The Hankyoreh “Democrats, Don’t Care” in Enforcement of the Special Law of Gadeok Island

Newspapers and opposition parties criticize the enforcement of the new airport special law on Gadeokdo Island

On the 19th, the New Airport Special Act on Gadeokdo Island, a long-awaited project in Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam, actively promoted by the Democratic Party of Korea passed the general meeting of the National Assembly’s National Land Transportation Committee. In the special law, there is a provision, which is a key issue, that the preliminary feasibility study (preliminary feasibility study (preliminary) can be exempted for quick and smooth construction if necessary), and the bill was passed while maintaining this provision.

There are criticisms that it is correct to put a clause that allows the business to proceed without going through an economic feasibility study before starting a state-run project with a project cost of 10 to 20 trillion won.

The ruling and opposition parties held a general meeting of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport on the same day, and voted on the Special Law of Gadeokdo New Airport with 21 members in favor of the 23 members of the Republic of Korea. Justice Party lawmaker Shim Sang-jeong, who voted against at the plenary meeting on the day, said, “The new airport on Gadeokdo Island is just a’election airport’ and a’ticketing airport’ ahead of the by-election. It is the product of the rivalry of both parties.” On the 28th of last month, members of the People’s Strength in the’Daegu-Gyeongbuk’ region proposed the’Daegu-Gyeongbuk New Airport Construction Special Act’ on the 28th of last month.

On the 20th, among the nationwide morning general newspapers, the Hankook Ilbo covered this news in the headline on the front page. The Hankook Ilbo said, “The key to giving the choice to the Minister of Equipment, who is in charge of the country’s barns, is to avoid the controversy over preferential treatment, but in reality it is unknown how free the ruling party will be. Hong Nam-ki, deputy prime minister of economy and minister of equipment, pointed out that the situation is being dragged to the party office every time in fiscal battles such as disaster subsidies.”

The Hankook Ilbo said, “Yeta is a system that verifies and evaluates the policy and economic feasibility of a public investment project, and targets projects with a total budget of 500 billion won or more. Gadeok is also a new airport, where a whopping 200 times more budget is invested than the standard, but it has opened a way to bypass difficult pre-procedures such as Yeta for quick promotion.”

The Hankook Ilbo evaluated that “Gadeokdo New Airport Special Act, despite concerns about the special provisions, has taken steps to deal with the National Assembly because the political interests of the opposition parties fell right before the election.” Apart from the ruling and opposition parties, the opinion of the lawmakers themselves was’excessive preferential treatment’, and the amendment to remove the special provisions was discussed, but it turned over again on this day.”

The Hankook Ilbo criticized both parties in an editorial. The Hankook Ilbo said, “The Gadeokdo New Airport Project is a very large project with a budget of around 10 trillion won expected. Although a preliminary survey to review the policy and economic feasibility of the project is essential, it is compelling to criticize the politics of the politicians who gave up even minimal verification in order to get the vote 40 days before the Busan mayoral by-election. He pointed out that the future of the country is not even in the midst of the politicians that abuse the special airport laws.

The Hankook Ilbo said, “It’s ridiculous that the Democratic Party, which criticized the Lee Myung-bak administration’s exemption from pre-tapping the four major river projects during the past opposition party, changed its stance to’then, then, now,’ The power of the people, who professed’I like it,’ eventually took the hands of the Democratic Party and could not be free from this accusation.”

In an editorial of the Dong-A Ilbo, “Apart from the controversy on the pros and cons of Gadukdo New Airport, it is justifiable for the politicians on the verge of an election to pursue a project with a budget of at least 10 trillion won or more without any preliminary procedures for economic feasibility He pointed out.

Strongly criticized Hankyoreh’s “Democratic Party, Don’t Care” editorial

In the article on page 5, the Hankyoreh criticized both parties and the Democratic Party in an editorial. In an editorial, the Hankyoreh said, “In the case of national projects that require an astronomical budget, economic feasibility, impact on the environment, and the future of the country should be carefully considered and carefully promoted. He strongly criticized that the ruling ruling party, which is responsible for managing the state administration, should be more so. “However, the Democratic Party is not covering up the fire.”

The Hankyoreh said, “The Democratic Party will build a new airport in the area of ​​Gadeok Island, Gangseo-gu, Busan as a gateway airport in the southern region in a special law filed with the National Assembly on November 26 last year.” Without the process of selecting a location, he started to “learn Gadeokdo”. It also covered all kinds of preferential treatment, such as exemption and shortening of pre-procedures such as pre-processing such as pre-ta and environmental impact assessment, financing financing to subsidize construction costs, tax reduction and financial support. The Justice Party criticized it for’by-election by the mayor of Busan’, but the Democratic Party drew in the people’s strength, saying,’It will solve Busan’s aspirations.’ Eventually, the power of the people also declared their participation in the special law on the 1st. It can be said that it can be said that it is the’election night’ of the two major political parties.’

The Hankyoreh said, “Democratic party leader Kim Tae-yeon said on the 19th,’Through legislation in the National Assembly in February, the new airport of Gadeokdo Island will be nailed as an irreversible national project,’ and emphasized,’We will let the government departments go into business immediately after passing the bill.’ It is out of common sense after pointing out, “I will make it irreversible at all because of lack of preferential legislation.” I don’t understand what you’re trying to do afterwards. Also, in this way, we cannot but ask the Democratic Party what it means to win the Busan mayoral election. You have to know how to be ashamed.”

Chosun Ilbo, President Moon “spoils the country” over proposal to pay condolence money for former citizens

“If the situation comes out of the corona, we can review the payment of subsidies to comfort the citizens and subsidies for the relief of national morale.” This is what President Moon Jae-in said on the 19th. Regarding the presidential remarks, the Blue House relations explained that “the same character as last year’s first disaster support fund paid to all citizens.”

The Chosun Ilbo and JoongAng Ilbo dealt with the news on the front page and argued that it was an election remark. In an article on the front page of the Chosun Ilbo, “President Moon has changed in one month.” “President Moon was negative about the’universal payment’ that the ruling party had insisted, and even at the New Year’s conference a month ago,’The 4th subsidy discussion is too early’. I did. Until recently, President Moon put the weight on the’selection support’ side, and said on this day as well,’please allow the party to take into account the financial conditions’ for the 4th subsidy. However, President Moon reportedly pulled out the 5th subsidy for the whole people on the premise of’the situation to escape from the corona’.

The Chosun Ilbo insisted in an editorial that “overtly buying elections ruins the country.” The Chosun Ilbo said, “President Moon has been negative about the Democratic Party’s payment to the entire population, but he has reversed his words. It is said that it is not disaster assistance, but morale is boosted. This is because of the by-election of the mayors of Seoul and Busan. It is an act of public procurement that if you shoot the Democratic Party, you will give money.”

The Chosun Ilbo said, “The Democratic Party, which created an election that would not be necessary due to the sexual harassment of its mayors, would pour out money from the people’s’fraud mitigation’ to win it somehow and give it a congratulation. Each cost more than 10 trillion won, but since there is no money in the treasury, everyone has to pay debt. He also said, “There is no way to stop the government’s full rollout, and the national debt exceeds 1,000 trillion won.”
