Lee Jin-sook, a candidate for chairman of the Korea Communications Fee (KCC), who’s suspected of ‘non-public use of company playing cards’, determined to not submit ‘baking level’ assortment particulars, and that was the one factor she was. has promised to enter among the many particulars of using company playing cards. The explanation given by applicant Lee was that he acquired a reply saying, “I contacted the one who purchased the bread, however I most popular to not enter it for private data functions . ” Because the impression of candidate Lee’s false reply continued, the Committee on Science, Know-how, Info, Broadcasting and Communication of the Nationwide Meeting (Committee on Science, Know-how, Info, Broadcasting and Communication) determined to carry an inquiry into the problems of was to come back on the 2nd of the next month and notify a candidate. Learn once more.
On the twenty sixth, on the listening to of the candidate Lee Jin-sook’s employees, the Investigation and Protection Committee of the Nationwide Meeting put down and selected the identical request of the opposition get together for the presence of witnesses to reply questions that had been to be questioned to verify suspicions concerning the Korean Communications Fee’s outrageous actions. and candidate for chairman of the Korea Communications Fee. 4 witnesses had been chosen, together with three Korean Communications Fee working-level officers and candidate Lee.
As this applicant has been chosen as a witness within the inquiry which is due on the 2nd of subsequent month, he might be topic to the ‘Act on Proof, Analysis, and so forth. within the Nationwide Meeting’ (Certificates Act and Evaluation of the Nationwide Meeting). An official from the Nationwide Meeting defined, “Since these topic to personnel hearings don’t take oath as witnesses, they don’t seem to be topic to the Nationwide Meeting Proof Evaluation Act. Nonetheless, if they’re chosen as witnesses for questions on pending circumstances, and so forth., they might be liable to punishment for perjury.” In reality, candidate Lee emphasised a number of instances throughout the listening to that he was not a witness when he refused to reply or he gave obscure solutions to questions from members of the opposition get together, however he can’t escapeentrance
On the listening to of the employees on today, a powerful dispute started between the governing events and the opposition, members of the listening to committee, and the candidate concerning the ‘baking level’ of candidate Lee. Prior to now, when candidate Lee was president of Daejeon Munhwa Broadcasting (MBC), he made a number of funds at well-known bakeries similar to Seongsimdang in Daejeon and Napoleon Bakery in Seoul, elevating suspicions that he could have used the company card for private causes. In response to a collection of questions from members of the opposition get together on this regard, candidate Lee stated on the twenty fifth that he would submit particulars of the gathering of factors, saying, “We submitted the factors of the one who purchased the bread and that document continues to be there.”
Nonetheless, on the twenty sixth, the third day of the listening to, candidate Lee abruptly modified his thoughts and stated, “I contacted the recipient (of the factors), however they stated they did not need me to ship I entered them for private data functions, so I couldn’t enter them.” He stated, “If I had been to say my factors, I might have simply submitted them.
When candidate Lee stated that he wouldn’t submit particulars of the gathering of baking factors, members of the opposition get together protested loudly. Choi Min-hee, chairman of the Nationwide Safety Committee, stated, “Irrespective of how a lot you discuss it, how can or not it’s private data? Lee himself stated that he would supply a screenshot of the main points of the factors assortment, and “The Energy of the Public Secretary additionally stated that he would supply me with a screenshot,” he requested.
As lawmakers from the ruling and opposition events engaged in a confrontation over “candidate Lee’s baking factors,” New Reform Get together lawmaker Lee Jun-seok stepped ahead and requested e “intermediate resolution” to the problem, saying, “As a baking level the problem continues to be developing, it appears that evidently there are some elements that the general public doesn’t perceive.” Then, Hwang Jeong-ah, a member of the Democratic Get together of Korea, appeared as a speaker. The next is the total textual content of the associated remarks.
