Gov't's stance on controversial amended labor bill

Labor Minister Lee Jeong-sik (R) announces the government's stance on the unilateral referral by opposition parties of an opposition-led controversial labor bill, criticized as "the law guarantying illegal labor strikes," to a parliamentary plenary session at the government complex in Seoul on May 24, 2023, calling for the opposition parties to reconsider the move. Earlier in the day, the National Assembly's environment and labor committee, chaired by an opposition lawmaker, successfully pushed forward the referral in a vote amid the ruling party's strong opposition.
