KCNA Flails Corrupt GNP of S. Korea

KCNA

    Pyongyang, December 17 (KCNA) -- The Grand National Party of south Korea is censured as a "party of thieves" in the wake of the disclosure of more illicit money squeezed from tycoons on the threshold of the "presidential election" last year. It was newly disclosed on December 12 that it received 10 billion won from Hyundai Motor just before the election. This means that the GNP had received a total of over 60 billion won from business groups after putting pressure upon them: 10 billion from SK Group, 15.2 billion from Samsung Group and 15 billion from LG Group.
    The prosecution in charge of investigation claims that it would reach hundreds of billions if bribes it received from other enterprises are added to it.
    It is well known to the world that the south Korean "policy" is a corrupt one swayed by money. But history knows no such precedent in which the GNP pressurized big businesses to provide it with a stupendous amount of money, threatening that it would label them as "undesirable ones" when it comes to power.
    No wonder, even the conservative media that has strongly supported the GNP traitorous group dismissed it as a "corruption-ridden party", branding its hideous financial scam as "an act of organized violence."
    The GNP insisted at the outset of the investigation that it had received not a single penny. But it is now driven to such a tight corner as its scandals are irrefutable and the public and other political parties are strongly demanding its immediate dismantlement.
    Much upset by this, the GNP unilaterally railroaded the "bill on the special inspection of scandals of president's close associates" through the "National Assembly," taking advantage of its dominant position there, in a bid to divert elsewhere the focus of the prosecution. And Choe Pyong Ryol, representative of the party, even staged a clumsy farce of attacking other parties, asserting that "it is not only the GNP that has received illicit money".
    A family nearing its end has frequent fights. Former GNP President Ri Hoe Chang staged the burlesque of making an apology full of lame excuses and privately blamed Choe for driving the situation to such a deplorable state while Ri's associates are locked in a fierce free-for-all to shift the blame for it onto others.
    What matters is that this corrupt party drove the figure who took the lead in the north-south cooperation undertakings to death by brandishing the sword called "the law on special inspection" and cried out for a stern punishment of others until recently.
    This clearly proves that the GNP coteries are thieves putting even Mafia into shade and human scum that have to be eliminated immediately for the sake of the democratization of the south Korean society, to say nothing of the inter-Korean cooperation.
    Choe Pyong Ryol must frankly confess the truth behind all cases of corruption of the GNP and quit the political arena before talking about the "special inspection."
