(2007) "Is the Government Attempting to Reverse the Roh Moo-hyun Reforms?"

The Ministry of Health and Welfare convened an expert briefing on the government's pension reform proposal on the morning of the 18th (December 2018), chaired by Minister Park Neung-hoo. At the session, Dr. Yoon Seok-myung of the Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs (KIHASA) delivered a pointed critique: "Were former President Roh Moo-hyun and former Minister Yoo Si-min simply wrong? In 2007, they sought not only to lower the income replacement rate but also to raise the contribution rate to 12.9%. It is difficult to comprehend why the Moon Jae-in administration—which succeeded the Roh government—would now seek to reverse that course."
