[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] The Justice Party has decided to complete its reestablishment, including a party name change, by next year.

On the 17th, the Justice Party held its 11th regular party convention at the National Assembly Members' Office Building large conference room and adopted a resolution for reestablishment that included this content.

According to the resolution, the direction of the reestablishment was presented as a party proposing an alternative social model, a party clarifying its identity, a party of social solidarity based on labor, a party innovating policies, and a party rooted in local communities.

The resolution also included a party that skillfully practices coalition politics not as a strategy but at a tactical level, and a party where members grow.

At the regular party convention that day, there was also consensus that the next party leader should prioritize the reestablishment of the Justice Party, including this principle.

In his greeting, Emergency Committee Chairperson Lee Eunju said, "Once today's party convention ends, the major mission entrusted to the Emergency Committee will enter its final stage," adding, "Our Justice Party's progressive politics will start anew today."

Chairperson Lee emphasized, "Let us rise again as a capable policy party that low-wage workers, including subcontracted workers in the shipbuilding industry earning 2 million won per month, and the absolute majority of our society, such as low-income workers and homeless tenants, can rely on, and that changes their lives."