Lee Jun-seok, New Reform Get together lawmaker : After all, whereas confirming varied suspicions, the dialogue feels a bit scattered. Evidently even the individuals watching on-line at the moment are struggling to grasp this damaged state of affairs. aside from the applicant’s use of company playing cards, what are they actually making an attempt to show. ? Evidently there are some issues that the general public doesn’t perceive.
Subsequently, the controversy about submitting the main points of this level (assortment) is simply based mostly on the speculation that I’ve made by means of these factors. non-public? Subsequently, if a member of the Nationwide Meeting might set up this matter, I believe that the progress of the committee would go easily.
President Choi Min-hee : Sure, I wish to ask Commissioner Hwang Jeong-ah to kind this out. Do not attempt to do it now. company bank cards.’ I will provide you with a while.
Chairman Choi Min-hee: Let’s begin the assembly. A while in the past, Commissioner Lee Jun-seok made a request, and a consensus was reached among the many members. Hwang Jeong-ah for clarifying this.
Hwang Jeong-ah, Democratic Get together lawmaker : I am certain you are curious why there’s a lot discuss bread and what the purpose is, so I would prefer to summarize it for you.
The present applicant says he has ‘by no means used a company card for private causes’. By the way in which, committee members, have you ever ever acquired any assist materials on this regard? Sure, there wasn’t any in any respect. As I’m nonetheless telling you, the case was the identical with Kim Jae-cheol, the previous president of Munhwa Broadcasting Firm, who was discovered responsible of utilizing a company card for private functions. Though they stated they used it for public functions proudly and shamelessly, there was no proof to justify it.
The bottom is just not actual bread. A very powerful factor is that the applicant clearly lies with out submitting any materials to show his phrases, and it’s much more harmful as a result of the lie intends a prison act made by the applicant to cowl a public place, that’s, a It’s a state of affairs.
Candidate Jin-Sook Lee has been caught mendacity about a couple of factor. You stated you solely obtained meals at a luxurious resort, however you paid a whole bunch of 1000’s of received late at night time You stated you did not pay at Seongsimdang (* a well-known bakery in Daejeon), however you paid, and also you stated you paid. submit the seized proof that you just fortunately discovered, and that that is proof for breach of belief prices As a result of it was possible for use as data, they abruptly refused to submit it , making excuses for private data. They inform lies like that they usually do not even blink. There are already a number of circumstances of questionable private use. The whole lot have to be confirmed.
(Particulars of the gathering of the bakery level) was the one proof he needed to submit as a result of it was helpful to him in such a state of affairs, so is it not pure that we should always see? However why cowl? (mic off)
(Continued speech) Why did I purchase a lot bread? In the event you purchased bread, you may discover Tous Les Jours, Paris Baguette, Sacred Coronary heart Dang, Napoleon, and several other different bakers at varied shops, so it was inevitable that for those who purchased a lot bread, that somebody would have collected factors. In case you have accrued factors within the title of a company, it’s not private data, and for those who used a company card within the title of a person, it will likely be a cost of breach of belief, and irrespective of the way you take a look at it , you might be topic to knowledge entry.
However earlier, you stated that the secretary purchased bread and distributed it to others. However taking a look at what the candidate is saying, I ponder if he’s an government secretary. Additionally it is liable for verifying which people acquired and used the company card. Please show the textual content message (captured). It’s unlawful even when the secretary makes use of it, however it’s an excellent worse illegality if the company card is given to somebody unrelated to the corporate. Candidate Jinsook Lee will know higher than I concerning the obligation of care of supervisor. Even when she or he is an government secretary, it is vitally possible that she or he licensed using a company bank card for private acquire to be described as an confederate or principal responsible of a breach of belief.
I additionally hope that our personnel listening to might be a chance to confirm the {qualifications}, skills, and work capability to deal with the duties as Chairman of the Korea Communications Fee. The applicant is making these efforts from our listening to committee members in useless below the Yoon Seok-yeol administration, the prosecutors and the police are liable for such investigations. That is all.
