[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] The People Power Party has pointed out the third major surge of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) and urged the government to establish clear quarantine principles.

On the 6th, Bae Jun-young, spokesperson for the People Power Party, said in an oral statement, "The fact that the number of COVID-19 confirmed cases exceeded 600 even on the weekend is evidence that the current situation is very serious."

He added, "The fluctuating regulatory standards and rollercoaster-style quarantine measures indicate that the limits have been reached," and criticized, "Discussing the elevation of social distancing only today is too late."

Spokesperson Bae raised his voice, saying, "The government, which had been taking a passive response like '2+α,' has completely lost its way between quarantine and the economy," and urged strongly for "consistent, straightforward quarantine measures and steadfast 'principled' quarantine instead of mole-catching style 'pinpoint' quarantine."
