[세종=뉴스핌] Reporter Jeong Seong-hoon = Prime Minister Han Deok-soo said on the 5th, “I hope that the Korea-US relationship, which has developed into a ‘global comprehensive strategic alliance’ under the Yoon Seok-yeol administration, can further develop into a core axis of global security and prosperity with the newly launched US administration.” “He emphasized.
Prime Minister Han presided over a cabinet meeting held at the Seoul Government Complex on this day and said, “From our perspective, the 47th U.S. presidential election will be held tonight.”
At the same time, Prime Minister Han asked, “Please communicate closely with your counterparts in the next U.S. administration, including foreign affairs and trade, closely analyze the impact that the new administration’s policy changes will have on us, and prepare thoroughly.”
Prime Minister Han went on to say, “Uncertainty in the security situation surrounding us is growing, with North Korea participating in the Ukraine war and the Middle East war on the rise,” adding, “Our economy is performing above its potential growth rate, but the pace of recovery in the people’s economy is slowing down.” “The situation is still slow, and the legislative environment is not favorable in the ruling party ruling party,” he expressed concern.
He said, “At times like these, the Cabinet must renew its resolve and focus on creating results in national administration without being left alone,” and added, “Each ministry will carry out its duties within the year so that the public can feel the results of major national tasks and reform policies.” “Please complete the tasks that need to be completed within the year,” he instructed. He also ordered, “Please think deeply about what each ministry should do next year in line with the direction of government affairs, and prepare a proper action plan in advance.”
Next, Prime Minister Han said, “The audit of government affairs is over, and the budget session of the National Assembly begins in earnest from this week.” He added, “The Cabinet will discuss the purpose and effects of the budget under its jurisdiction with the National Assembly and the public so that the government’s budget plan is reflected as much as possible and can be passed without setbacks.” “Please explain it to everyone in detail and ask for their understanding,” he asked.
In addition, “Looking back on the past government audit process, many public officials experienced difficulties to the extent that normal work was difficult due to excessive requests for data, interviews, and explanations from the National Assembly,” and ministers of each ministry closely consulted with the relevant standing committees to keep the administration in check. He requested that the government cooperate so that the National Assembly can properly do its job, while actively seeking ways to alleviate the heavy burden on public officials.
In particular, Prime Minister Han emphasized, “In order to revive the people’s economy and properly prepare for the future of the Republic of Korea, the government’s efforts alone have limitations. Cooperation and support from the National Assembly are essential.”
He said, “There are aspects of competition and strife between the ruling and opposition parties in the political realm that are inevitable, but I believe that the ruling and opposition parties cannot be separate when it comes to the people’s livelihood and the future of the Republic of Korea.” He added, “Above all, bipartisan support and cooperation for the four major reforms is essential.” “It is urgent,” he urged. In addition, he requested, “We ask for the National Assembly’s proactive cooperation so that next year’s budget bill can be processed within the statutory deadline, and the mountain of public welfare and economic bills can be processed as much as possible within the year, so that even a few wrinkles in the people’s livelihood can be alleviated.”
Finally, Prime Minister Han said, “Next week, November 14th, is the day when the ‘2025 College Scholastic Ability Test’ will be held. About 520,000 test-takers who are doing their best to achieve their dreams and goals are scheduled to take this test.” “We would like to express our support to the test takers and everyone who worked hard to support them,” he said.
At the same time, he asked, “Related ministries, including the Ministry of Education, should make every effort to ensure that the CSAT test runs smoothly, including safety inspection of the test site, security of question and answer sheets, traffic and noise management, and prevention of cheating.”
He also ordered, “As it is expected that students’ outside activities will increase after the CSAT, please pay special attention to the safety of students’ lives outside of school.”
