The issue of “recruitment” South Korea chairman to submit bill to establish foundation The future is unclear December 18th 12:32

In order to solve the problem of “recruitment” during the Pacific War, the chairman of the Korean Parliament, Mun Hi-san, will establish a new foundation and pay a courtesy to the plaintiffs in trials in Korea. The bill will be submitted to the Diet on the afternoon of the 18th. However, there are some members who did not respond to President Mun's call for joint submission, and the future after submission is unclear.

According to a member of the Korean Parliament, Chairman Moon Hysan will take steps to jointly submit with the ruling and opposition parties some bills compiled on the morning of the 18th to solve the problem of “recruitment” during the Pacific War. The policy is to proceed and submit it in the afternoon.

The bill calls for donations from both Japanese and Korean companies and citizens to establish a new “Memory, Reconciliation and Future Foundation”, and the Korean government will also contribute operating expenses.

In addition, the Foundation says that the donation collected will be paid as a financial source, and the subject is a plaintiff who won the trial in South Korea as “worked at a Japanese company”.

President Moon appears to be thinking about submitting a bill before the Japan-Korea summit, which is being coordinated next week, to improve the relationship.

The Korean newspaper also reported on this on the morning of the 18th, among which the Seoul newspaper did not respond to the appeal of Chairman Mun's co-submission, in response to some plaintiffs and civil society opposition from the trial. I tell you that there is.

In addition, the Moon Jae-in administration has not revealed its position, and the future after submitting the bill is unclear.
