[Asia Economy Reporters Lee Ji-eun and Kim Hye-min] The People Power Party has submitted an urgent question request, stating that conflicting statements from government officials regarding the supply of COVID-19 vaccines are causing public anxiety.


Kim Seong-won, the senior deputy floor leader of the People Power Party, said in a meeting with reporters on the morning of the 30th after submitting the urgent question request at the National Assembly main building, "The statements from government authorities are all inconsistent."


He added, "Some say vaccination will be possible in February, while others say it will only be possible in the second quarter, causing considerable anxiety among our citizens. We have submitted this urgent question to resolve public doubts and questions about whether the government's direction is correct and whether the supply is proceeding properly."



Deputy Floor Leader Kim stated, "We will request the convening of a plenary session on January 6," and expressed his intention to discuss this with Kim Young-jin, the senior deputy floor leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, later in the afternoon.
