The Democratic Party criticizes Lee Jae-myung as 'Basic Society Chairman,' saying "He must establish his own basics first"

'Waiver of Immunity from Arrest' Demand
"The Basic Series Is a Cash Distribution Policy"

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jun-yi] The People Power Party criticized Lee Jae-myung, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, for deciding to take charge of the party's Basic Society Committee, saying, "He should prioritize establishing his own basics first."

Park Jeong-ha, chief spokesperson of the People Power Party, stated in a commentary on the 15th, "Lee, who should reflect on whether he himself has established the basics, is attempting to deceive the public and mislead public opinion with policies that are clearly financial disasters and future failures."

Park, the chief spokesperson, criticized, "The press conference three days ago, which was filled with outdated agendas, did not receive the public response expected. Then, he highlighted his specialty of boasting about taxes and pleaded to be saved from his judicial risks."

He continued, "Lee's basic series is a representative cash handout policy that lives only for today and disregards the future," adding, "In a situation where a low birthrate and super-aged society are imminent, cash-based policies must be handled with great caution. Nevertheless, Lee's shamelessness in trying to cover his personal judicial risks with taxpayers' money is once again evident."

Spokesperson Park emphasized, "The renunciation of immunity from arrest and compliance with Article 80 of the party constitution are concrete agendas to evaluate Lee's basics," and added, "Without the chairman himself standing firmly on his basics, any claim sounds nothing more than a plea for relief from a criminal suspect."

Earlier, on the 12th, Lee Jae-myung announced at the New Year's press conference that he would present a 'Basic Society' policy vision covering all areas including income, housing, and finance, and the Democratic Party announced that he would directly take charge of the party's Basic Society Committee to support the 'Basic Society' concept.
