Presidential Office ``finding fault with special prosecutor law aimed at general election'' = South Korea

"We firmly believe that this bill was created with the intention of finding some kind of flaw in the general election."
President Lee Kwang-seop talks about the 'Special Prosecutor's Law for Mrs. Kim Gun-hee', which the Democratic Party (opposition) has a strong will to forcefully dispose of.
The head of the policy office made this statement. Director Lee appeared on the KBS TV program 'Sunday Diagnosis Live' on the morning of the 24th and said, ``Actually, once the bill is passed on the 28th and passes from the National Assembly to the government, we will decide what we think.''
I'm sure people will be worried about how to respond." The special prosecutors' laws that were teased by the Democratic Party at the plenary session were the special prosecutors' law on suspicion of stock manipulation involving Mrs. Kim Geun-hee, and the Daejang-dong 5 billion club special prosecutors' law.
Ru. The Democratic Party and other opposition parties said, ``As it has become clear that Mrs. Kim Geun-hee not only lent passbooks for stock transactions, but also made transactions suspected of market manipulation, we request that a neutral and fair investigation be carried out.''
A special prosecutor must be appointed,'' but the People's Power (ruling party) has opposed the move, saying it is ``a general election weapon for propaganda and agitation.''
On this day, Director Lee talked about the shrinkflation of some companies.
Regarding the question of whether to leave things as they are or to reduce product capacity while raising prices, he said, ``It is not right for us to provide guidance and interfere in corporate activities.''
He went on to say, ``In response to actions that are considered to be deceiving consumers, we are promoting a policy to indicate on product labels how much the capacity has been reduced.''
Furthermore, regarding the government's need to maintain a sound fiscal policy, he said, ``I think it is very meaningful to prepare for the future.In the run-up to the election, we have to avoid foolish policies from the perspective of voting sentiment.''
However, I believe that if we can stabilize prices, we can put this country's economy into a virtuous cycle. We will continue to make efforts in this direction."
He added, ``In order to stabilize prices, we use the government budget to select certain items each week, and use the government budget to support discounts on items that have increased significantly. Sugar, flour, green onions, onions, etc.
"We check the prices of each item every day," he said.
