오신환, 한국경제 죽음의 길…엉터리 정책 멈춰야

South Korea's minor opposition Bareun Mirae Party has strongly criticized the Moon Jae-in administration's economic policies,... saying,... they're driving the economy into a hole.
In a policy speech Friday,... floor leader Oh Shin-hwan claimed... the government's so-called income-led growth policies have made income polarization worse,... and back-to-back massive minimum wage hikes have hurt small business.
Oh said,... if the government wants to revive the economy,... it needs to overhaul its economic policies... and work with rival parties.
He slamed the government's proposed extra budget,... saying only a small portion of it is directed at the economy... and that it'll have little impact on boosting growth.
Oh also called for a parliamentary probe into the recent entry of a North Korean fishing boat into a South Korean port that went undetected for days... to see whether there was any attempt at a cover-up,... and he called on the defense minister and national security advisor to resign.
