South Korean President Lee Jae-ming announced on the 8th that he was the new chief secretary of government affairs, publicity and civil affairs, and is accelerating the candidates for the first phase of the Presidential Office's staff lineup.
From the characteristics of this candidate, we can see that there is no "surprise" promotion, but a person with rich experience and verified strength from Li Zaiming's standpoint is enabled.
On the 4th of the month on the day of his tenure, Li Zaiming appointed the Secretary-General, Security Office Director, Security Office Director, and Spokesperson, and on the 6th, the Chief Secretary of Policy Office, Economic Growth Chief Secretary, Financial Planning Assistant, and Social Secretary.
Through the publication on the same day, among the four chief secretary officials under the Secretary-General, three other positions were full, except for the newly established listening and unified chief secretary.
Among the chief secretary of the policy office, all chief secretary except the chief secretary of AI (artificial intelligence) future planning are filled.
The chief candidate of the presidential office is characterized by the activation of people with long-term experience in related fields.
This can be explained by Li Zaiming's personnel principles: "strength" and "can be invested immediately". Regardless of factors such as age, the candidates who are most suitable for the position were nominated.
The Chief Secretary of Government Affairs Yu Xianghu, who was appointed on the same day, is a heavyweight in the four-choice election of the Communist Party of China. He served as a representative in the court and chairman of extraordinary countermeasures. In 2016, he passed the impeachment prosecution case of former President Park Geun-hye, etc., and has high political capabilities.
Some analysts believe that the promotion of Yu Xianghu's chief secretary of government affairs was a "political predecessor" who had been with a longer experience than that of Presidential Secretary Jiang Xunzhi, in order to focus on communication between the government and the country.
Chief Secretary of Civil Affairs Oh Kwang-soo and Lee Jae-ming were at the same time (Issue 18) and have invested in the investigation of major corruption incidents such as Hyun-chol, the second son of former President Kim Yong-san, financial fraud of Han Bao Group, and the Samsung Secret Funding incident.
It is reported that when Wu Minzhen's chief secretary Wu Minzhen made a comment, the Democratic Party, the Reform Party and others raised concerns about "special origin", but Li Zaiming believes that to complete the procuratorial reform, people with a high understanding of the procuratorial organization must be employed.
A person in charge of the Presidential Office said: "Li Jae-ming is the biggest victim of the political procuratorate. Judicial reform is carried out through law. We also confirmed Chief Secretary Wu's will for judicial reform. We will not make some worried people worry."
Lee Kyu-won, chief secretary of propaganda and communication, was also a media person who worked at the interview site for more than 30 years after joining the Central Daily News in 1988.
Secretary Secretary General Jiang Xunzhi explained the promotion background and said: "I am from an objective and insightful media person. I am the best candidate to lead the new government's will to reform and the communication between the people. I will always put communication with the people first."
Previously, Lee Jae-ming appointed Kim Rongfan, the first official of the Ministry of Planning and Finance, who was a former official from the Orthodox Economic Official, to take the lead in commanding the benign economic activation, international tariff war, virtual asset regulation revolution, etc.
In addition, Ha Jun-kyung, chief secretary of economic growth, served as a professor in the Department of Economics of Bank of Korea and Hanyang University, and was involved in physical and theoretical, and had a high understanding of the entire economy such as macroeconomics and industrial policies.
Ryu De-hyun, a professor at the Central University of Korea, was promoted to the newly established chief financial planning assistant.
The Presidential Office explained that Yoo De-hyun was a financial expert at the Korean Taxation Research Institute, a think tank in the taxation and finance field. He was selected as a person who could quickly practice Lee Jae-ming's proposal for economic recovery and practical government national politics.
With Li Zaiming's first phase of the system, it is expected that the first phase of the cabinet will take some time.
Relevant persons from the Presidential Office said: "Now candidates for the Prime Minister are preparing for a hearing. After the hearing, (other candidates for the State Councilor) must proceed step by step, so first of all, we have to wait for the appointment of the Prime Minister."
In particular, Li Zaiming decided to be invited to attend the G7 summit held from the 15th to the 17th (local time), so some observations believe that the formal announcement of the formation of the cabinet will be carried out in the future.
