[Asia Economy Reporter Kum Bo-ryeong] Kim Yong-tae, Supreme Council Member of the People Power Party, once again emphasized his opposition to the transition to an emergency response committee system.

On the afternoon of the 1st, Kim stated on his Facebook, "As a Supreme Council Member of the party, I have repeatedly expressed my opposition to the transition to an emergency response committee," adding, "Regardless of the results of today's party members' meeting, my stance remains firm."

The People Power Party held a party members' meeting that day and reached a consensus to define the party's current status as an "emergency situation." This is interpreted as a step toward moving to an emergency response committee system.

Regarding this, Kim said, "The idea of depriving the legitimacy granted by the people and party members through the term 'emergency,' regardless of my personal opinion, is a regression of democracy," and added, "I will not choose the path of dying forever to live briefly like senior politicians who have made politics so shameful."

Kim also stated, "For the country and the people, I will continue to uphold principles and convictions, steadfastly looking toward the people and party members as I continue in politics."
