On the 20th, Rep. Cho Eung-cheon, who left the Democratic Party of Korea and is pushing for the creation of the tentatively named Future Coalition, asked Lee Nak-yeon, former representative of the Democratic Party of Korea, a member of the Third Zone Alliance, to run for Honam in this general election.
After attending the founding convention of the New Reform Party Central Party held at the National Assembly Hall on this day, Rep. Cho met with reporters and said, “If it is necessary for the new party to win the general election, I hope that running in the general election will be left as an option.”
He added, “If you ask me personally, I think it would be good if you go to Honam and create a new party in Honam.”
Previously, lawmakers Kim Jong-min and Lee Won-wook, also from the Future Coalition, also urged former leader Lee Nak-yeon to run for office in the Honam region.
Regarding Big Tent solidarity and founding, Rep. Cho said, “Unveiling the principles of integration is integration, and uniting as one party is also integration, but in my opinion, if we can just give the people the belief that ‘those forces are coming together as one,’ it is integration.” “We can talk regarding it,” he said, emphasizing, “I think we need to do it as quickly as possible.”
Regarding New Reform Party leader Lee Jun-seok’s pledge to abolish free subway riding for seniors, he said, “So far, policies have been sporadically presented according to the preferences of each local government head, and one should be done (and the other) depending on the age of the elderly, whether universal support or selective support is better, and the means of transportation.” “We need to discuss whether not doing so is justice and equality,” he said. “(Representative Lee) initiated that.”
