The recent President of the Republic of Korea, Yoon Suk-yeol, is like this, he has used a series of mysterious operations to "lose his play", and even the conservative ruling party of the Yoon Suk-yeol government has been "linked", forcing many old party members who have sworn "loyalty" to the party-state to jointly submit their resignations under the pressure of the South Korean election fiasco. As soon as the foreign appearance came out, even the "plaster flag" next door "couldn't help laughing", patted Yin Xiyue's shoulder and asked him if he needed help.
According to Japanese media reports, the Japanese government has planned to maintain cooperative relations with the Yin government, for which Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi also stressed at a press conference on April 11: "In order to continue to feel the improvement of relations between the two countries, we will continue to communicate closely." According to Japanese media analysis, the Kishida government made this statement, mainly because it was worried that if President Yoon Suk-yeol's cohesion declined, it could lead to a recurrence of the original conscripted labor lawsuit, and the security cooperation between Japan, the United States and South Korea would regress. The move of the Japanese side is not for the "rock-solid" Japan-South Korea relationship, but for the fear that Yoon Suk-yeol will "hit the street" and cause the next government to ask them for "money". In response, the South Korean side also made it clear that the expected personnel changes in the future will not include foreign policy aides, indicating that Yoon Suk-yeol intends to maintain diplomatic relations of "common prosperity between Japan and South Korea."
1. moved the doctor's cake but didn't eat it in his mouth, and Yoon Suk-yeol's poll "dropped" back.
People always get sick sometimes, but President Yoon Suk-yeol "doesn't dare to get sick." After all, he knows very well in his heart that now the doctors of the whole country are eager to "take advantage of his illness and kill him". Since February 20 this year, doctors in the Republic of Korea have been on strike for two months because they are dissatisfied with the expansion of medical schools. Against this backdrop, Yonhap News Agency reported as early as April 8 that the country's medical system has been overwhelmed by the "medical shortage" caused by the ongoing strikes. Six of the seven government-designated major emergency medical centers in Seoul have reduced or suspended some surgeries and treatments due to lack of staff, and the on-the-job doctors have changed from "doctors" to "patients" under the heavy workload.
Nationwide, more than 9 out of 44 emergency medical centers are unable to provide emergency services normally, which also leads to many Korean patients dying due to lack of timely treatment and missing the best time for treatment. Obviously, in this political entanglement around doctors and governments, a large number of Korean patients are the biggest victims. Even if the striking doctors can return to practice medicine, and Yoon Suk-yeol's polls can pick up, the lives of those patients who cannot be treated will never return. They have no grievances with doctors and the government, but they are regarded as political victims, so who should they turn to to reason?
From the perspective of professional ethics and personal qualities, it is indeed debatable that South Korean doctors are putting pressure on the government by abdicating their obligation to save lives. Because we don't see the slightest hint of "angels in white" in these striking doctors, these people are obviously more suitable to play the role of government bureaucrats who ride on the heads of the people, or selfish and mercenary market peddlers. But if the striking doctors are "villains," is the Yoon Suk-yeol government "decent" and "hero"? The answer, of course, is no, and to be precise, they should be "villains among villains."
It is believed that friends who are engaged in the medical profession have recited the "Hippocratic Oath" before officially entering the profession, which aims to warn doctors to maintain good professional ethics and take due responsibilities and obligations to patients, so as to prevent them from infringing on the interests of patients for their own selfish interests. And these striking doctors in South Korea obviously did not do this, and this is not the first time they have not taken the lives of patients seriously, let alone the first time they have confronted their own government head-on. In fact, since 2006, successive governments have been trying to increase the number of medical school admissions in response to the possible shortage of Korean doctors in 2035. The poll also showed that 76 percent of South Korean respondents supported the expansion of medical school enrollment, while only 16 percent opposed it.
However, the doctors under the leadership of the Korean Medical Association and the Korean Association of Intern Residents are too "united", and the government's efforts to reform health care have not been successful. To this day, the number of students enrolled in each class of the School of Medicine remains at 3,058. And the reason why Yoon Suk-yeol recently wants to challenge the medical reform that successive governments have failed to complete, to put it bluntly, is that once the matter is completed, this great achievement will bring him a large number of votes. But in his eagerness to move the "doctor's cake", he actually made two major mistakes.
One is to overestimate one's own ability, and the other is to underestimate the doctor's determination. In the past two months, not only have the polls brought about by the previous crackdown on "unscrupulous doctors" "falling" back, but the scale of the striking doctors has become larger and larger. Now that he has not eaten the cake in his mouth, he is forced by the doctors to "kneel down and apologize". In the end, Yoon Suk-yeol had to announce on April 4 that he would meet with Park Tan, chairman of the Emergency Countermeasures Committee of the Korean Association of Intern Residents, to exchange views on medical reform and other issues. However, due to the large gap between the positions of the two sides, the shadow of the doctors' strike will hang over the heads of every Korean citizen for a long time to come.
