People Power Party Gyeongnam Provincial Assembly Members and City/County Chairpersons Declare Support for Candidate Kim Ki-hyun

Fifty-six members of the Gyeongnam Provincial Assembly affiliated with the People Power Party, along with 17 chairpersons of city and county councils in Gyeongnam, declared their support for People Power Party representative candidate Kim Ki-hyun.

On the 2nd at 11 a.m., about 50 provincial assembly members and city and county council chairpersons held a press conference at the main gate of the provincial assembly, stating the reason for their support: “Kim Ki-hyun is the right candidate who can guarantee backing for national governance, cooperation among the party, government, and Blue House, and victory in the general election.”

56 members of the Gyeongnam Provincial Assembly affiliated with the People Power Party and 17 chairpersons of city and county councils in Gyeongnam declared their support for candidate Kim Ki-hyun as the representative of the People Power Party.

In the statement, they first emphasized the need to establish a People Power Party leadership that can support the Yoon Seok-yeol administration, which has many tasks ahead such as overcoming the current economic crisis and pushing forward three major reforms in labor, pensions, and education.

They also argued that electing a party representative who can unite the people and the party is an urgent task to neutralize the opposition’s unchecked attacks and to build a fair and reasonable Republic of Korea, stating that this party representative election is a crossroads for progress or retreat.

They appealed for party members’ support, saying that the candidate who can solve these issues is Kim, who stood against the oppression of the Moon Jae-in administration and protected the People Power Party as floor leader.

Furthermore, since Kim Ki-hyun is the candidate who can complete the half-victory blocked by the tyranny of the majority in the National Assembly despite regaining power, they requested that the five years of suffering under the Moon Jae-in administration be taken as a lesson, and that the party convention become a festival of policies and visions, urging restraint from slanderous attacks.

They declared that today’s gathering is out of loyalty to the people and the People Power Party and requested party members to definitely elect Kim Ki-hyun as party representative.

The list of supporters included 56 assembly members including Gyeongnam Provincial Assembly Chairman Kim Jin-bu, and all 17 city and county council chairpersons except one independent chairperson, Kim Yi-geun of Changwon Special City Council.
