Lee calls for uninterrupted reforms for continued nat'l development

President Lee Jae Myung emphasized the importance of uninterrupted reforms during a meeting with his senior aides at Cheong Wa Dae on Thursday. He stated that these reforms are crucial in eliminating rule-breaking and unfairness, paving the way for continued national development. Lee explained that no policy can be truly effective if the public believes that breaking the rules is more advantageous than adhering to them.

Therefore, he stressed the need for ongoing efforts to correct the rule-breaking, unfairness, and abnormalities that negatively impact people's lives.

According to Lee, strengthening the solidarity and trust of the community as a whole through these reforms would solidify the Republic of Korea's path to an unreplaceable future. As proof of tangible change, he highlighted the successful work of an interagency task force that significantly reduced the number of voice phishing crimes.

Lee urged particular attention to acts that disrupt the economic order, such as market cornering, collusion, stock price manipulation, and other offenses affecting people's lives. These include digital sex crimes, drug-related activities, serious accidents, and public-sector corruption.
