The power of the people is ordering reasonable results centering on the government.

Senior Spokesman Yoo Sang-beom met with reporters at the National Assembly on the 28th and said, “I think there are reasonable reasons for both the business world’s position on the current economic situation and the argument that workers’ real wages have decreased due to inflation.” I look forward to trying to find out,” he said.

On the other hand, the Democratic Party of Korea has not made an official position on the minimum wage increase, but it is in the position that the minimum wage should be raised in consideration of inflation.

On the 27th, Democratic Party lawmaker Lee Su-jin, secretary of the Environment and Labor Committee of the National Assembly, expressed solidarity at the Federation of Korean Trade Unions executive resolution meeting, which argued for a minimum wage increase and a struggle against labor reform bills.

Rep. Lee said, “I will fight harder against the Yoon regime, which suppressed labor and bloody suppression, and play a role in raising the minimum wage.”

On the same day, on Facebook, “In the period of low growth and soaring prices, there is no improvement in the income structure of workers.” There is also. The minimum wage system has obvious social positive functions such as narrowing the wage gap and easing inequality, so it should be well operated.”
