,
, ‘[Herald Economy=Reporter Park Sang-hyun] Lee Jae-myung, the representative of the Democratic Party, stated on the 28th, “The Democratic Party will push for the revision of local currency as a party bill.”‘,
,
, ‘During the supreme council meeting held in the morning at the National Assembly on this day, the representative said, “We must find a way to revive the economy, alley economies, and livelihoods of the people at all costs.” This meeting is the first schedule of the party’s chief after being hospitalized at a hospital in Incheon due to COVID-19 confirmation on the 22nd.’,
,
, ‘The representative emphasized, “Local currencies have the effects of promoting consumption, supporting the income of the people, and activating alley businesses. In my experience, among the various policies created so far, local currencies are the most efficient fiscal policy and economic policy leading to increased tax revenue.”‘,
,
, ‘The representative also stated, “Today’s plenary will process bills related to people’s livelihoods such as the special law against fraud in housing leases.” “We would like the government and the ruling party to cooperate. The whole nation’s consumption voucher for the recovery of livelihoods, which the ruling party has been marketing as if it was giving out cash, is giving out consumption coupons to all citizens.”,
,
, ‘The representative continued, “Let’s activate consumption, especially alley economies, with unspendable consumption coupons. At this point, I hope the ruling party will support us.”‘,
,
, ‘The representative criticized the government’s response to the “medical crisis.” The representative said, “Korea’s medical system is on the verge of collapse. It is said that the number of deaths due to the ’emergency room revolving door’ has increased significantly compared to last year,” and “At this moment, there may be too many patients and families rolling their feet in the ambulance unable to even enter the emergency room.”‘,
,
, ‘The representative questioned, “Is it a solution to increase the patient’s own burden by raising the emergency room fee up to 90% without coming up with fundamental measures? It might be better to station police officers in front of the emergency room and conduct checks.” The representative emphasized, “Rather than these nonsensical measures of raising the emergency room patient burden, we need to swiftly establish fundamental measures.” “Let’s have discussions, communicate, increase the number of doctors by 2,000. What is the basis for this 2,000 increase? There are even strange rumors that we are obsessed with the number ‘two thousand.”.’,
,
, ‘The representative suggested, “Instead of setting a goal to increase by ‘one thousand within five years,’ can’t we spread the goal over 10 years? There can be various measures as solutions. I will make efforts to accurately assess the current situation and establish measures under the leadership of Chairman Park Ju-min of the Medical Crisis Response Task Force.”‘,
,
, ‘The representative also commented on the recent controversy surrounding ‘deepfake crimes.’ The representative said, “The damage from deepfake sexual exploitation material is serious. This is the very dark shadow in the age of so-called artificial intelligence before us,” and “We must realize that deepfake sexual exploitation material that destroys personalities with a push of a button is a truly serious crime.”‘,
,
, ‘The representative stated, “We need to swiftly establish measures to protect victims and prevent recurrence. I will establish a party-level special committee to examine policy alternatives and swiftly legislate.”‘,
,
, ‘The representative added, “The government and the ruling party have the authority to execute, so I ask them to prepare effective measures that can be implemented immediately.”‘,