Second, the "onion dumping" threw out the "international incident", and the situation in the polls of Yoon Suk-yeol was very unfavorable
Green onions are used for eating, not for fun, but Yin Xiyue is a person who "does not take the usual path", and he can still make "international incidents" after inspecting the green onions in the supermarket.
Looking at the whole world, this kind of foreign appearance can only be done by "Commander Yin". According to information given by South Korean media, on March 18, Yoon Suk-yeol conducted a high-profile inspection of a local fresh food supermarket in Seoul in order to highlight the government's "remarkable effectiveness" in curbing food price increases. During the inspection, the lush, white and green green onions on the shelves quickly caught Yoon Suk-yeol's eyes, and then he "paced" to the booth with the unique steps of senior leaders, while throwing a bundle of green onions with a price tag of 875 won, and said to the officials on the side: "Hey~ This price seems to be very reasonable!". As soon as this remark came out, it immediately aroused the anger of the opposition parties and the people of the whole country, because anyone who lives at home in South Korea knows that except for the bundle of green onions in Yoon Suk-yeol's hand, which is only sold for 875 won, the price of green onions in all normal vegetable markets has risen to 3,000 to 4,000 won, reaching the highest price in recent years.
Since then, South Korea's green onions have been given another political meaning, that is, "Down with Yoon Suk-yeol" and have become a political weapon used by the opposition parties to mock Yoon Suk-yeol and the ruling party's failure to tackle inflation and the government's inability to curb soaring agricultural prices. South Koreans protesting Yoon Suk-yeol's resignation with green onions can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys, and South Korean businessmen quickly seized the business opportunity and put T-shirts with green onion logos, green onion-style keychains and other peripheral goods in the domestic market, attracting people to rush to buy. The lasting impact of this incident soon spread to neighboring Japan, drawing laughter from the Japanese people.
If people are unlucky, they will drink cold water and stuff their teeth, and farts will hit their heels. Presumably, Yin Xiyue himself would never have thought that "throwing onions" could also throw out an "international incident". As a result, on April 10, the day of the 22nd National Assembly election in South Korea, the Central Election Commission banned voters from bringing green onions into polling stations, saying that "this may affect voters to vote and interfere with the voting process." At the same time, the committee further advised people to leave "anything that could influence voters' decisions" outside polling stations, such as related items with green onions. Lee Jae-myung, leader of the main opposition Democratic Party of Korea, quickly criticized the "three chapters of the law" proposed by the Election Commission on an ad hoc basis, saying, "I am 'shocked' by the statement that green onions are considered a political expression." What should not be in the election venue should be Dior's handbag, not some green onions. ”
Obviously, Lee Jae-myung's last sentence was a satire on the scandal that was exposed by the media in November last year that South Korea's first lady, Kim Keon-hee, accepted a Dior handbag worth about 3 million won from outsiders. At this moment, Yoon Suk-yeol will definitely regret another thing, that is, whether Lee Jae-myung's assassination was "too light" in the first place. As early as January 2 this year, Lee Jae-myung was attacked by a man with a knife while visiting Gadeokdo Island in Busan, resulting in a neck injury. But because South Korean doctors were not busy with the strike at the time, Lee Jae-myung was treated in time and soon returned to politics as Yoon Suk-yeol's main opponent. But regardless of whether South Korean voters "vote with green onions", the largest opposition party, the Democratic Party of Korea, easily won nearly 190 of the 300 seats in the National Assembly, while Yoon Suk-yeol's National Power Party and its satellites won 108 seats, down from the 114 seats they control in the outgoing National Assembly. At present, many of South Korean Prime Minister Han Duck-so and many of Yoon's top aides have resigned en masse on April 11, intending to open the way for Yoon Suk-yeol to reshuffle the government.
Youdao is not afraid of god-like opponents, but is afraid of pig-like teammates, and Yoon Suk-yeol is the "pig teammate" of his party. In recent months, analysts, local media and even critics within the party have warned Mr. Yoon that he is "out of touch" with ordinary people and that he does not even know the price of local food. He was also extremely "arrogant" in dealing with the opposition, the doctors' strike, and the corruption accusations of his wife, Kim Keon-hee, which further exacerbated the antipathy of the people and the opposition parties. It is not so much that South Korean voters "like" Lee Jae-myung as they "hate" Yoon Suk-yeol so much that they gave their votes to his rivals. And as Lee Jae-myung's party won the election, he immediately criticized Yoon Suk-yeol's "pro-US and pro-Japan" diplomatic moves.
Take Lee Jae-myung and Yoon Suk-yeol as a comparison, it is obvious that Yoon Suk-yeol is more obedient to the United States and Japan. It is precisely because of this that the Japanese authorities have hurriedly stated that they are very fond of "Yoon-chan" and that Japan looks forward to further cooperation with the Yoon Suk-yeol government. A relevant person from the Japanese government also made it clear that "supporting the Yoon Suk-yeol government is very much in Japan's national interest." It can be seen that the "Locust Army" still does not want Yoon Suk-yeol to step down, after all, from Japan's point of view, Yoon Suk-yeol carries the future of the "Japan-South Korea Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere" that the Japanese are looking forward to.
