“It’s not my intention to be surprised, but when I started my term of office 7 years and 5 months ago, I resigned when I took office, and when I compare what I say as the chairman of the Council these days, it is almost the same. It means that none of the problems, expectations, and phenomena have changed. If it’s a small meeting, there’s a lot of regret that the things that need to change haven’t changed more.”
Park Yong-man, chairman of the Korean Chamber of Commerce and Industry, recently spoke with reporters during a year-end interview online and offline.
“I talked about’frog in a pot’ throughout my tenure. I was worried that if we didn’t know about the change and couldn’t keep up in a timely manner, it would become a’lump’ that we couldn’t handle. · The institutional arrangements are quite out of date,” he said.
The world is changing rapidly, and the system that will support it has not been able to keep up with it. The 3rd Law on Corporate Regulation, which was passed at the regular National Assembly this year, is representative.
Chairman Park said, “The National Assembly said it would reflect some of the expected side effects, so we had a public hearing and a debate. . He continued, “I think there should be a reflection on laws that can be discussed as long as there is an opportunity, such as the Peace Law and the Corolla Law. “I hope that measures to prevent side effects even in sub-enforcement rules, etc., have been put in place for the 3rd Pass Act,” he said.
Next, Chairman Park said, “I don’t do laws to ease regulations, but I feel helpless when I’m just dealing with bills that are burdened by companies.” Added.
Chairman Park, who inevitably had access to the National Assembly, said, “I saw a scene to visit the National Assembly, so when the National Assembly appeared on TV, my granddaughter said’It’s a grandfather’s company.'” A representative example of the fruitful efforts of Heavenly’Granddaughter Fool Grandpa’ is the regulatory sandbox.
He said, “Even in Corona 19, it is rumored that difficult things can be solved through a sandbox with the government. A total of 84 cases, which is about 3 on average, and if the application documents are lined up, the distance from the conference hall to the National Assembly, which is 6.5 km, has received great response and results,” he said.
“When I look back at the economy this year, I feel like I’m on a roller coaster,” said Chairman Park. “Especially in March, I was worried that the economy would collapse due to a high sense of crisis.” Crisis is an opportunity. In the digital, non-face-to-face and bio industries, changes are underway in preparation for the post corona era.
He said, “The resistance to new industries, changes in the way we work, changes in technology, etc. will decrease and acceptance will be much higher,” he said. “Therefore, there will inevitably be a polarization problem where the good things are better and the less good things get worse. “I think it seems,” he said, suggesting that expectations and concerns coexist.
Therefore, it is pointed out that companies must also change. Chairman Park said, “It is no longer an era in which growth and profit rationalize the work of a business. We need to strengthen our awareness of transparency, rationality, and some publicity.”
