The place for the first New Year’s work report of the Yoon Seok-yeol administration, which starts with the Ministry of Strategy and Finance on the 21st, is expected to strengthen its on-site nature rather than staying at the Yongsan Presidential Office.
An official from the presidential office told the Seoul Shinmun on the 20th that “various places for business reports are being reviewed.” As the new year’s business report will be held on site two years following the 2021 business report, which was replaced by written or video conference due to the spread of Corona 19, each ministry is moving more busily. It is said that each ministry is reviewing the best place to maximize the policy direction and meaning of 2023. For example, the Ministry of Science and ICT, which was the ‘first hitter’ in the 2020 New Year’s work report during the Moon Jae-in administration, held an event at the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) located in the Daedeok Research Complex and put the message of ‘innovation and growth through science and technology’ to the fore. there is a bar
According to the Office of the President, the joint business report of the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, the Ministry of SMEs and Startups, and the Ministry of Science and Technology scheduled for early next week will be held with the keyword ‘future food’. It will go on around 11 times until. It is conducted in the form of a report to the public, and the general public, who are policy consumers, also participate.
However, the President’s Office explained that during the Ministry of Strategy and Finance’s work report, which is held concurrently with the Emergency Economic People’s Livelihood Meeting and the National Economic Advisory Council, the National Economic Advisory Committee, composed of economists and private experts, effectively serves as a ‘national panel’.
As President Yoon Seok-yeol is actually taking policy communication steps, such as explaining and discussing reform tasks by policy directly to the public at the site of the business report, there is a prospect that the presidential office may not hold a separate presidential New Year’s conference. President Yoon started communicating with the public by explaining the importance of the three major reforms (labor, education, and pension) at a meeting with young people at the Blue House guesthouse that day. In particular, President Yoon said, “Of the three major reforms, the first thing to be promoted is labor reform.”
Meanwhile, it is known that there is a high possibility that President Yoon will officiate at a regular cabinet meeting on the 27th and confirm the list of special pardons at the end of the year. While this end-of-year pardon is scheduled to be finalized mainly for politicians who were excluded from the last Liberation Day special envoy, the pardon for former President Lee Myung-bak, whose sentence execution ends on the 28th, is a fait accompli. On the other hand, it is said that the policy of ‘no’ has been set for the ‘pardon for unpaid fines’ for former Prime Minister Han Myung-sook, which is raised by some in the political world.
Regarding former Prime Minister Han, who was reinstated together during the pardon of former President Park Geun-hye last year, a passport official said, “It is a principle that pardon is difficult for those who have not paid the fine,” and “there is no choice but to pay the fine prescribed by law.”
