The first order was for the party and the floor leaders to "proactively push forward" the additional coronavirus disaster relief that he proposed.



[Lee Jae-myung/Democratic Presidential Candidate: Please actively promote the issue of additional payment of disaster aid that can take care of people's lives and revitalize the economy.]



Candidate Lee said, "Household debt is high and national debt is low. It is abnormal," he said.



Party leader Song Young-gil, who heard of Lee's request, added, "I will gather wisdom with the government," focusing on the promotion side.

[Song Young-gil/Democratic Party Representative: First, we will look at the tax revenue estimate and make sure that it can help people's lives in any way. But now, when Deputy Prime Minister Hong Nam-ki returns to Korea, we will discuss various things.]



'Real estate policy', a painful finger of the current governmentIn this regard, Candidate Lee has repeatedly advocated his promise of 'great reform'.



[Lee Jae-myung / Democratic Party Presidential Candidate: When they make unfair claims and attack unfairly, this is our chance to counterattack.

I think the environment has been created for real estate reform.]



Candidate Lee is also considering attending a 'civic group event that demands reform of the prosecution and the media' on Saturday.



It is interpreted as a move to tie up the strong supporters of the Democratic Party while promoting the image of reform.
