- no chr.!
4.09 General Election in S.K. - the final results (according to K. Herald):
Grand National Party - 153
United Democratic Party - 81
Liberty Forward Party - 18
Pro-Park Geun-hye Alliance - 14
Democratic Labor Party - 5
Creative Korea Party - 3
Independents - 25
..and the New "Progressive" Party got: NOTHING!
Well, finally it's a brutal result - but it was foreseeable. Especially the almost total defeat of the "left"/"progressive" parties (DLP, NPP).
WELCOME TO THE REALITY!! (sorry!!!)
And of course the S.K. bourgeoisie is now in party mood:
☞ Progressives Sidelined (Korea..)
☞ Conservatism Sweeps Korea (..Times)
*****
But, hopefully, this development is terminating any illusions about the current (capitalist!!) system! Just remember the spring 2004 when hundreds of thousands of citizens - among them many labour, anti-war, human right activists were demonstrating to defend Roh Moo-hyun (during the impeachment campaign against him), despite the fact that he already proved that his policy also stands just for (increasing) exploitation and oppression(*).. So - hopefully - the current (political) development will lead to a situation where something like that never will be happen anymore!!
* Almost a half year before the impeachment campaign the Roh dov't started with the massive crackdown against un-documented migrant workers. In spring 2004 our sit-in strike in Myeong-dong took place since almost 4 month. And during the anti-impeachment protests, many rallies were held on the same place were we had our sit-in strke (Myeong-dong Cathedral compound) and we were criticized by a large number of political activists (many of them called themselves "leftwing", "progressive", even "socialist"..) about our strong anti-gov't/anti-Roh positions..^^
