President Yoon Seok-yeol and the People Power Party leadership held a private lunch today and decided to strengthen the communication system between the party and the Presidential Office.
Lee Man-hee, Secretary General of the People Power Party, said, “A private lunch meeting was held between the party leadership and the Presidential Office chaired by President Yoon Seok-yeol for regarding two hours starting at 12:10 p.m. today.”
Secretary-General Lee said at the meeting, “We decided to strengthen the smooth communication system between the party and the President’s Office in all areas, including policy and budget, to take care of the difficult lives of the people.”
He also added, “Considering the difficult economic situation, we decided to seek cooperation from the opposition party so that next year’s budget and livelihood bills can be processed more quickly.”
Secretary-General Lee said that President Yoon emphasized that this was the 60th Trade Day and asked, “Amid difficult internal and external conditions, let us work together to closely manage difficulties at the export site and abolish regulations.”
Secretary-General Lee also explained, “There were discussions on the smooth implementation of policies for the development of the Busan region, such as the new Gadeokdo Airport and the development of the North Port, and the enactment of a special law on global international hub cities.”
It is interpreted as an intention to soothe public sentiment in the Busan region following the failure to host the World Expo.
At the luncheon held at the Yongsan Presidential Office, Representative Kim Ki-hyun, Floor Leader Yoon Jae-ok, Policy Committee Chairman Yoo Yu-dong, and Secretary General Lee Man-hee attended the luncheon, as did Chief of Staff Kim Dae-ki, Director of Policy Lee Kwan-seop, and five newly replaced senior secretaries.
The meeting between President Yoon and the ruling party leadership was a month and a half following the luncheon held on October 18, right following the crushing defeat in the by-election for Gangseo-gu mayor in Seoul.
