
On the 17th, Rep. Ha said on Facebook, "Wasn't the increase in stock transfer tax approved by the president himself?"
That morning, President Moon had put the brakes on the government's financial tax reform plan, stating, "It should not be a way that shrinks the stock market or discourages individual investors."
In response, Rep. Ha said, "Hit and run only works once or twice; we are not fooled anymore. Apologize first for the hasty policy," and pointed out, "They rush through hasty policies and only back down when the public gets angry every time. It looks like they scold their subordinates for acting arbitrarily and then correct it themselves."
