Accept the new representative position. Now I am giving this speech at my home in Jongno-gu. On the twelfth day of self-isolation, the body is in good health, but the heart is heavy.
My heart is moved by the lives of the people through the windows of our house. The street was almost empty. People are busy. The store is open, but no customers are coming. This pain will increase for some time.
The number of unemployed will increase and their life will be more difficult. At that time, I was left with the burden of being the representative of the ruling party. We will do our best to share our hearts with people and make this pain end as soon as possible.
I would like to express my gratitude and consolation to the candidates Kim Bu-gyeom and Park Joo-min for their good competition. Congratulations to the new members of the Supreme Council who will lead the leadership together.
I would like to express my encouragement to the candidates who will prepare for the following. A special thanks to President Lee Hae-chan and the leadership who led the party for two years and led all elections to victory.
We also thank the preparatory president of the National Assembly, Ahn Kyu-baek, Min Hong-cheol, and all members of the committee for preparing and managing the National Assembly well, even in a very difficult situation due to the reproliferation of the crown.
Above all, I would like to express my sincere thanks to all my fellow party members across the country for displaying an unprecedented high turnout, even though it was the first non-face-to-face convention in the party’s history. Comrades and dear fellow citizens, fellow party members, the mission entrusted to me in this national crisis is clear. I take it as the fifth order.
I will use all my strength to carry out your orders.
First, we will win the war against Corona. If we don’t win this war, it will be difficult for us to regain daily peace.
In order for the Democratic Party to effectively and systematically confront this war, I will expand and reorganize the current National Committee for Overcoming Disasters and assume the presidency.
The Committee for the Overcoming of National Disasters will work closely with the government and will endeavor to overcome this national crisis faster and better by obtaining the full participation of the people.
In addition, we will respond firmly to illegal acts, unjust acts, collective selfishness and fake news that damage the life and safety of people.
Our great people participate in this war determined to be quarantined. With such potential people, we have made a story of miracles so far.
Once again, we will surely overcome this crisis. Second, we will protect people’s lives. Corona 19 damage is widespread. In particular, the most vulnerable, including workers, the self-employed, small business owners and small and medium-sized enterprises, are most affected.
Many office workers and young people worry about life. The sighs of the merchants are deep. A double-income couple who don’t have a place to leave their children is simply a phenomenon.
We will immediately initiate large-scale consultations with the party government to help people facing suffering. We will implement measures for the welfare of the people of Chuseok that go beyond the conventional method.
Disaster grants will also be discussed. In addition, we will expand the social safety net, including all national employment insurance and unemployment assistance, as an institutional mechanism to protect the socially disadvantaged, such as the disadvantaged and those vulnerable to income.
To alleviate the suffering and anxiety of the people, we will work in all directions through the National Committee for Disaster Recovery, the party-government consultation and the National Assembly. We will take care of the life of each and every one of the citizens and we will treat them with agility.
Third, we will prepare for the future after Corona. Corona has led humanity into an era of great transformation, transforming the world into a new standard, a new order.
Great transformation, it is not a matter of our choice. Our choice is just a question of how we will survive in this age of great transformation.
Our crown defense has been evaluated as a model for the world. Following household appliances and semiconductors, popular music and movies, games and webtoons, we have become a global benchmark in the treatment of infectious diseases.
Now we must and can jump to the world’s first class in other fields. We will prepare in advance to pioneer and expand such promising fields.
The Korean New Deal, centered on the Digital New Deal and the Green New Deal, is the basis for future preparation. The K-New Deal Committee of the Democratic Party will be in charge of the domestic representative to increase the speed and effectiveness of the Korean New Deal by linking with the National Assembly.
I have proposed the New Deal of Balanced Development as an essential concept for the Korean version of the New Deal. We repeatedly request that balanced national development be considered the most important in the selection and budget allocation of the Korean version of the New Deal.
We are the only country in the world that has overcome war and poverty and achieved industrialization and democratization in a short period of time. Again, we believe we can.
Fourth, I will move on to integration policy. To overcome national difficulties and prepare for the future, we must rally the power of the people. There cannot be separate games and camps for that matter. I believe that the politics of unity is necessary and possible.
The first opposition party is now trying to change policy and break with the theater company. It is a welcome thing. The Democratic Party will also strengthen its integration efforts.
Keeping the principles, we will make concessions to the opposition party. As the distance between the two parties grows closer, the number of issues that can be agreed through dialogue will increase.
We will rush to legislate in search of consensus issues. First, I ask the National Assembly to quickly operate the four special committees that opposition parties approach: emergency economy, balanced development, energy, and low birth rate.
Fifth, we will accelerate innovation. Just as a great transformation is not an object of choice, innovation is not an object of choice. The same is true of all sectors, including the economic and political.
The Moon Jae-in administration advocated innovative growth as one of its national strategies. Innovative growth must continue and expand. We will support on the one hand to promote innovative growth, while on the other hand, we will reform or relax regulations.
The Democratic Party will renew itself to more closely empathize with the sufferings of people from all walks of life and treat them with greater precision. As part of that, we will institutionalize youth and women to participate in the party’s decision-making process.
We will expand and activate the Policy Committee. We will also make the Democratic Party competent, agile, and humble.
All we have to do is have the ability to get things done, the agility to respond quickly to problems and, in any case, we will have the humility to humble ourselves by understanding people’s hearts.
We will devote all our energy to fulfilling the five previous orders. In doing so, we will lay the foundation for the success of Moon Jae-in’s administration and the re-creation of the regime.
We will make Korea a first-class country where we will live well together. Among the five orders, the most urgent is the overcoming of Crown 19 and the economic and social hardships derived from it, that is, the national difficulties.
I will replace my resolve with him with what Winston Churchill said during World War II. If you ask what our purpose is, I will answer you in a word. That is the victory. Thank you.
