The biggest policy issue that will sway public sentiment after Lunar New Year’s Eve with by-elections in April is the issue of Corona 19 fourth-year disaster aid payments. Both the ruler and the opposition parties agree on the payment of disaster aid, but have not been able to close the disagreement on the specific payment method. Let’s find out by connecting reporters to the National Assembly. Reporter Baek Jong-gyu! There are disagreements between the ruling party and the party government on the catastrophe subsidy method 4. Are you saying there is a full-scale discussion after the Lunar New Year holidays? Four political circles are citing disaster subsidies as the biggest problem that will determine the direction of public sentiment ahead of the by-elections. The concern is when and how disaster assistance will be paid. First, the Democratic Party, which officially announced the 4th Disaster Subsidy Payment, is expressing its intention to support before the by-elections. Democratic Party spokesman Shin Young-dae said in a comment today that 97% of the third disaster aid was paid before the Lunar New Year holiday. He said it was not enough to solve last year’s difficulties. At the same time, the Democratic Party emphasized once again that it will rush to discuss the fourth disaster support fund immediately after the Lunar New Year holidays. Just before the Lunar New Year holidays, the Democratic Party, the government and the Blue House held a closed-door meeting. At this meeting, we agreed to arrange an additional budget for the fourth disaster support payment, but we were unable to reduce disagreement over the payment method, scale, and timing. The Democratic Party is calling for support in March ahead of the by-elections by putting universal and selective payments on the table for discussion. Hong Nam-ki, Deputy Prime Minister of Economy and Ministry of Strategy and Finance, who is in charge of the country’s headquarters at the moment, is emphasizing support for strong support and reinforcing blind spots. A budget of about 20 trillion won is required to pay for the fourth disaster support fund, but the burden is placed on selective support due to the loss of financial strength. Additionally, most of them have to pay deficit government bonds to raise money, and they are also concerned that this could lead to increased debt. Contrary to the Democratic Party’s view of simultaneously discussing universal support for the entire population and detecting support for victims, discussions between party governments remain a task. It is also difficult to come to terms with the opposition party, the people’s power. The force of the people is in favor of the broad framework of the 4th payment of disaster subsidy, but stipulates that the payment of subsidies in March, just before the elections, is a sensational and populist cash distribution. At the same time, we hold the position that, to the extent that finance can afford it, there is a need to provide targeted support focused on affected industries, such as small business owners and the self-employed. Furthermore, the discussion process in the National Assembly is not expected to be smooth, as it insists that the method of obtaining financial resources should be adjusted rather than an additional budget. Given that the Democratic Party, the Ministry of Strategy and Finance and the opposition parties have different views on the payment of disaster aid, it is noteworthy whether the disagreement will be reduced in discussion after the Lunar New Year holidays.
