[Asia Economy Reporters Kim Hyemin, Jeong Donghoon] "Although I have many shortcomings, I am confident that the new government will be well managed with the help of you (the transition committee)." (President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol)

"Even amid the chaotic atmosphere domestically and internationally, such as the 'complete prosecution reform' phase, the transition committee quietly completed the tasks assigned. The agenda is full of government tasks that have never existed before, such as cyber security and the digital platform government." (Ahn Cheol-soo, Chairman of the Presidential Transition Committee)

On the 6th, the Presidential Transition Committee (transition committee) disbanded after 50 days since its launch. President-elect Yoon and Chairman Ahn reflected on the 50 days and evaluated that they were able to create 110 government tasks that could lay the foundation for the new government.

President-elect Yoon added, "Right after the March 10 presidential election, without time to rest, we launched the transition committee and worked breathlessly, covering everything from opening the Blue House to relocating the office."

He said, "I recently received a booklet of government tasks from Chairman Ahn Cheol-soo, and it really feels reassuring," adding, "I wonder if there has ever been a transition committee that prepared for the government launch so faithfully, quickly, and without any problems."

Since the official launch of the transition committee on March 18, the committee worked for 50 days preparing the new government's vision and the five-year work plan, the government tasks. On the 3rd of this month, they created and publicly announced 110 government tasks and 521 implementation tasks. The government vision was presented as 'Korea taking off again, a nation where citizens prosper together,' and the principles of government operation were set as national interest, practicality·fairness·common sense.

Chairman Ahn said, "Campaign promises and government tasks are different," adding, "Government tasks must be feasible and sustainable, so there may be some differences from campaign promises in the process, but the transition committee should bear external criticism so that the president-elect can manage the government with peace of mind."
