President Moon promised'free vaccination for all citizens' related to the corona vaccine at his New Year's speech.
[President Moon Jae-in: Next month, we can start vaccination.
We will ensure that all citizens receive free vaccinations in order of priority.]
President Moon emphasized securing'vaccine sovereignty', saying that he would continue to encourage the development of his own vaccine.
Regarding the real estate issue, he said, focusing on'residential stability'.
[President Moon Jae-in: I am very sorry for the people who are discouraged by the difficulties of housing.
With special emphasis on supply expansion, we will quickly come up with a variety of housing supply plans that can be quickly effective.]
Last year's New Year's speech said, "I will never lose in the war against real estate speculation," and at the Blue House meeting in August last year, "The rise in house prices has started to subside." In person, it was the first time I expressed my apology.
In particular, the fact that the New Year's address also mentioned the expansion of housing supply, which has been suggested as a solution in the market, is a notable change.
President Moon said, "I finally see the end of the dark tunnel," and predicted that in the first half of this year, our economy will recover to pre-corona levels.
At the same time, they pledged to'overcome the crisis that narrows the gap' by putting in a 5 trillion won more job budget in the first quarter to create 1,040,000 jobs for the vulnerable and to expand the employment safety net.
An official at the Blue House said, "The free vaccination and apology related to real estate were finally decided by President Moon."
