[Reporter Kim Hoyoung]      <\/p>\n<p refid=\"2\">Regarding police reform, President Lee Jae Myung pointed out on the 1st, &#8220;There are very few loach-like beings that blur the well, and it is regrettable that most sincere police officers seem to be defamed and self-esteem is undermined.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p refid=\"3\">&#8220;The majority of good police are doing their best (in their duties),&#8221; President Lee said at a Cabinet meeting at Cheong Wa Dae.<\/p>\n<p refid=\"4\">&#8220;Criticism against the police has been increasing recently, but police play a very big role not only in maintaining the national order but also in the service of the people,&#8221; President Lee said. &#8220;If most of them were corrupt, incompetent and irresponsible, the organization could not have survived.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p refid=\"5\">&#8220;Even if everything seems problematic and irresponsible, it is a small number, and the overwhelming majority are faithfully playing their role in place,&#8221; he said. &#8220;In fact, the police are very short of manpower compared to the actual work they do.&#8221; He also mentioned that the main cause is the heavy workload (of mistakes coming out of the field).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p refid=\"6\">In addition, he said, &#8220;I hope that the police officers who work hard on the front line will cheer up,&#8221; adding, &#8220;It is also a time when the holiday (Chuk-soon to come) is more difficult for &#8216;citizens in uniform&#8217;. I offer words of encouragement.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p refid=\"7\">Meanwhile, in connection with the disappearance of nine Koreans due to the great flood in Nepal, he ordered the relevant ministries to &#8220;make every effort to search early based on close cooperation with the Nepal government and business officials.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p refid=\"8\">&#8220;If possible, we hope to actively promote the additional input of available equipment such as rescue personnel and helicopters,&#8221; he said, adding, &#8220;Fortunately, the Nepalese government seems to have requested cooperation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p refid=\"9\">President Lee said, &#8220;In particular, the local situation is very bad due to concerns over secondary floods and bad weather, and we should pay special attention to the safety of the search personnel,&#8221; adding, &#8220;We wish the missing people a speedy recovery and thank the officials of the rapid response team who are doing their best despite bad conditions.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\uc0ac\uc9c4 \ud655\ub300 President Lee Jae Myung speaks at the 38th Cabinet Meeting in 2026 at Cheong Wa Dae&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":139536,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[5369,31,146,71023,67477,71024,33],"class_list":["post-139535","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-south-korea","tag-cabinet-meeting","tag-korea","tag-lee-jae-myung","tag-loach","tag-missing-persons","tag-quick-response-team","tag-south-korea"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139535","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=139535"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139535\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/139536"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=139535"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=139535"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=139535"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
