The National Assembly’s Land Transport Committee adopted a progress report on a personnel hearing on candidate Byeon Chang-heum of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport despite opposition from members of the People’s Strength. Members of the People’s Strength rejected the adoption, saying that they had no sincerity to apologize for candidate Byeon’s last words and that various suspicions were not resolved.
The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport held a general meeting and decided on the adoption of a report on the progress report on personnel hearings for candidates for the State Council (Minister Byeon Chang-heum, Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport). Of the 26 re-seat committee members, 17 were in favor and 9 were abstained.
President Moon is expected to appoint Byeon as the minister in the near future.
Prior to this, the ruling and opposition parties discussed the adoption of Candidate Byeon’s report at a plenary meeting on the 24th, but could not reach a conclusion due to a misconsensus. During the weekend, they decided to re-discuss through negotiations under water, but in the end, they could not reach an agreement, and Chairman Jin Sun-mi of the Democratic Party, head of the Homeland Transportation Commission, voted for a majority vote. The Democratic Party has a majority seat on the National Territory Committee, so it is possible to vote on a single agenda.
The power of the people, who had demanded that candidate Byeon’s voluntary resignation or withdrawal of his nomination, refused to vote. Heon-seung Lee, secretary of the power of the people, said, “We cannot agree with candidate Byeon because he has actually led the government’s real estate policy. He will be a person who pours oil into the fired real estate market. The biggest problem is that they are not receiving public trust at all.” As Chairman Jin enforced a vote, members of the People’s Power gathered to the chairman’s seat with a picket with’Greetings is a disaster’ and’Byeon Chang-heum, a police officer who is blind to success’ and protested in Goseong.
In the 21st National Assembly, it is the third time that the personnel hearing progress report was adopted without an agreement between the two parties, after Lee In-young, Minister of Unification, and Park Ji-won, head of the National Intelligence Service.
