Jin Seong-jun, “There is room for discussion on the size of the 250,000 won subsidy. The government and ruling party need a forward-looking stance.”

Regarding the “250,000 won livelihood recovery support fund for all citizens” proposed by Representative Lee Jae-myung, Rep. Jin Seong-jun, who serves as the chairman of the Democratic Party of Korea’s policy committee, said, “There is room for discussion no matter what the name is or the size.”

Rep. Jin said this on SBS radio’s ‘Kim Tae-hyun’s Politics Show’ today, asking, “Is there anything to talk about if we just close it down?”

Rep. Jin said, “The subsidy is intended to be used as an opportunity to ‘boost up’ the people’s economy by issuing consumption coupons with an expiration date rather than cash payments and allowing consumption in the relevant region within a certain period of time,” adding, “If you think about that purpose, the government and ruling party “We must also take a forward-looking stance,” he argued.

In addition, at the meeting between President Yoon Seok-yeol and Representative Lee, it was emphasized that President Yoon’s apology for the exercise of the veto, a promise to prevent recurrence, and an apology for the enforcement of the enforcement ordinance were necessary.

Regarding the possibility of failure to reach an agreement on the summit talks, Rep. Jin said, “Representative Lee Jae-myung did not request a summit meeting because he was disappointed about something,” and added, “The president requested a summit meeting to listen to the people’s voices and convey the message that the government should be corrected.” He explained:

He continued, “Looking at the positions the President and the Office of the President have shown so far, it seems as if meeting with the opposition party leader is a big change and a favor,” and added, “They say they will listen as much as possible without limit, but are they saying they will listen because they don’t know what the opposition party’s argument is?” I asked back.
