Moon asked President Shim Sang-jung, who asked him to confirm his "nested" authorship, why?

The National Diet recently organized a workshop "The Secret of Birth", which is the standard material of Korean dramas, on interdependent proportional representation. At a meeting with the Korean Democratic Party on Oct. 23, Lee Chae-chan said, "This does not mean that the proportional representation of a minority party would be 100% conducted."

The three parties demanded a clear confirmation of paternity, saying that "the Democratic Party did not respect the commitment made at the general elections as well as the system of proportional representation of President Moon Jae.

On the other hand, the Democratic Party replied that the commitment was a proportional representation of the party list by region and that interdependent proportional representation was a way to do it. It is argued that there is only one difference in the selection of the method, but not in a broad context. Finally,

The Democratic Party "nested" is one of the "

Shim Sang-jung, chairman of the Special Committee on Political Reform, asked President Moon, who had ordered the reform of the electoral system based on the nested proportional representation system, to unveil a firm position.

At a press conference held at the headquarters of the National Assembly on December 29, Representative Shin said: "There is confusion about the fact that I do not know if my proportional representation within the Democratic party is my child or not. " If Mr. Moon performs a paternity test (Democratic position) I hope that I can speed up the pace of my life. "

The Democratic Party was in the position that it was a bit unfair that the controversy "Yoon Ho-jung, secretary-general of the Democratic Party, said at the press conference:" For proportional representation of the list of the party functions effectively, the proportional representation seats must be increased. There is already a favorable opinion to increase the proportion of seats. Including the possibility of the introduction of "

He withdrew from the "reaffirmation". Although she does not oppose a nested proportional representation, it is simply a matter of judging whether 100% acceptance is based on the outcome of the special interjection. Yoon said, "If the party adopts the proportional representation system, it can take the procedure if necessary, but it is better to adapt the party in the future.I do not think so," he said. .

The statement of the representative also explained that it was not a "nested opposition" unconditionally. Mr. Yoon said, "This representative did not object to the proportional representation system, but said that the introduction of this system posed some problems." We are concerned about the political minority (such as women and people with disabilities). "There is a positive part to the proportional representation system, but when we become interdependent, we interpret how we can use these devices and that we need such a complement."

Between "picking" and increasing the number of members

However, he showed a somewhat pbadive attitude on the issue of "increasing the number of members of parliament", which is a sufficient condition for the nested proportional representation system.

While retaining the current 300 seats, the government is trying to improve the system, but if that was not possible, it could be accepted. Yoon said: "I hope that the electoral reform plan will be worked out as long as the parliamentary elections are held," he said. "If the proposal fails to be published, it does not mean that it will not be accepted."

He also referred to the "reduction of districts". Yoon said: "However, there is a way to increase the size of the 100 PR seats, but there is also a way to reduce the district to 200 seats."

However, the contraction of the provincial district has been ruled out, as it is a virtually unrealistic plan. Representative Park Yong-jin, a member of the same party, explained on the 20th that he had been questioned about the debate held in Mapo-gu, Seoul, and said: "Reducing the number of districts should not attract active members. "

This is why members of the special council, such as Professor Emeritus of the University of Korea, insist on increasing the number of board members. It is argued that the adoption of a small-scale electoral system within the current presidential system and the guarantee of proportionality and representation without increasing the number of members of the legislature is an unfortunate situation.

In particular, Professor Choi said: "Even though the number of Korean legislators is increased from 350 to 360, the representation rate is not very high," he said. "At present, the number of representatives elected by the citizens must enlarge."

"The attempt to bring the discussion back to its starting point is not an attempt at consensus.

He focused on increasing the number of lawmakers as the basic principle of the proportional representation system, emphasizing that the people's share was in the "reform of the National Assembly". "Although the National Assembly has talked about reforms many times, there have not been enough convincing people," he said. "This is a sign that the National Assembly is responding by proposing more bold reforms."
