[사설 읽기] 초당적 포퓰리즘
The National Assembly approved a 16.9-trillion-won ($14.2-billion) supplementary budget bill Monday to provide financial support for pandemic-hit small merchants and self-employed people. It is fortunate that the ruling and opposition parties passed the bill based on bipartisanship after weeks of political haggling. 국회는 월요일 코로나19로 타격을 입은 소상공인과 자영업자를 지원하기 위해 16조 9,000억원(142억불)...

The Moon Jae-in administration cannot avoid criticism for easing social distancing rules ahead of the March 9 presidential election, despite an explosive surge in COVID-19 infections. On Friday, the government decided to allow cafes and restaurants to extend their business hours by one hour to 10 p.m., for about three weeks until March 13. 문재인정부는 코로나19 감염자의 폭발적인 급증에도 3월 9일 대선...

The gap between the rich and poor deepened over the past four years under the Moon Jae-in administration. The average annual income of the richest 10 percent increased by 14.29 million won ($12,000) from 2016 to 2020, according to the office of Rep. Choo Kyung-ho of the main opposition People Power Party, Tuesday. 문재인정부 들어 지난 4년간 빈부 격차가 심화됐다. 20일 국민의힘 추경호 의원실에 따르면 상위 10% 부자의 ...

Opposition People Power Party (PPP) presidential candidate Yoon Suk-yeol has triggered controversy over his remarks that he will launch an investigation into alleged corruption and abuse of power by the current administration if he is elected. He certainly went too far in targeting the Moon Jae-in government for an anti-corruption drive. 국민의힘 윤석열 대선후보가 당선될 경우 현 정부의 비리와 권력남용 의...

On Monday, the Moon Jae-in administration announced its measures against the rapid spread of the Omicron variant of COVID-19. The new guidelines call for easing monitoring and quarantine rules for low-risk patients. Such measures are inevitable as health authorities can no longer maintain a tight quarantine network in the face of an explosive spike in new infections. 문재인정부가 월...

Presidential candidates of the rival political parties have gone too far in making campaign pledges they cannot keep. It is reckless and irresponsible for them to try to woo voters with unfeasible policy proposals. 여야 대선주자들이 지키지 못할 공약들을 내놓는 것이 도를 넘어섰다. 실현 불가능한 정책들로 유권자의 마음을 사로잡으려는 것은 무모하고 무책임한 행동이다.

Korea reported 6,603 COVID-19 infections on Wednesday, marking an increase of 798 cases from a day earlier, mostly prompted by the rapid spread of the Omicron variant. This means the daily number of infections surpassed 6,000 for the first time since Dec. 24 when it stood at 6,233. It is a sharp increase of 2,439 cases from the 4,164 reported Jan. 13. 정부당국은 수요일 총 6,603명의 코로나1...

[사설 읽기] 증가하는 중국 리스크
South Korea is likely to bear the brunt of China's expected economic slowdown this year, raising the need to reduce its undue dependence on the world's second-largest economy. The question now is how to minimize the fallout from the growing China risk. 한국은 올해 중국의 예상되는 경기 둔화에 직격탄을 맞을 가능성이 높아 세계 2위 경제대국에 대한 과도한 의존도를 줄여야 할 필요성이 제기되고 있다. 이제 문제는 증가하는 중국 리스크로 인한 여파를 어떻게 최소화할 것인가이다.
