A petitioner who was identified as a fourth-year academy cadet posted a post in the Cheong Wa Dae national petition and said that politicians once refused to attend the’West Sea Protection Day’ commemoration ceremony. It’s rudeness” he pointed out.

On the 27th, the petitioner posted a post on the public petition bulletin board with the title, “Active Korean cadets make a confession to the President for their friendliness”.

He said, “The commemoration event in honor of those who gave their lives to the country and the political controversy in itself is a blasphemy against the deceased and the bereaved families. How could it be?” he criticized.

He said, “What kind of day is the day of protecting the West Sea? “It’s just one day a year to commemorate the soldiers who died while defending the Republic of Korea against North Korean provocations in the storm of the Cheonan, the 2nd Yeonpyeong Sea, and the shelling of Yeonpyeong Island, and to comfort the bereaved families who gave their beloved sons and husbands to the Republic of Korea.”

Petitioner also argued, “I dare deduce, the intention of the Ministry of Defense is that most of the politicians attending the event are opposition politicians, so it seems that they are trying to block this in advance, as political controversy may arise over whether or not they attend.”

“Before opposition politicians are politicians, they are citizens of the Republic of Korea, and it is very normal and a natural right for them to participate in memorial events to honor their heroes. “It doesn’t make sense to use all my common sense to block people from participating.”

In addition, the petitioner said, “If it violates political neutrality to confess that the state should come to commemorate the dead and comfort the bereaved family, and that it should not be disturbed for any reason, it will violate a hundred and a thousand times.” I’ll get it sweetly.”

He said, “I petition the President with the hope that this will never happen again. Please don’t be ashamed of my country, the Republic of Korea, and the military. “Our cadets will devote themselves and will become the proud soldiers of the Republic of Korea who are loyal to the country and devoted to the people.”

In connection with the request of former Rep. Seung-min Yoo and Rep. Ha Tae-gyeong to attend the West Sea Protection Day event, the Ministry of National Defense announced the position that’the 4/7 re-election is imminent and cannot visit the unit where the event is held’.

Then, on the afternoon of the 25th, a day before the event, the National Assembly’s National Defense and Political Committee members were invited by sending a’Katok Invitation Letter’. It is rare that an invitation to an important government-sponsored event was sent the day before the event, either as an official document or as a KakaoTalk message.

In response, Congressman Ha said on his Facebook page, “The government is joking around with a memorial event for the Cheonan,” and “It is upset and regret that the fact that even the National Defense Commission must be allowed to attend an event in memory of those who have been sacrificed for the country.” Criticized.
